As blockchain applications continue to grow, scalability issues have become a core challenge that public chains cannot avoid. Ethereum (ETH) has been vigorously developing Layer-2 scaling solutions in an attempt to increase throughput and reduce transaction fees while avoiding long-term congestion on the mainnet. This strategy has achieved certain success in user experience and is also seen as an important pillar for Ethereum's mainstream adoption. However, from an economic model perspective, this pillar is facing pressure. Data shows that Ethereum's on-chain revenue has significantly declined this year, dropping from approximately $2.52 billion at the beginning of the year to about $604 million. Behind this revenue decline is the reality that transaction fees are being heavily diverted to Layer-2 networks.

Data shows that Bitcoin has fallen more than 3% in the past 24 hours, with the price dropping from nearly $90,000 in early Monday trading to a low of $85,833, hitting a new low since early December. Ethereum also performed poorly, declining over 4% intraday to $2,955; Ripple dropped about 4.5%, falling back to $1.90, also hitting a new low since December.

Wormhole's cross-chain technology allows assets to be securely transferred between different blockchains and is regarded as a key infrastructure in the current multi-chain ecosystem. RLUSD has previously been issued on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum mainnet. Ripple stated that expanding to Ethereum L2 is crucial for building a more scalable, efficient, and interoperable financial system.

As the flow of spot Ethereum ETF funds improves, the price structure of Ethereum (ETH) is gradually showing bullish signals. According to the latest market data, as of December 15th Asian time, Ethereum's price is approximately $3,113. Although it has retreated compared to last week, positive changes are emerging in both technical and capital aspects, creating conditions for a subsequent rebound.

At the same time, the overall liquidation pressure in the crypto market has increased, also weighing on ETH prices. However, based on current indicators, the market may have entered a consolidation phase.

The digital native bond was listed and issued on the International Securities Market of the London Stock Exchange and settled instantly through the European Clearing Bank's digital financial market infrastructure. The platform is operated by a central securities depository and is a regulated, permissioned DLT system that balances efficiency improvements with compliance requirements.

Against this backdrop, Ethereum has become the main beneficiary, especially favored by whale funds.

The Prysm development team recently released an after-action report detailing the mainnet anomaly that occurred after the Fusaka upgrade on December 4, 2025. The issue once threatened the stability of the Ethereum network but was ultimately resolved thanks to the diversity mechanism of client implementations. The report indicates that the problem occurred at epoch 411,392 (December 4 at 21:49 UTC) after the Fusaka upgrade was activated. Prysm consensus clients, when processing certain proof data, triggered大量历史状态的重复计算, leading to rapid exhaustion of CPU and memory resources, causing nodes to experience denial-of-service (DoS)-style performance degradation. This was not a protocol design flaw but an implementation issue within clients under specific boundary conditions.
