🚨 Ethereum Makes a Technical Pivot
A major cryptography decision is emerging inside Ethereum.
The Foundation's research direction is shifting away from Poseidon for L1, with SHA-2 and BLAKE2s among the alternatives being favored.
This doesn't mean Poseidon has suddenly become "broken." Ethereum has spent years funding Poseidon research and cryptanalysis, and the current decision reflects changing assumptions about performance and proof systems.
For $ETH investors, understanding the technology behind the asset matters just as much as watching the price.
