Ethereum ecosystem hits record 24,192 TPS

The Ethereum ecosystem recently recorded a new high of 24,192 transactions per second (TPS) when Layer-2 protocol Lighter was included in the count.

This milestone underscores Ethereum’s scalability progress — especially following upgrades like Pectra and Dencun — and raises expectations for 100,000+ TPS in future.

Yet analysts warn: while transaction throughput is soaring, value accrual to ETH and the mainnet remains a question as many benefits shift to the L2 layer.

💬 Do you believe Ethereum is ready for 100K TPS — and will that translate into ETH price upside?

ETH hits $3K — could a major short squeeze be brewing?

Ethereum’s price dropped sharply to around $3,000, triggering liquidations worth over a billion dollars in long positions.
Yet, data suggests there’s over $7 billion in short exposure waiting above the $3.8K–4K range — a setup that could fuel a massive short squeeze if buyers regain control.

Should ETH hold the $2.8K–$3K support area, even a modest rebound might spark cascading short liquidations and send prices rallying faster than expected.

💬 Is ETH quietly building momentum for a $4K comeback?

Besides the number $FOLKS , you should also keep an eye on the number $JCT , I think it can be shorted.

Currently, I haven't shorted yet because I'm waiting for a good entry.

Missed the $ZEC pump? Don't miss the "Privacy Wave 2.0" $DASH with & $ZEN

$ZEC 's explosion proves one thing: Big money is rotating into the Privacy Narrative. 🚀

If you missed $ZEC , don't FOMO. When a sector leader pumps, the smart money looks for the next coins in that sector that haven't moved yet.

Keep your eyes on these 2, both available on Binance Spot:

ZEN (Horizen): Uses the exact same core zk-SNARKs tech as $ZEC . Its market cap is still tiny compared to its potential.

DASH: The OG privacy coin with its PrivateSend feature. Big brand, trusted, and still sitting at a great accumulation price.

ZEC led the charge. Now it might be ZEN and $DASH 's turn to run.

Galaxy Digital cuts Bitcoin year-end target to $120K

In response to Bitcoin’s drop below the $100K mark, Galaxy Digital has trimmed its 2025 end-of-year forecast for Bitcoin from $185K to approximately $120K.
The firm points to heavy whale distribution, investor rotation into AI and gold, and what it calls the “maturity era” of Bitcoin — featuring lower volatility and more institutional absorption.
Although still positive on Bitcoin’s long-term fundamentals, Galaxy cautions that unless the $100K support holds, the rally’s speed and magnitude may be limited.

💬 Do you believe Bitcoin’s next stop is $120K — or could it still aim for $185K by year-end?
