According to previous news, for the London upgrade time of the Ethereum test network, Ropsten is scheduled for block height 10399301 (June 9), Goerli is scheduled for block height 4979794 (June 16), and Rinkeby is scheduled for block height 8813188 ( June 23), the main network is still scheduled to be upgraded on July 14. After the first test network is successfully forked, the main network client upgrade block will be determined.

On June 10th, official news, Ethereum 2.0 client Lighthouse released v1.4.0 version, this is a low-priority update, mainly includes some optimizations, these optimizations can reduce the cost of RAM, CPU, disk I/O for beacon chain nodes. The impact of O and Eth1 nodes. Notable features in this release include: reduced memory footprint, on mainnet this reduced memory usage from ~6 GB to ~1.5 GB; improvements to avoid disk and memory intensive operations; 80% reduction in Eth1 queries; Beta Windows supported and currently not recommended for production use.

Ethereum Developer Tim Beiko Explains Why the Berlin Upgrade Didn't Incorporate EIP-2537

Ethereum developer Tim Beiko explained why the Berlin upgrade was not included in EIP-2537, saying that its Berlin upgrade needs more testing, and the team generally agrees, but when we were discussing including it in the London upgrade, someone suggested that we should use A new library, and possibly modifying the gas cost, which requires more testing as it doesn't cut the gas. Also, it went from a very good to have (pre-deposit contract kicks in to verify deposits) to "we need this before sharding", so the urgency is greatly reduced. Earlier news, Ethereum developers updated the Berlin hard fork draft: including five EIPs, removing EIP-2537. EIP-2537 would have introduced a new type of operation (BLS curve).

(1) The Gitcoin community decided to convert all AKITA donated by Vitalik Buterin into ETH through a proposal vote

In response to the Akita Inu (AKITA) donated to Gitcoin by Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, the Gitcoin community voted through a proposal to sell all AKITA and convert it into ETH. This proposal has not yet been implemented. It was previously reported that in mid-May, Vitalik Buterin sold a large number of meme tokens and donated the obtained ETH and some meme tokens, including donating 49 trillion AKITA to Gitcoin’s community multi-signature wallet.

(2) Polygon cooperates with game maker Xaya to launch games on the Ethereum side chain

Autonomous Worlds, the company behind DLT-enabled game maker Xaya, has struck a partnership deal with Polygon to launch games on its ethereum sidechain. The Xaya blockchain will be integrated into the Polygon sidechain compatible with Ethereum.

On June 10, Curve Finance officially announced on Twitter the launch of a new algorithm for exchanging volatile assets. The new version will allow for low-slippage swaps between "volatile" assets (such as ETH/WBTC pools) or between assets whose prices are constantly changing. The new pool will do this through internal oracles that rely on exponential moving averages (EMAs), as well as bonding curve models deployed by mainstream AMMs such as Uniswap. The pool has been integrated with 1inch Network, the Ethereum version includes USDT, WBTC and WETH, and the Polygon version includes am3Crv, WBTC and WETH. Similar to other typical cryptocurrency pools when exchanging or depositing, but with less average slippage. (Cointelegraph)

Hermez, the Ethereum Layer 2 expansion solution, is about to launch a community reward program. The first round of activities will distribute 200,000 HEZ tokens to early adopters of the Hermez network, and the number of airdrops is proportional to the amount of user deposits. The first round will start at 10:00 UTC on June 21 (18:00 Beijing time) and end at 9:00 UTC on June 28 (17:00 Beijing time).

(4) Ethereum privacy technology solution Aztec announced that it will open source

Official news, Ethereum privacy technology solution Aztec announced that all future code versions will be under the Apache2.0 license, and any software connected to the code released to the Ethereum mainnet will be open and open source.

(5) Hermez, the Ethereum Layer 2 expansion plan, will launch a community reward program on June 21

DefipulseAccording to the official news, the SKALE Network integrated development kit Truffle Box, the Ethereum expansion solution, allows developers to build applications on the SKALE network through the Truffle Box. SKALE is compatible with the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine), and all existing tools built for Ethereum can also run directly on the SKALE network. Alternatively, developers can use Truffle to compile and migrate existing smart contracts to the SKALE network.

The data shows that last week, the value of locked-up collateral on the chain dropped from US$65.74 billion to US$62.102 billion, a decrease of 5.5% a week; 155.4%. Specifically, the amount of ETH mortgages dropped from 9.724 million to 8.883 million last week, a drop of 8.6%; the amount of BTC mortgages dropped from 179,995 to 175,073, a drop of 2.7%.

The data shows that the average computing power decreased by 5.8% month-on-month, temporarily reporting 571.8TH/s; the average mining difficulty decreased by 5.1% month-on-month, temporarily reporting 7320 T; the activity on the chain decreased by 13.5% month-on-month; the network congestion on the chain decreased, and the average Gas The lowest dropped to 7 Gwei, reaching the lowest level of the year, and the total mining revenue fell by 3.7% month-on-month.

(1) Not just Ethereum, the test found that Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti limits the mining of multiple digital currencies

Last week, the RTX 3080 Ti went on sale for the first time. The RTX 3080 Ti restricts mining from the GPU level, and NVIDIA previously stated that it was targeting Ethereum. After testing by an organization, it was found that the RTX 3080 Ti Ethereum computing power is about 57MH/s, which is less than half of the RTX 3090 (120MH/s), and it is also not as good as the lower RTX 3080 (85MH/s). Further testing found that not only Ethereum, but also some relatively unpopular small currencies are also "unsuitable" with RTX 3080 Ti, such as Ethereum Classic, Ergo, RavenCoin, etc. The only one known to be unaffected seems to be ConFlux.

(2) Data: The Ethereum NVT ratio has been on the rise in the past few days

Data shows that Ethereum’s NVT ratio is currently trending upwards over the past few days, but its average value remains low. A low NVT ratio indicates that ETH's network is currently undervalued, meaning that market capitalization is more likely to appreciate than decline. Additionally, Ethereum’s exchange inflows hit a new low since October 2020. It can be inferred that after the inflow hit a new high of 780,000 on May 19, the selling pressure finally reached a breaking point. (AMBCrypto)
