The Ethereum Foundation is entering a new phase with a structured treasury policy, shifting from passive ETH holdings to strategic deployment. Guided by “Defipunk” values, EF plans to support privacy-first, trust-minimized DeFi while improving financial transparency and counter-cyclical engagement
Katana, a new DeFi chain, incubated by Polygon and GSR, is introducing innovative economic incentives to attract liquidity and generate sustainable yields for its users. The project has already opened "pre-deposits" and is aiming for a launch in June.
A new blockchain, Plasma, is positioning itself as purpose-built for stablecoins. The chain will be fully EVM-compatible and promises zero fees on USDT transfers. But beyond marketing appeal, what core features do stablecoins truly need from the underlying blockchain?

Stacks brings smart contracts to Bitcoin via sBTC, a 1:1 BTC-backed token with decentralized custody. While 3,000 BTC is on-chain, most DeFi activity still revolves around STX. A planned 2,000 BTC cap increase aims to unlock more BTC use cases and grow Bitcoin-native DeFi on the network
Recent Ethereum wallet upgrades greatly improve usability but also introduce new risks: hackers can now exploit a single signed off-chain message to compromise your wallet.
