Ethereum researchers want to rein in staking; critics say it could backfire

A group of six Ethereum researchers and developers, including Ethereum Foundation‘s Justin Drake, has proposed changing the network’s issuance policy to cut validator rewards more sharply as the proportion of staked ETH rises.　　The draft, called the Tapered Issuance Burn and currently being assigned the provisional number EIP-8363, would burn an increasing fraction of validators consensus rewards as the amount of staked ETH approaches a fixed threshold of 60.25 million ETH (around 50% of the current ETH supply), at which point the deduction hits 100%. The changes would phase in over 18 months.Tapered Issuance Burn Ethereum Improvement Proposal. Source: Github　　The proposal has triggered backlash from developers, stakers and DeFi founders, who warn that the reward cuts could force out solo validators before larger institutions are affected, weaken institutional demand for ETH and disrupt DeFi markets built around staking yield.　　One of the proposal‘s authors, Jérôme de Tychey, said the changes are needed to address the rising share of Ether being staked, which passed 33% in April. The authors argue continued staking growth could concentrate ETH in large custodians and liquid staking providers, while unchecked issuance erodes Ether’s role as a neutral, trustless store of value.　　“Ever-growing issuance is a dilution tax on every

Who should regulate prediction markets？ Senators push Clarity Act changes

Senators have pushed to preserve state and tribal control over sports betting by seeking changes to the Clarity Act as Congress weighs federal crypto market legislation.　　During a Senate Indian Affairs Committee roundtable on Tuesday, Indian Gaming Association Vice Chairman Tehassi Hill argued that prediction markets tied to sports and casino events should remain subject to state and tribal gaming laws instead of falling under the exclusive oversight of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission.　　The discussion comes as the Senate works to advance the Clarity Act before lawmakers leave Washington for the August recess, with limited legislative time remaining before attention turns to the November elections.　　Supporters of the proposal see the cryptocurrency market structure bill as a possible vehicle to clarify the limits of the CFTCs authority over prediction markets.　　Senators seek Clarity Act changes over prediction markets　　Speaking before the committee, Indian Gaming Association Vice Chairman Tehassi Hill urged Congress to amend the Clarity Act to explicitly prevent “sports and casino gambling through prediction markets” from bypassing existing gaming rules.　　Hill said the legislation should make clear that state gaming laws and the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, rather than federal commodities law, govern those markets. Tribal gaming groups have argued that expanding federal

CLARITY or not, crypto isnt going back in the bottle: Bitwise

A failure to pass the CLARITY Act this week will put the bill in a “walking dead” state, but won‘t stop the crypto industry’s march forward, according to Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Hougan.　　In a blog post on Wednesday, Hougan said while many, including himself, have called it the “make or break” week for the CLARITY Act, the reality is that the crypto industry has made too much progress to “go back in the bottle.”　　“The reality is that Washington is always late to major technology shifts, and it has rarely mattered as much as people feared,” said Hougan.　　His comments come as the Senate faces an Aug. 5 deadline to advance the landmark crypto market structure bill before its summer recess, with many concerned that failure to pass this week could see the bill pushed into the next year as lawmakers focus on the midterm elections in November.　　Prospects for CLARITY this year fade　　Market observers are increasingly pessimistic about the CLARITY Acts passage this year. In July, Galaxy Research lowered its probability of the CLARITY Act passing in 2026 to 30%, while Polymarket currently shows a 23% chance of it being signed into law this year, down from 82% in February.　　On July

AI credit bubble could fuel Bitcoin ‘crack-up boom’ past $1M: Hayes

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes said the debt-fueled artificial intelligence infrastructure boom could end in a 2008-style credit crisis and predicted the resulting government liquidity response could drive Bitcoin (BTC) to $1 million or higher.　　In a Tuesday blog post, Hayes said investors have mistakenly treated spending on data centers and power infrastructure as high-growth technology investment rather than leveraged real estate. He said he expects lenders to finance excessive construction before a slowdown in AI capital expenditure exposes weaker borrowers.　　The thesis connects the trillion-dollar expansion of AI infrastructure to a potential new source of crypto-market liquidity. However, Hayes predicted crisis, government bailout and subsequent BTC rally remain speculative.　　Hayes described the AI boom as a “credit story like 2008 and not an earnings story like 2000.” He said BTC could remain between $60,000 and $70,000, with possible downside to $50,000, before the credit cycle and resulting liquidity response drive a recovery. Hayes also forecast that Ether (ETH) would reach $5,000 by year-end and said Maelstrom intends to build a significant position while selling out-of-the-money ETH put options.　　Hayes‘ latest outlook builds on his earlier views on AI’s competing effects on crypto liquidity. On May 13, he said US-China competition in AI would encourage

New Ethereum proposal would cut issuance to zero if staked ETH reaches $112 billion

Validators would still be paid the same way for doing the same work, and they keep all the transaction fees and tips they earn from building blocks. Only the newly created ETH gets burned. The deduction from validator rewards arrives slowly, phasing in over 18 months, with about six months before that while the upgrade ships, so roughly two years to adjust.　　The current curve never switches off. The proposed one hits zero at 50%. (Shaurya Malwa/CoinDesk)　　Six researchers signed the proposal, including Justin Drake of the Ethereum Foundation. It landed days before the deadline for smaller changes to be considered for Hegotá, Ethereums next network upgrade.　　The problem, as the authors see it, is that staking never stops paying. Even if every ETH were staked, the yield would still sit near 1.5%, so there is always a reason to add more.　　Jérôme de Tychey, one of the proposals authors, projects more than 70 million ETH staked by January 2028 if nothing changes. Past a certain level, the proposal states, extra stake makes Ethereum less secure rather than more, because the ETH ends up held by exchanges and staking providers instead of its owners, while small individual stakers get squeezed out.　　About 41 million ETH

Proof of Play shuts down despite a16z backing

Proof of Play announced on Aug. 4 that it will cease operations after failing to turn its blockchain gaming vision into a scalable and sustainable business.　　The studio said it could not build a product or business model that validated its Web3 gaming thesis at scale.　　The company did not disclose a final closure date, the number of employees affected or its remaining financial position. It also did not identify the buyer of mobile game Shiba Story Go or reveal the acquisition terms.　　The closure follows earlier efforts to preserve elements of Pirate Nation, Proof of Play‘s flagship blockchain game. The studio released the game’s client, smart contracts and artwork through public GitHub repositories rather than leaving all development materials inaccessible.　　Proof of Play could not make its Web3 model sustainable　　Proof of Play launched with a thesis that blockchain technology could give players lasting ownership and allow games to survive beyond their original developers. Its seed round was led by a16z and Greenoaks. Fortune reported that the company raised $33 million in September 2023.　　The studio focused much of that funding and development work on Pirate Nation, a fully onchain role playing game.
