Recently, the cryptocurrency market has felt somewhat uneventful—Bitcoin and Ethereum are both experiencing minor adjustments, and the short-term trend appears cautious. However, looking at the bigger picture, several major events are driving the industry forward.

The "cryptobank" system in Belarus has just been officially implemented, which means new regional policies are embracing digital assets. At the same time, TRUMP-themed tokens are experiencing large unlocks, maintaining market enthusiasm. These all reflect ongoing policy-level attention to the crypto ecosystem.

Even more interesting are the voices coming from Ethereum. Vitalik recently published a post discussing the technical blueprint for 2026, with the core idea of systematically repairing the regrets of the past decade regarding self-sovereignty and trustlessness. Specifically: using ZK-EVM and BAL technology to lower the barrier for full node operation, allowing ordinary people to participate in validation; verifying whether RPC return data is genuine through Helios; employing ORAM and PIR to achieve privacy queries for RPC; promoting social recovery wallets and time-lock mechanisms to reduce private key risks; making privacy payment experiences as smooth as regular transfers; enhancing privacy resistance under ERC-4337 and future native account abstraction frameworks; pushing for on-chain application UIs based on IPFS to reduce reliance on centralized servers.

These initiatives point toward a goal—the reconstruction of a "world computer" without single points of failure or central control. This is not just technological iteration but a reshaping of users' trust in Ethereum. Driven by both policy and technology, the crypto market is being pushed into a new stage.
