Ethereum news, ETH price, Layer 2 scaling and protocol upgrades

Ethereum is the leading smart-contract platform, and our Ethereum coverage tracks ETH price, validator activity and staking yields, network upgrades such as Dencun and Pectra, the Layer 2 rollup ecosystem (Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, zkSync, Starknet, Polygon zkEVM, Linea, Scroll), and gas-fee dynamics on mainnet. We also follow MEV and proposer-builder separation, EIP proposals, restaking protocols like EigenLayer, liquid staking via Lido and Rocket Pool, and the broader DeFi and NFT activity flowing through the Ethereum execution layer. Articles merge multiple primary sources and cite the original publications at the bottom of every page.
