Also, in a blog post published Thursday, the Etheruem Foundation announced plans to integrate zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs throughout the Ethereum stack, starting with a Layer 1 zkEVM. Initially, validators will be able to choose clients that verify multiple offchain execution proofs from different zkVMs, rather than re-executing blocks. This setup leverages Ethereums existing client diversity model for added security, with minimal protocol changes needed to support pipelined execution in the upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade.

Although adoption of ZK clients will start small, its expected to grow as trust builds. When a majority of validators are confident in ZK proofs, Ethereum can increase the gas limit and shift to proof verification as the default.

To enable this shift, the Foundation is defining “realtime proving” standards for zkVM developers. These include 10-second latency for 99% of blocks, open-source code, minimum 128-bit security, sub-300KiB proofs without trusted setups, and hardware limits of $100K in cost and 10kW in power use — making home proving feasible.

While proving in the cloud is already affordable, the emphasis is on optimizing for decentralized, at-home setups. The Foundation expects ongoing innovation toward these goals ahead of Devconnect Argentina, with zkVMs poised to become critical infrastructure for Ethereums future.

Finally, yesterday, lockchain analytics platform Glassnode noted a rare occurrence in the derivatives market: ether‘s 24-hour futures trading volume briefly surpassed that of Bitcoin. According to the firm, ETH futures notched $62.1 billion in daily volume, edging out Bitcoin’s $61.7 billion.
