The post Ethereum’s newest nonprofit wants to become Wall Street’s guide to crypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
For Ethereum Institutional’s founders, becoming an independent nonprofit rather than remaining within the foundation was a deliberate choice. “The EF has always been quite vocal about its principle of subtraction,” Dawson said, referring to the organization diving up responsibilities for the network to other organizations . “This is an example of that increasing decentralization, and the number of nodes participating in representing Ethereum.” Operating outside the foundation also gives the organization greater freedom, Walsh said. “We feel like we have a lot more autonomy and freedom to work as an independent entity,” he said. “We can get a bit more opinionated, and a bit more aggressive, in terms of being able to support these teams.” For years, the Ethereum Foundation has walked a careful line in how much influence it exerts over the ecosystem. Its mandate has larg
The post Ethereum Foundation Turns AI Loose on ETH Network to Find Bugs Before Hackers Do appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
In brief Ethereum Foundation researchers are using AI agents to red-team critical network infrastructure. The agents helped uncover a peer-to-peer software vulnerability that was later disclosed. AI-assisted audits have already surfaced bugs in blockchain projects, including Zcash. The Ethereum Foundation is using swarms of AI agents to attack Ethereum—before someone else does. In a blog post on Thursday, Ethereum Foundation researchers on the Protocol Security team said they have deployed a series of AI agents against the software Ethereum relies on, hunting for vulnerabilities in cryptographic systems, protocol code, and smart contracts. “We’ve been running coordinated AI agents against the kinds of systems the network depends on, like systems software, cryptographic code, and contracts that have to be right,” the researchers wrote. “The agents found real bug
The post Visa breaks higher after completing A-B-C correction, wave five targets new highs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Visa has delivered a very clean and almost textbook retracement from the 2025 highs. The decline unfolded as a clear three-wave A-B-C correction, reaching the 293–300 support zone, where we were looking for the completion of the pullback and a reaction from the previous gap area. Since then, price has developed a series of higher swing lows and has broken above the corrective channel resistance near 345, providing further confirmation that bullish momentum is returning. This suggests that wave five could now be underway, with the potential to push toward new yearly highs and possibly extend toward the 400 area. VISA Daily Chart In the short term, a temporary pullback would not be surprising. The broken corrective channel could now act as support around 342, while the Elliott Wave Oscillator may retrace toward the zero line, creating a potential setup for the n
The post Arbitrum fee sharing Expands Revenue Model with Robinhood Chain appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Arbitrum’s fee-sharing arrangement with Robinhood Chain is more than a billing detail — it’s a structural shift in how the Ethereum scaling network plans to monetize the growing wave of enterprise chains being built on its technology. Key takeaways Arbitrum collects 10% of fees generated on Robinhood Chain and every other Layer 2 built on its Orbit framework. Of that 10%, 8% flows to the ARB tokenholder-controlled treasury and 2% is directed toward development. Arbitrum One, the flagship rollup, sends 100% of its own fees to the treasury — a separate arrangement from the Orbit chain model. Robinhood Chain launched its mainnet on July 1 with tokenized stocks, onchain lending, and agentic trading built into Robinhood’s app. The fee-sharing model applies to any Orbit-based Layer 2, not solely Robinhood Chain, broadening the revenue scope for ARB holders. Arbitrum Fee Sharing on Ro
The post EDX Markets’ $76M Round: Wall Street’s Crypto Bet appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
EDX Markets just closed a fresh $76 million round, and the headline is less about the number and more about who is still writing checks for crypto infrastructure. The answer: the same crowd that obsesses over execution quality, counterparty risk, and post-trade reconciliation. That’s the quiet story of 2026. Not shiny tokens. Not slogans. Pipes. Order routing. Settlement. And a lot of institutional desks asking for a crypto stack that feels like the equities and FX stacks they already trust. EDX’s new capital was led by SBI Holdings, with reporting that SBI was the sole investor in the Series C. Add in a new OEMS link-up that pipes EDX’s central limit order book into a tool buy-side desks already use, and you can see the playbook forming. If you’re trying to read the room on Wall Street’s crypto appetite, this is it. They still want the plumbing.

The post Robinhood launched a Wall Street layer 2 chain and the market crowned a $150M cat coin first appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Robinhood launched the public mainnet of Robinhood Chain this month, describing it as a permissionless Layer 2 built on Arbitrum for tokenized stocks, real-world assets, DeFi lending, and AI-native finance. One week in, the chain’s loudest retail activity is driven by CASHCAT, a memecoin built on Robinhood’s own discarded “CashCat” name. The token reached nearly $150 million in market cap and over $159 million in 24-hour volume. CASHCAT gained liquidity, price charts, and social attention through Uniswap V3 pools and third-party launch and routing infrastructure, including Noxa.fun and Pump.fun, rather than through Robinhood’s own app-listing process. An explainer graphic outlines six steps showing how CASHCAT gained liquidity, price charts, and trading volume on Robinhood Chain without a formal listing.
