This thread compares zkVMs with zkEVMs, making a case for zkVMs. A zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) provides secure and verifiable computation through zero-knowledge proofs, offering a simpler alternative to the complex and resource-intensive zkEVMs. Taiko has implemented a multi-prover system to ensure continued security even if one type of proof is compromised.
This thread cites several factors for the bull case for Ethereum and an eventual $10,000+ price. The early pivot to Layer 2s and the commitment from innovative companies, like StarkWare and Coinbase, in building L2s demonstrates industry confidence. Even though L1 transaction costs remain high, the mainnet remains a place for the highest-security transactions, and the deflationary nature of ETH incentivizes investors to hold. Institutions and governments seem to be warming up to Ethereum, as demonstrated by BlackRock’s onchain fund and the CFTC’s declaration that Ethereum is a commodity.
Bitwise highlights Bitcoin's ability to let users hold and control their wealth independently of centralized institutions. Despite its volatility and lack of governmental endorsement, Bitcoin's value is underpinned by its scarce supply and high demand. Bitcoin skeptics fail to appreciate its resistant nature to censorship and the fundamental market principles that determine its pricing.

Cross-chain messaging protocol Wormhole has launched its token via airdrop - the token is available on Solana, with plans to connect to EVM-based chains using Wormhole Native Token Transfers (NTTs).
According to onchain data, the median Solana transaction latency is nearing the 1-minute mark. This is primarily driven by Wormhole airdrop stakers and the added congestion from Solana’s memecoin mania.
