Ethereum
Ethereum, a decentralized blockchain platform, has emerged as a prominent player in the world of cryptocurrencies. It is not just a digital currency like Bitcoin but also a platform that enables developers to build and deploy smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps). Ethereum's underlying technology, powered by its native cryptocurrency Ether [ETH], offers a secure and transparent environment for executing peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries. With a vast community of developers, businesses, and individuals involved, Ethereum has become a hub for innovation and collaboration in the crypto space. Companies across various industries are exploring the potential of Ethereum's smart contract capabilities to streamline operations, enhance security, and reduce costs. Moreover, Ethereum's open-source nature allows for the creation of new protocols and blockchain networks, fostering interoperability and scalability within the ecosystem. Crypto exchanges play a crucial role in facilitating the trading of Ethereum, providing a platform for individuals and institutions to buy, sell, and store their ETH securely. As the demand for Ethereum continues to grow, so does the number of exchanges offering ETH trading pairs, ensuring liquidity and accessibility for investors.

Plus, insights on the future of Ethereum and his upcoming production launch of Nightfall in partnership with Polygon.
Where Is the Ethereum Virtual Machine Headed in 2023? (Hint: Beyond Ethereum)
With apps like Uniswap exploring Layer 2s, dYdX building on Cosmos and the rise of appchains on Cosmos next year seems fit for an explosion of EVM experimentation.
Privacy-Focused Gnosis Chain Executes Proof-of-Stake ‘Merge’ of its Own
Privacy-focused Gnosis, one of the first sidechains to Ethereum, conducted its own version of the Merge to replace its proof-of-authority (PoA) chain with its Gnosis proof-of-stake (PoS) beacon chain. Gnosis co-founder Martin Köppelmann joins "First Mover" to discuss the significance of the upgrade and how it compares to the Ethereum Merge.
Ethereum Developers Target March 2023 for “Shanghai” Upgrade
Ethereum developers determined that the network’s next hard fork “Shanghai” will have a target release time frame of March 2023. This upgrade will allow Beacon Chain staked ether (stETH) withdrawals. “The Hash” panel discusses what that means for the future of Ethereum network.
Ethereum Developers Target March 2023 for Release of Staked Ether
Staked ETH withdrawals are coming in the spring, while "proto-danksharding" will follow in the subsequent hard fork in the fall.
ImmutableX NFTs Now Available on Nifty Gateway
NFTs from Web3 games powered by Ethereum scaling product ImmutableX are now available on Gemini-owned NFT marketplace Nifty Gateway. "The Hash" panel discusses what this means for the blockchain gaming industry.

This will mark the second time in blockchain history that a chain swaps out its old model for proof-of-stake.
Ethereum's Next Upgrade: What to Watch
Ethereum Foundation Protocol Support Lead Tim Beiko discusses the Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) being included in the network’s upcoming "Shanghai" hard fork. "The most important thing we wanted to do after the merge was enabling Beacon Chain withdrawals," Beiko said.
Future of Ethereum After the Merge
