Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said low-risk DeFi could become Ethereum’s main revenue engine, replacing its reliance on ”embarrassing” meme coins, and NFTs.

Bitwise has filed for a stablecoin and tokenization ETF after predicting that new Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) listing rules could unleash a “flood’’ of crypto funds. The proposed ETF (exchange-traded fund), called Bitwise Stablecoin & Tokenization ETF, will track an index of stablecoin issuers, infrastructure firms, exchanges, payment processors, and regulated crypto ETPs (exchange-traded products with Bitcoin and Ethereum exposure), a ccording to a filing .

Messari analyst AJC highlighted on X that Ethereum generated $39.2 million in revenue in August, down 75% from $157.4 million in the same month in 2023 and 40% lower than last year’s $64.8 million. This marked the network’s fourth-lowest monthly revenue since January 2021. “Ethereum is dying,” he said . “Ethereum’s fundamentals are collapsing, but the .eths don’t care so long as the price goes up.” The analyst added that the decline in network fundamentals is “alarming,” despite ETH hitting a new all-time high of $4,953.73 on Aug. 24.
