According to reports, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin published a blog post discussing Ethereum's Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2) scaling strategies for 2025 and beyond. Vitalik pointed out that L2 protocols are the core pathway for Ethereum's expansion, with their technology and social collaboration pushing Ethereum closer to "escape velocity"—the point at which sufficient network effects and value accumulation drive its continuous growth. At the same time, Vitalik highlighted two major challenges currently faced: the scale of scaling and the issue of heterogeneity (including standards, interoperability, proof system security, user experience, and economic models). He proposed targeted solutions, including increasing data block capacity, optimizing L2 proof system security, accelerating the advancement of interoperability standards, and reinforcing $ETH's core position in the Ethereum economy.

According to multiple blockchain security experts, North Korean hackers may be behind the Phemex exchange theft incident. Phemex was attacked on January 23, resulting in losses exceeding 70 million USD in cryptocurrency. This attack appears to follow a similar pattern to vulnerabilities exploited in other well-known crypto exchanges. Taylor Monahan, Chief Security Researcher at MetaMask, stated that the attackers extracted large amounts of assets simultaneously from multiple chains, prioritizing the exchange of freezeable stablecoins (such as USDC and USDT), and then liquidated other tokens in order of their value. These operations were not scripted but performed manually, with assets being sent to new addresses for exchange manually, and once completed, they would be transferred to another new address. These assets would then remain stored until a real money laundering team retrieves them next week or next month. Currently, Phemex holds approximately 1.80 billion USD in crypto assets, most of which are its exchange token PT, totaling 1.10 billion USD. (The Block)
