Ethereum is a global, open-source platform for decentralized applications. In other words, it is a decentralized blockchain platform that enables developers to build and deploy smart contracts and applications without central authority control. Unlike Bitcoin, which primarily functions as digital currency, Ethereum operates as a programmable global computer where developers can create any type of decentralized service.   The platform hosts over $14 billion in DeFi applications with hundreds of thousands of active users across financial protocols, NFT marketplaces, and gaming platforms. Its transition to Proof of Stake in September 2022 reduced energy consumption by over 99%, addressing environmental concerns while strengthening network security.  The network operates through thousands of independent validator nodes that process transactions and execute smart contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. Smart contracts are self-executing programs written in Solidity that automatically carry out agreements when conditions are met, eliminating intermediaries like banks or brokers.   Validators stake ETH as collateral to propose and validate blocks, earning rewards for honest participation while facing penalties for malicious behavior. The EIP-1559 upgrade introduced a dynamic base fee mechanism that burns ETH with each transaction, creating deflationary pressure during high network activity when more ETH is burned than issued to validators.  Vitalik Buterin proposed Ethereum in 2013, but seven co-founders helped build it, including Gavin Wood who created Solidity and the EVM technical specification, and Joseph Lubin who founded ConsenSys. The project launched in July 2015 after raising over $18 million through crowdfunding, quickly becoming the largest blockchain developer community. Major milestones include the 2020 Beacon Chain launch, the 2021 London hard fork implementing fee burning, and the 2022 Merge to Proof of Stake.   Ether (ETH) serves multiple functions: paying transaction fees (gas), staking to secure the network and earn 3-5% annual yields, serving as collateral in DeFi protocols, and purchasing NFTs and digital assets. The asset is increasingly adopted by traditional institutions, with publicly traded companies adding ETH to corporate treasuries to generate staking yields while maintaining blockchain exposure, and in 2024, the SEC approved spot Ethereum ETFs, allowing traditional investors to gain exposure through conventional brokerage accounts.  Ethereum's roadmap focuses on dramatically increasing transaction capacity to over 100,000 per second, reducing confirmation times, and enhancing decentralization while maintaining security against future threats like quantum computing.

Ethereum

Ethereum is trending as the Fusaka upgrade goes live, promising improved scalability and reduced Layer 2 transaction fees, sparking excitement among bulls. Community members are closely watching for a potential "sell the news" event, while others anticipate a significant price surge. Broader discussions include institutional adoption and the potential for ETH to outperform BTC in the coming cycle.

Legendary investor Warren Buffett-owned Berkshire Hathaway has trimmed its stake in Bank of America for the first time since 2019 over six trading sessions. Despite the stake reduction, retail investors have refrained from turning bearish on the stock with the sentiment meter trending in the neutral zone (53/100) supported by high message volume.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1586/460;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2024_07_25_at_11_14_56_AM_17542e5de1.png" alt="Retail sentiment trends in the neutral territory for Bank of America" width="1586" height="460"><figcaption>Retail sentiment trends in the neutral territory for Bank of America</figcaption></figure>The sale of shares took place from Wednesday July 17 through July 24, according to filings on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website. Last week, Berkshire sold roughly 33.89 million shares of the lender at prices ranging from $43.13 to $44.07. This week, the firm sold another 18.89 million shares at prices ranging from $42.39 to $42.56.In total, Berkshire sold 52.89 million shares of the lender in six sessions that amounts to approximately $2.30 billion worth of stock. However, Berkshire still holds over 980 million shares of the bank, worth $41 billion at current prices. That’s second only to its stake in Apple which is worth a whopping $172 billion.Notably, the share sale comes in the wake of a decent rally registered by Bank of America stock this year, having gained over 23% on a year-to-date (YTD) basis. The lender, too, has been doing well on its operational metrics. Last week, it announced an upbeat set of earnings that topped analyst estimates on multiple counts. The bank reported a revenue of $25.40 billion during the quarter which came in higher than a Street estimate of $25.22 billion. Earnings per share came in at 83 cents as compared to an estimate of 80 cents.But that’s not all. The bank has been in the news lately after it increased its common stock dividend by 8% to $0.26 per share. The Board also authorized a new $25 billion common stock repurchase program, effective August 1, 2024, to replace the company’s current program, which will expire on that date.Stocktwits users are chatting about the buyback and the dividend hike, but some aren’t optimistic about the stock post Berkshire’s selling. A user named ‘FOTIKRR’ believes the stock could fall below the $30 mark and Buffett’s stake reduction in the lender is a precursor for a downward move in the stock and the broader financial sector.<figure class="image"><a href="https://stocktwits.com/FOTIKRR/message/580483338"><img style="aspect-ratio:1572/648;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2024_07_25_at_11_16_53_AM_a736322b3a.png" alt="Stocktwits user FOTIKRR's post on Bank of America" width="1572" height="648"></a><figcaption>Stocktwits user FOTIKRR's post on Bank of America</figcaption></figure>Photo Courtesy: Bank of America website
