DeFi researcher Ignas responded to Vitalik’s proposal to prioritize Ethereum’s store-of-value (SoV) role, saying the shift should not come at the expense of Layer 1 fee revenue. According to Odaily, Ignas said ETH may be better suited as a store-of-value asset than BTC or ZEC, citing native staking yields, planned privacy features and the potential for transaction-fee burns to make ETH deflationary. He said using BTC or ZEC as collateral for loans typically requires wrapped assets or trust in banks and centralized exchanges, while ETH can be used for native collateralization and asset swaps on the same chain. Ignas said his support for emphasizing ETH’s SoV role does not stem from a belief that Ethereum’s L1 can never generate enough fee revenue to make ETH deflationary. Scaling can also lower transaction costs, he said, but demand must grow alongside it, and the Ethereum community must work to increase demand.

Nvidia's board is investigating whether Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang was targeted by a foreign espionage plot after he told employees he had been unfaithful to his wife, Bloomberg reported. The board will assemble a committee of independent directors, working with outside counsel, to oversee the inquiry, according to a statement on Sunday.The investigation will address reports that Huang "has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort" and examine all available information. The board said it has no reason to believe that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised. Huang, 63, will remain CEO pending the results and is fully cooperating."I was unfaithful to my wife," Huang said in a memo to staff. "My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did." He said he was deeply sorry for the affair and that he was committed to protecting Nvidia and supporting US national security.The admission follows reports that Huang was targeted by Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed International executive whom the US government suspects was recruited by a Chinese spy agency. The CEO had previously denied having anything beyond a "normal" relationship with the woman.Singapore-based Megaspeed has been accused of breaking US export restrictions and smuggling Nvidia chips to China. Nvidia may ship a limited range of products to China under a licensing programme granted by the current administration, while Beijing has restricted imports of the chips, an impasse that continues to curb sales in the world's second-largest economy.The episode casts doubt over the future of a leader central to the AI boom. Nvidia has no public succession plan and no obvious heir apparent, and Huang has built an informal structure around himself in which direct reports implement his decisions. The company reached a record market value of nearly $5.8 trillion in October and has since slipped below $5 trillion. It reports earnings later this month.

According to CNBC, China’s producer price index rose 5.7% in October, its fastest increase since June 2022 and the third consecutive month of acceleration, exceeding economists’ 5.3% forecast. Consumer inflation slowed to 0.7%, its first deceleration after two months of increases, below economists’ 0.8% estimate and September’s 0.9%.

Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin published a lengthy article re-examining the source of ETH's value. He argues that rather than viewing ETH as a token whose valuation is supported by transaction fee burning, it should be more valued as a store of value.

Vitalik wrote that ETH should be positioned more around its function as a store of value. He stated that the narrative of fee burning is not as powerful as it seems, and optimizing around this goal may make it difficult to balance decentralization and anti-capture capabilities.
