Ethereum Foundation has released its latest development update, indicating steady progress in the upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade. According to Foresight News, while the implementation of ePBS (protocol-level PBS) is complex, the related development network is stabilizing, and the block-level access lists (BALs) development network is advancing smoothly. The current goal is to launch the first generalized Glamsterdam development network next week if the ePBS development network remains stable, followed by client releases, security audits, and test network testing. Additionally, EIP-7954, aimed at increasing the maximum contract size, is likely to be prioritized. The subsequent Hegotá upgrade has selected FOCIL (EIP-7805) as the core feature for the consensus layer, while the proposal for account abstraction (AA), EIP-8141, remains in a pending introduction (CFI) status due to lack of consensus. Non-core feature proposals for Hegotá were initiated on April 9. Regarding the network gas limit, the current benchmark target is set at 60 million, with higher limit testing ongoing. As for the upgrade timeline, Glamsterdam is unlikely to go live in the second quarter, and the progress of Hegotá will largely depend on the completion of the former.

The application focuses on end-to-end encryption, no ads, and no tracking.

Macro investor Jordi Visser says Bitcoin and Ethereum are not far from key price levels that could signal a trend reversal this year, despite a growing consensus in the industry that the market has entered a bear market cycle. He stated, "If Bitcoin breaks $76,000 and Ethereum breaks $2,400, I think that would be the start of a sustainable uptrend this year, because I don't think there will be a recession." Visser also said, "I think inflation will remain high, and people will need to look for profitable assets in a world where the S&P 500 isn't rising." The prediction market Kalshi currently prices a 24% probability of a recession in 2026, a 10 percentage point decrease from the past 30 days. Visser's view contrasts with the growing pessimism in the crypto industry—some even predicting Bitcoin will fall below its year-to-date low of $60,000 on February 6th. Veteran trader Peter Brandt stated on March 31 that Bitcoin may retest or even "slightly below" that price level in September or October this year, which would mark the low point of this bear market.
