BlockBeats News, July 30th. Today, Ethereum celebrates its 10th anniversary. Over the past decade, ETH has risen from $0.3 to over $4000, ranking as the 28th largest asset in the world. It has grown to become the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap, second only to Bitcoin. Ethereum is widely used in DeFi, NFTs, and other areas, earning the title of the "world's computer" and subtly reshaping our world.

In 2014, Ethereum raised about 31,000 Bitcoins, worth around $18 million at the time, through an ICO (Initial Coin Offering). At the time of the ICO, the price of Bitcoin was around $600. By 2025, the price of Bitcoin had surpassed $120,000, a 200x increase. Ethereum is currently priced at $3774, representing an increase of approximately 12,580 times over the same period.

Japan to Assess a Framework for Yen Stablecoins and Crypto ETFs as Asia’s Compliant Payments Narrative Heats Up

Recently, according to the original report, Japan is considering the launch of yen stablecoins and cryptocurrency ETFs. Public information remains limited at this stage, and there is still no complete policy text, regulatory draft, or clear implementation timeline, so this is better characterized as a “policy discussion” rather than formal implementation. The original wording also noted that advancing stablecoin regulation in Asia is driving XRP usage and supporting growth in the XRPL ecosystem. However, based on currently available public information, there is not enough evidence to directly establish a clear causal relationship between this round of discussion in Japan and XRP or XRPL.

ZachXBT: Humanity private key leak and abnormal surge in H token should be viewed separately

On June 9, according to related disclosures, on-chain investigator ZachXBT posted an update on Humanity’s roughly $31 million security incident, saying that after further analyzing fund flows, he currently tends to believe the project team was not involved in an “inside job” or a self-staged attack. According to him, the official explanation about the private key leak was broadly accurate, but before the token unlock, the price of H had been artificially pushed higher, and the hacker later took advantage of that market environment; therefore, the private key leak and the earlier abnormal price pumping should be regarded as two separate and independent events. This reframing has shifted the market’s understanding of the nature of the incident. Earlier discussion around Humanity had focused on whether the team directly participated in the attack or used the security incident to cover up internal operations. ZachXBT’s latest remarks shift the focus from “whether it was self-theft” to “whether there were pre-unlock market structure issues.” He also questioned whether the team may have.
