Ethereum validation fell 25% after the Fusaka upgrade as a Prysm client bug edges toward finality loss, prompting urgent patches and warnings to node operators to avert wider chain instability.
Blockzeit Explained: How Bitcoin Keeps Time – Learn how Bitcoin’s block time governs transaction cadence, adjusts mining difficulty, and preserves network security, enabling predictable coin issuance and synchronized consensus.
Understanding Bitcoin Core: the reference implementation powering Bitcoin – a concise look at how it validates blocks, enforces consensus, manages peers and updates, and why its development shapes network security.
VanEck says Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrade-focused on consensus refinements, client readiness and rigorous testing-could be a game‑changer, positioning the network to capitalize on upcoming blob capacity boosts.
Forks split blockchains when protocol rules change: soft forks are backward-compatible tweaks; hard forks create new chains and communities. Understanding motives, risks and governance clarifies their impact.
Blockchain is a distributed, tamper-resistant ledger that records transactions in cryptographic blocks. This primer explains how consensus replaces intermediaries and why the technology matters for trust, finance and data.
Inside the Block Header, Bitcoin records key data – timestamps, previous-hash links and the Merkle root – that let nodes verify transactions and secure an immutable, verifiable chain.
A Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) is a formal document that outlines technical or policy changes to Bitcoin. BIPs guide community debate, standardize upgrades, and shape the network’s future evolution.
Nonce: a unique, one-time number used in blockchain to secure transactions and prevent double-spending. This brief explainer uncovers how nonces underpin consensus and integrity.
A hard fork is a protocol change that creates an incompatible blockchain split. This journalistic guide explains why forks happen, the technical and social risks, and how users are affected.
