PANews reported on February 23 that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently suggested on the X platform that features such as "transaction simulation" be used to improve the user experience and security of Ethereum wallets and smart contracts. He proposed that users could first specify their on-chain operation intentions, and then choose to "confirm" or "cancel" by viewing the transaction simulation results.

In addition, he suggested introducing mechanisms such as spending limits and multi-signature authorization to ensure consistency between user intent, expected results, and risk constraints, thereby reducing the likelihood of high-risk operations. However, he also pointed out that the definition of user intent is extremely complex, making "perfect security" impossible, and called for multiple methods to verify user intent to improve system security.

Vitalik proposed introducing transaction demo functionality to improve Ethereum's security.

Security is one of the "blockchain trilemma," ranking alongside decentralization and scalability as a key challenge. In recent years, the Ethereum ecosystem has focused more on decentralization and scalability, especially the latter.

Previously, Vitalik proposed using personal LLMs to improve the efficiency of decentralized governance .

3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September

3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September

The post 3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Analyses and data indicate that the crypto market is experiencing its most active altcoin season since early 2025, with many altcoins outperforming Bitcoin. However, behind this excitement lies a paradox. Most retail investors remain uneasy as their portfolios show little to no profit. This article outlines the main reasons behind this situation. Altcoin Market Cap Rises but Dominance Shrinks Sponsored TradingView data shows that the TOTAL3 market cap (excluding BTC and ETH) reached a new high of over $1.1 trillion in September. Yet the share of OTHERS (excluding the top 10) has declined since 2022, now standing at just 8%. OTHERS Dominance And TOTAL3 Capitalization. Source: TradingView. In past cycles, such as 2017 and 2021, TOTAL3 and OTHERS.D rose together. That trend reflected capital flowing not only into large-cap altcoins but also into mid-cap and low-cap ones. The current divergence shows that capital is concentrated in stablecoins and a handful of top-10 altcoins such as SOL, XRP, BNB, DOG, HYPE, and LINK. Smaller altcoins receive far less liquidity, making it hard for their prices to return to levels where investors previously bought. This creates a situation where only a few win while most face losses. Retail investors also tend to diversify across many coins instead of adding size to top altcoins. That explains why many portfolios remain stagnant despite a broader market rally. Sponsored “Position sizing is everything. Many people hold 25–30 tokens at once. A 100x on a token that makes up only 1% of your portfolio won’t meaningfully change your life. It’s better to make a few high-conviction bets than to overdiversify,” analyst The DeFi Investor said. Altcoin Index Surges but Investor Sentiment Remains Cautious The Altcoin Season Index from Blockchain Center now stands at 80 points. This indicates that over 80% of the top 50 altcoins outperformed…
