Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has put forward a new design proposal that could significantly reduce the technical and hardware barriers to running an Ethereum node. The concept, called “partially stateless nodes,” aims to decentralize the network further by enabling everyday users to run nodes on personal devices—without needing to store the entire blockchain history.
Published in a detailed blog post on Sunday, Buterin’s proposal outlines a model that would allow node operators to store only the subset of Ethereum data most relevant to them, rather than the full 1.3 terabytes (TB) of data required for operating a full node today.
Currently, running an Ethereum node requires substantial disk space and technical expertise, making it feasible primarily for institutions or developers with access to high-performance hardware. Many users instead rely on third-party services for blockchain access, which often involves trade-offs in privacy, censorship resistance, and decentralization.
Buterin’s vision is a “local-first” approach that mirrors a library system—users store the “books” they frequently access while retrieving the rest from the network as needed.
"This type of node would give the benefits of direct local access to the state that a user needs to care about, as well as maximal full privacy of access to that state," he wrote.
How It Works
The model allows node operators to customize the data their node stores, such as frequently used smart contracts, tokens, or specific decentralized applications (dApps). This configuration would be determined via a simple on-chain setting. Instead of storing complex cryptographic structures like Merkle proofs, users would only need the raw data, making the setup less resource-intensive.
On-demand verification of other blockchain segments would be done using cryptographic proofs, ensuring that trust and validation mechanisms remain intact even without full local data storage.
Building on EIP-4444
The concept of partially stateless nodes builds on the ongoing Ethereum Improvement Proposal EIP-4444, which aims to reduce node data requirements by limiting historical block data storage to just 36 days. Older historical data would be made accessible through distributed storage using erasure coding, ensuring permanence without burdening individual nodes.
While the stateless node proposal remains in its early stages, it aligns with Ethereum’s broader decentralization roadmap. The ultimate goal is to make node participation as lightweight and private as possible, thereby boosting the number of independently run nodes and reducing reliance on centralized infrastructure providers like Infura or Alchemy.
What’s Next?
The Ethereum community is expected to discuss and refine the idea over the coming months, with any formal adoption likely requiring testnet trials and further EIP developments. However, the direction signals a renewed push toward true decentralization, making Ethereum more resilient and user-friendly.
If successfully implemented, partially stateless nodes could mark a turning point for the network, opening up node operation to a broader audience and reinforcing the decentralized ethos at Ethereum’s core.

Pi Network’s token has experienced an unexpected price surge in recent days, with its value climbing more than 72% in less than 48 hours. This price rally has pushed the token briefly into the top 20 digital assets by market capitalization, a significant achievement for the social cryptocurrency and developer platform.
As of May 12, Pi’s market cap sits at just over $9 billion, with a price hovering around $1.39 (however, at press time, the price is $1.07), showing robust gains and positioning the token for further growth. And this surge is largely attributed to anticipation surrounding a major ecosystem announcement set for May 14, which is expected to provide clarity on Pi Network’s next phase of development.
Speculation about the nature of the announcement is rife, with many hoping it will include the launch of decentralized applications (dApps), new GameFi projects, and improvements to Pi’s native wallet.
Pi’s founder, Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis, is also scheduled to speak at the Consensus 2025 in Toronto, adding to the excitement surrounding the upcoming news. And the timing of the announcement couldn’t have been more fortuitous. The token’s price had largely been stagnant during April, with no significant price swings.
However, just days after the official Pi Team teased the May 14 update on social media, Pi’s price began to rise steadily. On May 11, the token surpassed $1 for the first time since March 2025, marking a key resistance level that has now turned into support. From there, the price surged past $1.2 and continued its upward trajectory, fueled by a combination of investor optimism and speculative trading.
Adding fuel to the fire, rumors are circulating that Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, may soon list Pi, which could further boost its liquidity and visibility. Despite the growing interest, Pi is still not listed on Binance due to concerns over the distribution and liquidity of its tokens. However, if the upcoming announcement addresses these concerns, it could open the door for broader exchange listings and drive the price even higher.
This surge in Pi’s price has come at a time when the broader crypto market is also experiencing positive momentum, with Bitcoin nearing new highs. Additionally, investors are hopeful that Pi’s upcoming news could provide a catalyst for further upward movement. In the past 24 hours alone, Pi’s trading volume surpassed $1.5 billion, a clear indication of the market’s enthusiasm.
In addition to the May 14 announcement, Pi’s ecosystem has been evolving with new features aimed at increasing inclusivity. One of the significant updates was the decoupling of wallet activation from migration, making it easier for millions of users to engage with the Pi Mainnet. These moves align with Pi’s broader strategy of building a more inclusive and user-friendly blockchain ecosystem. If these developments prove successful, Pi could see even greater adoption among developers and users alike.
Moreover, Pi’s price rally is not without its share of risks. The token’s surge has reignited discussions about its long-term viability and the regulatory challenges that it could face as it moves forward. Despite these challenges, the momentum is undeniable, and the potential for future growth seems substantial, especially if the May 14 announcement lives up to expectations.

MultiBank Group has entered a major strategic partnership to lead what it calls the largest real-world asset (RWA) tokenization initiative to date, worth $3 billion. In collaboration with UAE-based real estate developer MAG Lifestyle Development and blockchain firm Mavryk, the deal aims to bring high-end property onto the blockchain, accessible via MultiBank.io’s regulated marketplace.
At the center of this initiative is the upcoming launch of the $MBG token, a utility asset that will serve as the operational backbone of MultiBank’s digital finance platform. The token is designed to support a wide range of functionalities, enabling access, staking, fee payments, and governance, effectively embedding itself into the marketplace's core infrastructure.
According to the agreement, MAG will provide real estate developments such as The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Dubai, Creekside (part of the Keturah Resort), and Keturah Reserve for tokenization. Mavryk will handle the underlying blockchain infrastructure, while MultiBank Group will oversee the regulatory and market compliance.
For MultiBank.io users, the partnership means the opportunity to invest in premium, yield-generating real estate assets via a platform designed to be fully compliant and globally accessible. Yield distribution will occur daily, and investors will be able to engage with institutional-grade assets using blockchain-native tools.
“This isn’t just a real estate deal — it is a flagship use case for the $MBG token,” said Zak Taher, Founder and CEO of MultiBank.io. “By enabling seamless access to $3B in tokenized property, MultiBank becomes the bridge between regulated finance and next-generation investment infrastructure. This is how we make Web3 real.”
The sentiment was echoed by MAG’s leadership, who see the initiative as a means of expanding real estate access without compromising transparency or security.
“Partnering with MultiBank Group marks a milestone in broadening access to high-value developments and unlocking liquidity via blockchain,” said Talal Al Gaddah, Senior Executive Vice Chairman of MAG.

From Mavryk’s perspective, the collaboration reinforces the viability of tokenization in transforming global capital markets.
“By leveraging our advanced tokenization and DeFi infrastructure, we are transforming landmark developments into borderless, liquid investment opportunities,” said Alex Davis, Founder and CEO of Mavryk.
MultiBank’s approach is further backed by a buyback-and-burn mechanism tied to platform revenues, aimed at ensuring long-term token value. The $MBG ecosystem will also include staking rewards, tiered user benefits, and exclusive launchpad opportunities, all meant to incentivize participation and promote retention among users.

While the initial tokenization volume stands at $3 billion, the platform’s infrastructure is reportedly built to scale up to $10 billion in assets. If successful, the collaboration could serve as a model for merging traditional real estate and blockchain infrastructure at scale, potentially ushering in a new era of programmable ownership and transparent, compliant investing.

Uniswap (UNI), the governance token of the pioneering decentralized exchange, continues to command attention in the volatile world of cryptocurrency. Since its inception in 2018 by Hayden Adams, Uniswap has revolutionized decentralized finance (DeFi) with its automated market maker (AMM) protocol on Ethereum, allowing users to trade ERC-20 tokens without intermediaries.
As of early May 2025, UNI trades around $5.19, with a market cap of $3.24 billion and a daily trading volume nearing $100 million.
But with the broader crypto market experiencing turbulence, what does the future hold for UNI’s price?
Technical Analysis and Short-Term Outlook
Recent technical analysis paints a cautious picture for UNI. The token has lost 1.58% of its value in the past 24 hours, and red candlesticks on daily charts confirm persistent selling pressure. The current price sits below both the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages ($6.00 and $9.17, respectively), indicating a bearish sentiment.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers near 40, suggesting UNI is neither oversold nor ready for a strong rebound. Volatility is on the rise, as evidenced by widening Bollinger Bands, meaning price swings could become more pronounced in the near term.
Despite the prevailing bearish mood, the four-hour chart hints at short bursts of bullish activity. The RSI has ticked upwards to 41.69, and recent price action shows sporadic attempts by buyers to regain control. Resistance is currently found at $5.964, while support sits at $4.878.
If UNI can break above these resistance levels-first at $6.2, then $8.3, a push towards $11 is possible. However, continued market weakness could see UNI test lower supports.
Long-Term Forecast: 2025 and Beyond
Looking ahead, analysts remain cautiously optimistic about UNI’s long-term prospects. For the remainder of 2025, forecasts suggest UNI could reach a maximum of $9.72, with the average price hovering around $8.10.
The minimum price is expected to be $3.24, reflecting ongoing market uncertainty. By 2026, projections place UNI between $11.88 and $15.12, with further gains anticipated in subsequent years.
The outlook becomes increasingly bullish as the timeline extends. By 2028, UNI’s average price is expected to range from $22.68 to $25.92. In 2031, analysts predict an average price of $40.49, with a potential high of $42.11-nearly matching its all-time high from May 2021. While some investors speculate about UNI reaching $100, most forecasts suggest this milestone is unlikely before 2031, barring a dramatic shift in market dynamics.
Uniswap’s enduring appeal lies in its robust DeFi infrastructure, wide user base, and ongoing protocol upgrades. Recent developments, such as real-time liquidity tracking in Uniswap V4, continue to enhance its utility. However, as with all cryptocurrencies, UNI’s trajectory will be shaped by broader market trends, regulatory developments, and technological innovation.
The Outlook
Uniswap’s UNI token remains a cornerstone of the DeFi ecosystem, with strong long-term growth potential despite short-term headwinds. Investors should monitor resistance and support levels closely and consider the inherent volatility of the crypto market when making decisions.
While UNI may not reach $100 shortly, its projected growth over the next five to seven years suggests it remains a compelling asset for those with a long-term outlook.

The dYdX token, a prominent player in the decentralized exchange (DEX) sector, has experienced a turbulent journey since its launch. As of early May 2025, dYdX is trading around $0.63, facing persistent bearish pressure and hovering just above its support level at $0.6167. Despite the current market sentiment being largely negative, reflected by a Fear & Greed Index score of 26 (Fear), many investors and analysts remain optimistic about dYdX’s long-term potential.
The past year has been eventful for dYdX, marked by the platform’s migration of its token from Ethereum to its own mainnet and a significant 35% workforce reduction in late 2024. These developments, coupled with broader market volatility fueled by global economic tensions such as the US-China trade wars, have contributed to substantial price swings. In April 2025, dYdX’s price fluctuated considerably, with attempts to break above $0.9 but also facing the risk of consolidation around $0.5 if bearish momentum persists.
Technical analysis paints a mixed picture. The daily and weekly simple and exponential moving averages (SMAs and EMAs) predominantly signal a sell, and the 14-day RSI hovers near the neutral 50 mark, suggesting indecision among traders. Short-term indicators, such as the bullish Balance of Power (BoP) and attempts by bulls to reclaim higher ground on the 4-hour chart, hint at potential recovery rallies. However, the MACD remains negative, indicating that sellers still have the upper hand. Should dYdX manage to sustain momentum above $0.648, a bullish rally toward $0.677 could materialize. Conversely, failure to hold support may drag the price down toward $0.5758.
Looking ahead, the price outlook for dYdX is cautiously optimistic. For May 2025, predictions suggest a range between $0.5 and $1.2, with the possibility of a push toward $1.2 if downward pressure eases. For the full year 2025, analysts forecast a minimum price of $0.4 and a maximum of $3.55, with an average price near $1.96. Some more bullish projections even see dYdX reaching up to $4.55 by year’s end, contingent on renewed buying interest and favorable market conditions.
Long-term forecasts are even more promising. By 2030, dYdX could potentially reach a maximum of $29.58, with average yearly prices steadily increasing as institutional interest and adoption grow. However, reaching milestones like $10 or even $100 will depend heavily on sustained demand, regulatory clarity, and the platform’s ability to innovate and attract users.
In summary, while dYdX currently faces significant bearish pressure and short-term volatility, its long-term prospects remain strong, especially if the broader crypto market recovers and decentralized finance continues to expand. As always, prospective investors should consider their risk tolerance and consult financial experts before making any investment decisions in such a volatile space.

Strategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, has added another 15,355 BTC to its growing reserves, according to a filing made on Monday. The purchase, executed between April 21 and April 27, cost the company approximately $1.4 billion at an average price of $92,737 per Bitcoin.
The acquisition was funded through proceeds from the company’s recent stock offerings. As detailed in the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Strategy raised roughly $1.4 billion by selling around 4.02 million shares of its Class A common stock (MSTR) and an additional 435,069 shares of its 8.00% Series A preferred stock (STRK) during the same period.
With this latest move, Strategy now holds a total of 553,555 BTC, a stash valued at about $52.7 billion at current market prices. Bitcoin is currently trading at nearly $95,300, according to TradingView data, giving the company a significant boost in unrealized gains. The firm’s total Bitcoin investment, which was made at an average price of $68,459 per coin, has appreciated substantially, turning an initial $37.9 billion outlay into approximately $15 billion in paper profits.

This marks the third consecutive week that Strategy has expanded its Bitcoin holdings. Just a week earlier, the company disclosed the purchase of 6,556 BTC, reinforcing its aggressive accumulation strategy amid a rising market. The latest acquisition also followed a weekend post from Michael Saylor, who highlighted the company’s Bitcoin portfolio tracker, often viewed by the market as a hint that major buying activity was underway.

Shares of Strategy (MSTR) reflected the momentum, rising 1.6% in pre-market trading on Monday after a 5% gain last Friday, according to Yahoo Finance. The company’s deepening commitment to Bitcoin comes at a time when market sentiment around digital assets appears to be strengthening.
