Standard Chartered has changed its 2025 year-end price target for Ethereum from $10,000 to $4,000, citing structural challenges within the Ethereum ecosystem. The bank’s analysts attribute this adjustment to the impact of Layer 2 solutions, particularly Coinbase’s Base network, which has reduced Ethereum’s (ETH) market capitalization by an estimated $50 billion. Layer 2 networks like Base were developed to enhance Ethereum’s scalability by reducing transaction fees and congestion. However, Standard Chartered’s research indicates that these solutions may be diverting revenue away from the main Ethereum network. Base, for instance, channels its profits to Coinbase, potentially diminishing Ethereum’s overall market share.…

Bybit CEO Ben Zhou has raised concerns about decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and their risk management mechanisms following a massive Ethereum (ETH) liquidation on Hyperliquid. The event saw a whale strategically liquidate a 175,000 ETH position with 50x leverage, resulting in a $4 million loss for Hyperliquid’s liquidation engine, HLP Vault. Ultimately, the whale secured a net profit of $1.8 million.Zhou pointed out that both CEXs and DEXs face challenges in managing whale liquidations. He suggested that while lowering leverage is a short-term solution, it may hurt business by discouraging high-leverage traders. Instead, he proposed alternative risk control measures, such as…
