March 6th, Culper Research, a U.S. activist short seller, announced that it has shorted Ethereum and related securities, including the stock of BitMine, the largest Ethereum treasury company.Culper Research believes that Ethereum's tokenomics were damaged after the Fusaka upgrade in December 2025. The upgrade raised the Gas limit, causing Gas fees to plummet by about 90%, far exceeding the 10-30% expected by Vitalik and others, and further leading to a surge in low-value activities, explaining why there has been over 95% growth in new wallets. Culper Research points out that Ethereum's top bull, Tom Lee, has emphasized true utility or institutional adoption that does not exist, as Tom Lee does not understand Ethereum at all. Ethereum's founder, Vitalik Buterin, has realized this issue and is selling off. Since January, Vitalik has sold over 19,300 ETH continuously. Culper Research predicts that the ETH price will further decline.Culper Research is a U.S. activist short-selling institution established in 2019, focusing on exposing listed companies' alleged financial fraud, misleading statements, significant risk concealment, related party transactions, etc., through the release of in-depth research reports to drive stock prices down and profit from them.

March 6th, a bill was proposed in the state of New York, USA, to ban AI from answering professional field questions in medicine, law, dentistry, nursing, psychology, engineering, and other fields.According to relevant interpretations, this action is essentially not to protect the public, but to "protect the knowledge monopoly of the industry that charges $500 per hour using politicians." Lawyers don't want users to know that AI can draft a contract in 30 seconds, doctors don't want users to know that AI can interpret blood reports better than residents, engineers don't want users to know that AI can review your design sketch overnight. New York State's proposed ban on AI answering professional questions is not to protect users, but to protect their business.

March 6th, PsiQuantum has launched the construction of a fault-tolerant quantum computer facility in Chicago aimed at 1 million quantum bits, following the photonic quantum computing route and leveraging mature semiconductor, fiber optics, and cooling technologies for scalability. The construction is progressing rapidly, with 500 tons of steel structure erected in just a few days. The first phase is expected to be partially completed around 2027, with the ultimate goal of being operational around 2028. The computing power of this facility is equivalent to hundreds of billions of traditional computers, mainly serving next-generation AI supercomputing.The crypto community is currently paying attention to its potential to break Bitcoin. Terry Rudolph, co-founder of PsiQuantum, has made it clear that they have no intention of using quantum computing to attack Bitcoin, and the company's scale is too large to do so secretly. With recent discussions on quantum threats intensifying, the Bitcoin community has been discussing hard forks to address the issue. Currently, the world's largest quantum computer has only 6100 bits, far from reaching a practical threshold, thus posing limited short-term threats to Bitcoin.

March 6th, Ethereum founder Vitalik stated, I think it is a good thing for the Ethereum community to have a more daringly open mindset, especially in terms of the application layer and how they view their position in the world. We should not compromise on core attributes: censorship resistance, openness, privacy, and security (CROPS). Especially in the application layer and Ethereum's interface with the outside world, we should be more willing to thoroughly rethink various concepts and step out of our comfort zone.Last year, we began to prioritize privacy and gave it equal weight to other types of security. This means that there will be a fundamental change in the Ethereum application stack, as so far, the entire stack has not been built around privacy. Well, let's build a completely different Ethereum application stack.This year's example is rethinking the role of L2 from scratch and which types of L2 can truly have the greatest synergy and benefit with Ethereum. This also includes cultural factors. For me and others, this is an important part of the "milady" concept. Write down your "dignified" inherent concept, crumple it up, and burn it. This psychological baptism will bring about an intellectual baptism, inspiring greater creativity and expanding horizons.For a long time, our algorithm on Ethereum has been: we have an existing ecosystem, what is the next step to make it better? Now, our algorithm should be: we have a fantastic L1 layer, and it will become even better; we have more and more tools, including tools developed inside and outside the ecosystem; based on our current knowledge, what is the most valuable? If you were to write the section on applications from the 2014 Ethereum whitepaper, starting from first principles in areas such as DeFi, decentralized social, and identity, what would you write? At the very least, please exclude all path dependency issues first, assume that the Ethereum chain is currently not in use at all, and you are the first to propose or build the initial applications, and see what you would ultimately write. Even if you are currently building existing applications, please do this. This is the secret to Ethereum's reinvigoration.
