Artificial intelligence has proven its worth on the Ethereum network by successfully identifying a critical bug, marking a major step forward for automated blockchain security. Meanwhile, the ecosystem expands as Robinhood builds a native Layer-2 network using Arbitrum technology. Despite strong institutional ETF inflows and bullish on-chain bottom signals, persistent retail selling pressure continues to combat upward momentum.
