MARA Reports $1.3 Billion Quarterly Loss
The mining company MARA released its report for the first quarter. As of January-March, the company's net loss increased to $1.3 billion (compared to $533 million a year earlier). Source: MARA. The firm's revenue decreased by 18% compared to the same period last year — to $174.6 million, falling short of Wall Street's expectations of $192.7 million. MARA's total hash rate increased by 33% — from 53.3 EH/s to 72.2 EH/s. During the past quarter, the miner produced 2247 BTC without purchasing any coins. However, the company's total reserves of digital gold decreased by 26% — to 35,303 BTC. Reasons for Weak Performance According to the report, the negative financial results were mainly due to losses in treasury reserves, as Bitcoin fell by more than 20% over three months. Representatives of MARA stated that mining digital gold remains the "core activity" of the company, despite expansion into artificial intelligence and high-performance computing to seek additional revenue sources. “Our strategy is based on placing new infrastructure next to existing mining facilities. This approach provides flexibility: we can generate revenue today through Bitcoin mining while maintaining the ability to redirect resources to AI and critical IT tasks as these areas develop at the same sites,” MARA noted. However, the company emphasized that it does not plan to purchase new mining equipment in the near future. The publication of the quarterly results put pressure on the company's shares. Since the report was released after the market closed, MARA's stock fell by 4% in pre-market trading. Source: Yahoo Finance. In April, miner Bitdeer surpassed MARA in terms of Bitcoin mining capacity.

Ethereum Foundation hits ‘Glamsterdam’ milestones, names new protocol leads
The Ethereum Foundation has finalized a new gas limit floor and improvement proposal for its “Glamsterdam” upgrade, which is likely to go live sometime in the third quarter of 2026.
Leadership Change at Ethereum Foundation’s Technical Division
The Protocol team at the Ethereum Foundation (EF) has undergone a leadership change. Leading developers Barnabé Monnot and Tim Beiko are leaving the organization, while Alex Stokes is taking a sabbatical. The new co-leaders of the division are: Will Corcoran — research coordinator (zkVM, post-quantum consensus); Kev Wedderburn — head of the zkEVM team; Fredrik — head of protocol security. According to Corcoran, the team will focus on preparing the Glamsterdam and Hegota updates. Developers plan to increase the gas limit to 200 million and implement a proposer-builder separation mechanism. In later upgrades, the priority will be network resilience against censorship. The reorganization occurs amid a series of departures from EF. Last month, Josh Stark left the foundation, and in February, co-executive director Tomasz Stanczak departed. Some specialists have moved to external projects, including the Tempo network. Monnot, who worked at EF for over six years, explained his departure as a desire to focus on the product side of Ethereum and improve user experience. The Protocol division is responsible for the design, security, and scaling of the network's base layer. The team also coordinates AllCoreDevs developer meetings and cryptography research. Back in March, Gnosis and Zisk, with EF's support, created a framework to unify the fragmented ecosystem of second-layer networks. In April, Gnosis co-founder Friederike Ernst announced that not only L2 solutions might join the project.
