Nvidia's market value evaporated by $1 trillion in less than two months, with its valuation falling back to levels seen before the AI boom.
According to Mars Finance, after losing approximately $1 trillion in market capitalization in less than two months, Nvidia stock has hit its lowest level since the artificial intelligence (AI) boom fueled its surge. The chipmaker's graphics processing units (GPUs) still dominate the AI data center market. However, its share price has fallen 16% since hitting an all-time high on May 14th, prompting investors to adjust their AI trading strategies, selling Nvidia and investing in other semiconductor manufacturers, particularly those in the memory market. Data shows the sell-off has driven Nvidia's price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) to 18 based on its expected earnings over the next 12 months. The last time it reached such a low level was in early 2019. To better understand the depth of the decline, a comparison with benchmark stock indices shows that the S&P 500 has a forward P/E ratio of 20, and the Nasdaq 100 has a forward P/E ratio close to 23.

Vitalik Buterin outlines Ethereum's long-term roadmap, predicting Lean Ethereum will be the third major iteration.
According to ChainCatcher, Vitalik Buterin recently reported that Ethereum researchers met in Berlin and updated the protocol's long-term roadmap (strawmap.org). Vitalik pointed out that "Lean Ethereum" is not a single upgrade, but a series of improvements to be implemented in phases over the next three to four years. Its importance is comparable to a "merge," encompassing the restructuring of almost every core module of the protocol. Key features include: Verification Mechanism: Introducing recursive STARKs to replace the existing direct re-execution method, becoming a core component of the protocol at the primary level; Quantum Security: Significantly elevated priority, all quantum-fragile components will be replaced, and the quantum-safe Blob design is underway; Consensus Layer: Decoupling the available chain from finality, achieving one to two rounds of finality, resulting in better security and lower latency; State Layer: Existing dynamic states remain unchanged, but new, more scalable states (such as UTXO storage, circular buffers, etc.) will be added. It is projected that by 2030, Ethereum will have 2 TB of dynamic states + 100 TB of new states, and the migration of applications such as ERC20 and NFTs can achieve a gas fee reduction of over 10 times; Privacy: Upgraded from an additional feature to a primary goal, permeating the design of Mempool, state trees, etc.; VM: In addition to the EVM, leanISA or RISC-V will be introduced, with the long-term goal being direct at the protocol layer.
hinkal will fully compensate users for their funds, confirming that approximately 797,000 USDC was withdrawn by attackers and exchanged for 454 ETH.
Mars Finance reports that the decentralized privacy protocol hinkal has released a security incident update, confirming that attackers withdrew approximately 797,000 USDC from its Ethereum contracts through a series of transactions and exchanged it for approximately 454 ETH. Of this, approximately 410 ETH was subsequently transferred to Tornado Cash, and the remaining approximately 44.67 ETH was transferred to the Bitcoin network via THORChain. The company is currently working with external security teams to track the flow of funds. hinkal stated that the impact of this security incident is limited to the relevant on-chain liquidity pools; other on-chain contracts were unaffected, but all contracts have been temporarily suspended for repairs and security verification. All affected users will receive full compensation on a 1:1 basis; the specific compensation process and timeline will be announced in a subsequent update.
