Recent Important News about ZK (ZKsync):
1️⃣ ZK-EVM achieves production-level performance, becoming a core solution for Ethereum scalability
ZK-EVM has entered the alpha stage with production-level performance, with remaining work focused on security optimization. As the core technological foundation of ZKsync, the maturity of ZK-EVM directly enhances the platform’s position within the Ethereum ecosystem. This progress validates the feasibility of zero-knowledge proofs for large-scale applications and provides solid technical support for ZKsync’s main product, ZK Stack.
2️⃣ PeerDAS mainnet launch opens space for Ethereum-ZK ecosystem collaboration
PeerDAS has officially launched on the Ethereum mainnet. Its integration with ZK-EVM will simultaneously break through the trilemma of decentralization, consensus mechanism, and high throughput. This technological combination is transforming Ethereum into a high-bandwidth peer-to-peer network, creating more favorable infrastructure conditions for ZKsync as an Ethereum layer-two solution.
3️⃣ Future Gas scalability route creates clear expectations for ZK-EVM’s large-scale application
Starting from 2026, with mechanisms like BAL and ePBS, Ethereum’s Gas limit is expected to gradually increase; between 2026-2028, Gas re-pricing and state structure adjustments will occur; from 2027-2030, ZK-EVM is expected to become the main method for network block validation. This clear technological evolution path provides long-term demand certainty for ZKsync’s zero-knowledge proof-based scalability solutions and clarifies its core role within the Ethereum ecosystem.

Miners are no longer mining Bitcoin; they are selling electricity to AI.
Written by: Cathy, Plain Language Blockchain
Mining one Bitcoin costs $87,000. When sold, the market only pays you $67,000.
For each Bitcoin mined, you net a loss of $20,000. It’s not just losing on fees or electricity fluctuations; it’s a solid loss—losing $20,000 for every Bitcoin produced. This is the reality in March 2026. Data from Glassnode and MacroMicro both point to the same conclusion: Bitcoin mining, at current prices, is a losing business.
But miners aren’t just sitting around waiting to die. They’ve made a choice that the entire market didn’t expect—they’re stopping mining and selling electricity to AI.
Specifically, it’s not “stopping mining,” but rather emptying the Bitcoin treasury and pouring all funds into AI data centers, relegating mining to a side gig.
Since Bitcoin dropped from 126,000 in October 2025

Trump says Iran war is almost over, BTC needs to hold $70,000. What do technicals say?
U.S. President Trump stated on March 10th that the Iran war is "almost over," leading to a cooling of geopolitical risk sentiment and driving cryptocurrencies like BTC to reverse and break above $70,000. Market expectations for the end date of the war have significantly increased, and risk assets are generally rising. Reflecting on the airstrike on February 28th, the market had wiped out $12.8 billion, and most indicators remain neutral with a key resistance at $74,000. Noticing that oil prices have fallen below $100, which may further support risk assets. Today's U.S. CPI data will influence market sentiment.

Bitcoin faces short-term pressure approaching $70,000 ahead of US CPI data release
On March 11, Bitcoin price dropped over 2% due to market cautiousness. Economists expect US CPI data to be slightly higher than last month, although this data does not reflect the impact of rising oil prices, and Bitcoin's short-term response may remain stable. Tensions in the Middle East could lead to increased safe-haven demand. The market should pay attention to changes in key support and resistance levels to prepare for potential volatility.
