Odaily Planet Daily reported that on-chain analyst Yu Yan monitored that a certain ETH lending whale position is approaching liquidation. He collateralized 23,800 ETH ($48.56 million) on Spark (@sparkdotfi), borrowing 35.27 million DAI. The liquidation price for the position is $1,800. As ETH dropped to the $2,000 mark, only $250 away from his liquidation price, he was forced to start cutting losses and reducing his position: he just sold 238 ETH in exchange for 488,000 DAI to repay the loan. If the price continues to fall, he can only keep selling ETH to lower the liquidation price.

Ethereum L1-zkEVM debut imminent, EIP-8025 may reshape block validation efficiency and costs
Ethereum will undergo its most groundbreaking architectural upgrade since the "Merge." Today marks the official launch of the first L1-zkEVM Workshop, where a brand-new block verification system based on zero-knowledge proofs is being showcased for the first time. This solution is expected to enable faster block confirmation, reduce resource consumption, and significantly lower operational barriers.
Ladislaus.eth, a researcher at the Ethereum Foundation, stated that this could be one of the most impactful upgrades in network history. The core of this roadmap is EIP-8025 "Optional Execution Proof," which allows some validators (zkAttesters) to confirm blocks through cryptographic proofs without re-executing each transaction. For existing nodes, this is an optional upgrade and will not be mandatory, but adopters will gain clear efficiency advantages.

Visa enables on-chain settlement of Ethereum stablecoins, with USDC annual trading volume exceeding $3.5 billion
February 10 News, global payments giant Visa has officially launched an on-chain settlement system based on the Ethereum network, using USDC as the settlement medium. The service was quietly launched in December 2025, but its on-chain annualized transaction volume has already exceeded $3.5 billion, marking an acceleration of the traditional financial system's migration to blockchain infrastructure.
By transferring some cross-border and institutional payments on-chain, Visa provides corporate clients with 24/7 fund settlement capabilities, eliminating delays caused by banking hours and multiple intermediaries. The settlement cycle has been compressed from several days to just a few minutes, while also enhancing the traceability and transparency of fund flows. This change demonstrates that Ethereum is no longer just a smart contract platform but is evolving into a global settlement network.
