StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson said corporate blockchains will help with mainstream adoption, but long term, they will be abandoned if they try to retain control. Blockchains created and controlled by corporations will eventually die as users won’t want a chain controlled by a central entity, according to Eli Ben-Sasson, co-founder and CEO of blockchain company StarkWare.Ben-Sasson said in a Monday post to X that he was doubling down on his opinion that “corpo” chains won't last because they are not aligned with a fundamental concept of blockchain, which requires them to get “rid of their position as a central entity.”“The important element of blockchain is a system that gets rid of a central entity. It comes at a cost: A very complex technology that's hard to build and hard to use. Even if we apply AA to create simplified UX, the tech under the hood is still very complex,” he said.

ETH Whales Rebuild as Outflows Trim Supply, Price Retests $4K
The post ETH Whales Rebuild as Outflows Trim Supply, Price Retests $4K appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum whales add 218K ETH, reversing mid-October sell-offs and signaling renewed confidence. Exchange outflows rise as investors move ETH to private wallets, hinting at long-term holding. ETH holds near $3,900 amid lower trading volumes, reflecting consolidation after strong October gains. Santiment shows wallets holding 100 to 10,000 ETH re-accumulated roughly 218,470 ETH over the past week. That buying offsets a slice of the ~1.36 million ETH these cohorts sold between October 5 and 16. Whales Reverse Course and Add 218K ETH After Mid-October Selling The flip from distribution to accumulation restores part of the liquidity removed earlier in the month and sets a more constructive backdrop if demand persists. 🐳🦈 Ethereum whales and sharks holding between 100 to 10,000 $ETH are finally showing some signs of confidence. After -1.36M was dumped by this group between October 5th and 16th, they have added back close to 1/6th of it since.

The shift lines up with steady staking participation and consistent dApp activity, factors that help anchor ETH fundamentals while price compresses.

The ETH Spot Inflow/Outflow chart recorded heightened movement throughout mid-October, with alternating waves of deposits and withdrawals reflecting a tug-of-war between short-term traders and accumulating investors. Notably, outflow spikes, indicating transfers from exchanges to private wallets, have increased in recent weeks, aligning with Santiment’s findings on accumulation. Ethereum’s price trend has remained resilient through these shifts. The asset’s value climbed from under $2,000 in early 2025…
