#EthereumSecurityInitiative – Fortifying Web3’s Foundation
The Ethereum Foundation unveils a $50M security overhaul ahead of ETH ETF launches:
- **Critical Upgrades:**
- **Quantum-Resistant** signatures (PQCrypto integration)
- **MEV Blocker** to combat sandwich attacks
- **Smart Contract Firewalls** for enterprise DeFi
- **Ecosystem Protections:**
• $10M bug bounty program (10x previous)
• Mandatory audits for top 100 dApps
• "EthShield" insurance pool for hack victims
**Market Impact:**
✓ Institutional confidence boost pre-ETF
✓ ETH staking APR rises as validators upgrade
✓ Competing L1s rush similar initiatives
This unprecedented security push aims to make Ethereum the most attack-resistant blockchain - just as Wall Street arrives.
