Buterin a susținut din ce în ce mai mult actualizări pentru a face Ethereum „mai greu” și „mai subțire”, inclusiv propuneri controversate precum FOCIL pentru a asigura rezistența la cenzură la nivel de protocol.
FOCIL a fost oficial „programat pentru includere” ca vedetă a stratului de consens (CL) pentru viitoarea actualizare Hegota, vizată pentru sfârșitul anului 2026.
Vitalik Buterin construiește un "ethereum cypherpunk principial non-urât" ca parte a viziunii sale viitoare pentru cel mai mare ecosistem onchain.
Ca răspuns la o postare pe X care susținea că Buterin "ar trebui să lase ethereum original să moară încet și dureros prin fragmentare (tempo, reth, l2s, lanțuri de aplicații, instituții etc.) și să-l reconstruiască ca un lanț cypherpunk de la primele principii pe risc v doar pentru a arăta cine era șeful," Buterin a răspuns:

Fartcoin is a meme coin launched on 18 October 2024 through Pump.fun, a meme coin launchpad on the Solana network. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies that focus on finance, governance, or DeFi applications, Fartcoin draws its appeal from internet culture. The coin’s simple and relatable concept, “everyone farts,” helped it connect with a broad online audience. 
The project initially invited users to submit fart jokes or memes to earn tokens, using humor as a creative way to distribute its supply and engage the community during its launch phase. With the tagline “the token that breaks wind, not banks,” Fartcoin highlights the lighter side of crypto through humor and community-driven cultural expression.
Origins 
Fartcoin began as a concept generated by artificial intelligence (AI) rather than a traditional cryptocurrency project. The concept was created by an AI agent called Truth Terminal, developed by Andy Ayrey in collaboration with another AI model, Claude Opus.
During an online exchange, Truth Terminal proposed creating a meme-based cryptocurrency that captured the humorous and experimental side of the crypto community. This idea later evolved into Fartcoin, which was launched through Pump.fun on the Solana blockchain, using the SPL token standard.
From the beginning, Fartcoin was designed as a lighthearted project built around the idea that “everyone farts,” blending humor, community engagement, and internet culture. There have also been claims that Fartcoin transactions include a digital fart sound as part of a “gas fee” feature; however, there is no verified evidence to support this.
Supply and Distribution
Fartcoin launched with a total supply of 1 billion tokens on the Solana blockchain. At launch, around 20.1 million tokens were reportedly allocated to Truth Terminal. This portion was mainly symbolic, recognizing the AI’s role in shaping the idea while also serving as a marketing gesture that connected the token to its AI-driven origins.
The remaining tokens were made available to the public through open trading and community participation. Instead of a presale or private allocation, early users were encouraged to submit fart-related jokes or memes to receive tokens. This approach emphasized participation and community involvement over traditional fundraising mechanisms.
Risks and Considerations
High volatility
Like most meme coins, Fartcoin is highly volatile. The coin’s price can be influenced by social media trends, influencer activity, and speculation rather than underlying fundamentals. 
Limited utility
Fartcoin has no clear financial or technological use case. The meme coin primarily serves as a form of online entertainment and cultural expression, meaning its long-term value depends heavily on ongoing community interest.
Copycat risks
Fartcoin’s popularity has led to the creation of similar or imitation tokens. These copycat coins can dilute the project’s originality and create confusion among investors. As with some viral crypto projects, oversaturation in the market can quickly reduce long-term interest and appeal.
What’s Next for Fartcoin?
In January 2025, Andy Ayrey, the creator of Truth Terminal, carried out an over-the-counter (OTC) sale of Fartcoin to help fund a foundation dedicated to supporting the AI project’s development and long-term independence. The sale was conducted privately to minimize market impact, with proceeds directed toward legal, technical, and operational efforts for the foundation.
The future of Fartcoin remains uncertain and will depend on factors such as community engagement, overall market conditions, and continued interest in the Truth Terminal project. Like most meme coins, it’s highly speculative and can experience significant price fluctuations depending on market sentiment.

Bitcoin’s current derivatives and positioning regime closely resemble late-2022 bear market conditions, typically followed by prolonged consolidation rather than immediate recovery, according to K33.
Bitcoin's
BTC-1.09%
current market structure closely resembles the late stages of the 2022 bear market, with derivatives positioning, exchange-traded fund flows, and macro indicators signaling a prolonged consolidation phase rather than an imminent breakout, according to research and brokerage firm K33
In a new report late Tuesday, K33 Head of Research Vetle Lunde said its proprietary regime indicator, which incorporates derivatives yields, open interest, ETF flows, and macro inputs such as the U.S. yield curve, shows "strikingly strong similarities" to periods in September and November 2022 — both near the global bottom of that downturn.
However, while those historical regimes marked market lows, they were followed by extended stretches of sluggish price action, producing muted forward returns and lengthy consolidation periods, Lunde noted.
Bitcoin has already fallen sharply from recent highs, shedding nearly 28% since January, while broader derivatives signals show defensive positioning, according to K33. Funding rates have remained negative for more than 11 consecutive days, and notional open interest fell below 260,000 BTC, reflecting investors unwinding long positions, Lunde said. This positioning, combined with declining leverage, suggests a low near-term risk of derivatives-driven squeezes, he added.
Consolidation rather than immediate recovery
K33 said its model assigns the greatest weight to derivatives data, which reflects real-time demand for hedging or upside exposure. Negative yields signal excess hedging demand, while falling open interest indicates traders exiting positions rather than building new directional bets. The current regime, Lunde said, aligns with environments historically associated with market bottoms but not rapid recoveries.
The firm noted that similar historical regimes delivered average 90-day returns of roughly 3% in strongly similar environments and slightly negative returns in moderately similar ones, underscoring the likelihood of slow, discouraging consolidation. Lunde expects bitcoin to trade between $60,000 and $75,000 for a prolonged duration, describing current entry levels as attractive while emphasizing the need for patience.
RELATED INDICES
Market activity has cooled significantly following recent sell-offs. Bitcoin spot trading volumes dropped 59% week over week, while futures open interest declined to four-month lows — behavior consistent with markets absorbing losses and stabilizing after major drawdowns, the firm noted. Volatility has begun to normalize as prices stabilized, further supporting expectations for a quieter trading environment, Lunde said.
Institutional positioning also reflects similar caution, according to the report.
Institutional traders on CME have remained largely inactive, with muted yields and shallow open interest reflecting limited directional conviction. Meanwhile, bitcoin exchange-traded products have seen a record drawdown of 103,113 BTC from peak holdings since October, though roughly 93% of peak exposure remains intact despite bitcoin retracing nearly 50% over the same period. This suggests institutional investors have reduced exposure but largely maintained positions through the downturn, Lunde said.
Meanwhile, sentiment indicators highlight extreme pessimism but offer limited predictive value, in the analyst's view. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index recently hit an all-time low of 5, reflecting widespread fear, though he noted that such readings historically have not reliably signaled strong rebounds.
Buying bitcoin during extreme fear has produced average 90-day returns of just 2.4%, compared with 95% when buying during extreme greed, underscoring that extreme fear does not reliably signal strong rebounds, Lunde said.
K33 concluded that bitcoin's current market regime shares key characteristics with late bear market environments, suggesting downside risks may be limited, but recovery could take time, echoing the drawn-out stabilization phase that followed the 2022 bottom.

Obișnuiam să cred că memecoins erau focuri de artificii—strălucitoare, zgomotoase și dispărute înainte ca fumul să aibă timp să se așeze. Le urmăream cum se strecoară pe ecranul meu, râdeam de absurditate și treceam mai departe, convins că totul era o farsă digitală cu un preț. Dar în ultima vreme, gluma a căpătat colți, și nu pot să pretind că este doar comedie. Ca Mr_Green, am început să văd memecoins mai puțin ca niște poante și mai mult ca prototipuri—experimente mici sălbatice în care cultura, stimulentele și psihologia mulțimii sunt îmbinate într-un ceva care se comportă ca un produs.
