Jump Crypto’s Proposal to Remove Solana’s CU Limit Gains Traction

This move aims to allow high-performing validators to dynamically enhance their block capacity.
  • The plan eliminates the current fixed 60 million CU limit.
  • Adapting block size to transaction demands.
  • Encouraging validators to upgrade infrastructure.

Jump Crypto’s Firedancer proposes eliminating Solana’s fixed 60 million compute units block limit post-Alpenglow upgrade, aiming for dynamic scalability through high-performance validators.

This could increase Solana’s transaction capacity, spurring validator hardware upgrades, but risks centralization and needs careful handling to maintain network stability, shaping SOL ecosystem dynamics.

The Coincu research team highlights potential centralization risks if smaller validators are marginalized. However, the network’s increased throughput could boost Solana’s adoption in DeFi and NFT sectors, driving demand for SOL and enhancing its market positioning.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
