Ethereum Foundation Launches Network Security Initiative to Support Trillions of Dollars in Value

input: Ethereum price is trading around $2,500, falling over 1.6% in the past 24 hours despite the Ethereum Foundation launch of its network security initiative aimed at supporting trillions of dollars in value on-chain. The new project, called the “Trillion Dollar Security” initiative, was announced on May 14, and is part of Ethereum’s broader effort to become trusted infrastructure for global finance.

The Ethereum Foundation has launched a network security initiative to support trillions of dollars in value on-chain. The new project, called the “Trillion Dollar Security” initiative, was announced on May 14, and is part of Ethereum’s broader effort to become trusted infrastructure for global finance.

According to the Ethereum Foundation, the initiative focuses on making Ethereum secure for large-scale institutional and retail use. Amid this upgrade, analysts are weighing in on Ethereum price potential after holding above the $2,200 support and predict a bullish breakout to $4,200 soon should optimism continue.

Ethereum Foundation Trillion-Dollar Security Upgrade

The Ethereum Foundation in an X post stated that this new program would assess every part of the Ethereum network. This includes wallets, smart contracts, user experience, and consensus mechanisms. The Foundation said it is preparing for a future where Ethereum handles more users and more money.

Fredrik Svantes, Protocol Security Lead, and Josh Stark from the Ethereum Foundation management team will lead the work. They will be supported by a team of advisors with long-standing expertise in blockchain and cybersecurity. Samczsun, who founded the Security Alliance, will serve as an advisor. Mehdi Zerouali from Sigma Prime and Zach Obront from Etherealize will also join the project.

The first step is to review vulnerabilities and strengths in the ETH network as the Ethereum price eyes a recovery above $3000. The Ethereum Foundation also announced that contributors from the ecosystem and the public will give feedback using a public form on the Foundation’s website.

Three-Phase Plan to Guide Network Upgrades

The Ethereum Foundation explained that the program is in three main phases. The initial phase will involve identifying security issues across the technology stack. This includes wallet design, smart contract architecture, and internet exposure.

The second phase will include applying fixes and launching updates to solve the identified problems. Some of the improvements will get done quickly, while others will require longer planning and coordination. The Foundation said it would work with developers, auditors, and community members to carry out the upgrades which may be the basis for an Ethereum price breakout.

In this last step, the Foundation plans to better explain Ethereum’s security features. The intention is to make users, institutions, and governments aware of the differences between Ethereum and the other blockchains and traditional systems. Education provided to the general public and enhanced transparency are expected to increase confidence in Ethereum, as seen in recent whale accumulations.

Ethereum Price Rally Pushes Toward New Highs

Amid the announcement of the initiative, the Ethereum price has surged. Over the past week, the ETH price has gained more than 50%, reaching a high of $2,750.

However, in the past 24 hours, the Ethereum price experienced a setback, falling by 1.6%. Despite this setback, the ETH price is still trading above the crucial $2,200 support level, which could be a key factor in continuing the rally.

According to crypto analyst Rose Premium, if the Ethereum price manages to stay above the $2,200-$2,000 support range, it could continue its rally to reach the next resistance at $3,000 and beyond.

According to market data, ETH price targets include $3,063, $3,566, and possibly $4,201.

"If ETH holds the previous breakout zone as support, a continuation towards $3,000+ becomes highly probable," She said. According to her chart, the Ethereum price has broken out of a long-term downward trend and may continue its rally if current support holds.
