🪙 The Ethereum Foundation has published its new treasury management policy. Key points:

🔴 Expenses will now be tied to two parameters: annual operating costs and the total asset reserve.
🔴 Gradual reduction of spending — down to 5% of reserves per year over the next five years.
🔴 ETH sales will follow a pre-approved plan, executed via swaps and fiat off-ramps.
🔴 Yield generation through solo staking and deploying wETH in DeFi protocols.
🔴 Regular reporting — quarterly and annual updates.
🔴 Project funding will be guided by Defi-punk principles.

The policy comes amid criticism over inefficient fund management and ETH sales. Recently, the Foundation underwent leadership changes, initiated staff reductions, and increased use of DeFi tools for revenue generation.

📊 CryptoQuant: The market has entered a wait-and-see mode, with spot trading on exchanges dropping to its lowest level since October 2020. Coins are barely being sold or moved on-chain. This eases selling pressure but also indicates weak demand.

Future price movement now largely depends on futures market activity.
