Vitalik: Ethereum Needs to Set a Smart Contract Size Limit Due to DoS Risk

2 hours ago

On December 23, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin addressed a community question: “Why does Ethereum still have a contract size limit?” He cited concerns over DoS risks as the core reason. Once Ethereum’s state structure upgrades to a unified binary tree (per EIP-7864), unlimited contract size is anticipated. However, gas costs and mechanism design for deploying extremely large contracts still need to be resolved. Currently, costs are calculated on a per-byte basis, leading to an actual contract size cap of around 82KB.

U.S. GDP Growth Surges Rate Cut Fear Could Become "Bubble Burst," January Rate Cut 25 Basis Points Probability Falls to 13.3%

December 23rd — CME’s FedWatch Tool shows the probability of a 25-basis-point Fed rate cut at its January 28, 2026, meeting has dropped to 13.3% following today’s U.S. macro data release, while the odds of holding rates steady stand at 86.7%. Last week, that cut probability was 31%. U.S. third-quarter real GDP grew at an annualized, inflation-adjusted rate of 4.3% (initial estimate) — the strongest quarterly pace since the fourth quarter of 2023. For March 2026, the likelihood the Fed keeps rates unchanged through then is 54.4%, with a 40.7% chance of a cumulative 25-bp cut and 4.9% for a total 50-bp reduction. The Fed’s next two FOMC meetings are set for January 28, 2026, and March 18, 2026.

CertiK: Total Loss of Security Incidents Within the Year Is Approximately $3.35 Billion, Supply Chain Security Emerges as Unignorable Systemic Risk

On Dec. 23, Web3 security firm CertiK released a report showing total losses from Web3 security incidents in 2025 hit roughly $3.35 billion. Supply chain attacks accounted for $1.45 billion—nearly half the annual total—making them the year’s most disruptive risk source. A notable case is the February Bybit breach: Instead of directly hacking the trading platform’s systems, attackers implanted malicious code into a third-party multisig wallet provider’s developer environment, bypassing its multi-approval process. The incident caused losses of around $1.4 billion. Today, attackers are shifting focus to key service providers and underlying tools (rather than individual protocols), turning supply chain security into an unavoidable systemic risk.
