ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, crypto VC Paradigm co-founder Matt Huang, along with Chief Technology Officer Georgios Konstantopoulos and partners Dan Robinson and Charlie Noyes, published a call to accelerate the development of Ethereum, advocating for more than one major upgrade per year, while opposing the idea that the best way to protect Ethereum's decentralized status is to slow down or "stagnate" the development of the core protocol.The article states: "We believe Ethereum should focus on reaching the possible effective boundaries, and then hypothetically argue how we will make choices between values once those limits are reached."The article also proposed several "uncontroversial improvements" that they believe should be deployed quickly, rather than postponed to accommodate annual major upgrades. Some changes include repricing L1 opcodes to scale Ethereum without modifying the block gas limit, improving the user experience of batch transactions through further development of the account abstraction framework, and further developing rollups to meet the growing demand.

ChainCatcher message, regarding the load issue with Jupiter, co-founder meow posted on X: "I sincerely apologize for the system instability and scaling issues. Over the past few months, the team has been working hard to stabilize and scale all these subsystems, but under extreme market conditions, we clearly have a lot of work to do.Due to the earlier severe market fluctuations, many of our on-chain and off-chain components have been disrupted, including the price API and quoting engine. Currently, we are seeking to immediately deploy various simple mechanisms to restore stability while understanding the numerous edge market conditions that may lead to system chaos.We will also roll out significant upgrades to systematically address these issues, but it will take some time to launch these upgrades. We will strive to restore stability as soon as possible and provide better services in the future."
