With the long-awaited switch to ETH2 nearing completion, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin laid out an "Endgame" plan to ensure the upgrade is completed. While Buterin does not address the problem of centralization with block production as the network strives for scalability, the 27-year-old discussed virtually all other aspects of block validation.

On Tuesday, leading crypto exchange Coinbase introduced a mirror version of Ethereum's native coin, ETH, to its crypto price index, dubbed Eth2. There was no trading activity on the new listing, although it was valued the same as ETH.

Even though Eth2 isn't anticipated to be released until at least mid-2022, Coinbase has launched a currency with the same name only days before the innovative contract network's "Arrow Glacier" update, which will allow developers extra time to prepare for Ethereum 2.0.

With the WazirX crypto exchange partnership, a central Indian bank violates the 'banking prohibition.' According to local media sources, India's largest private bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, has signed an agreement with significant crypto exchange WazirX to become the first of its type to work with crypto business.

The agreement, which allows dealers to sell their digital assets using Kotak's banking facilities, is a significant step forward for a local crypto market beset by several challenges posed by the banking sector and the Indian government. Bitcoin (BTC) is at $47,524, Ether (ETH) is $3,956, and XRP is $0.81 after the week. According to CoinMarketCap, the entire market cap is $2.20 trillion.
