The cryptocurrency market witnessed significant volatility this week as Monad and MegaETH intensified their competition. Monad launched its 'TurboSound' upgrade aimed at improving Ethereum's scaling and security, while MegaETH responded with 'HyperCharge' to enhance transaction throughput. In a separate development, the U.S. government narrowly avoided a shutdown, leading to a temporary price rebound in major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Additionally, Uniswap announced its decision to transition from Ethereum to a new blockchain to tackle scalability and cost challenges, eliciting mixed reactions from the crypto community.
