DRAM Prices in Freefall: Mainstream 16GB Memory Module Sees Largest Single-Day Price Drop of Over 100 RMB

2 hours ago

March 30 (Sina News) — Memory prices have plunged sharply since last week, with the mainstream 16GB module seeing a single-day maximum drop of over 100 yuan. Wholesalers widely attribute the slump to mass selling by early hoarders. Excessive price hikes earlier had pushed market sales down by more than 60% from pre-November 2023 levels, and weak demand absorption has further intensified selling pressure. Separately, Google has rolled out a new compression algorithm called TurboQuant, which cuts key-value cache memory usage for large language models (LLMs) by at least 60%. The move has prompted markets to revise down AI hardware demand expectations. Per the Financial Times, U.S. memory chipmakers have lost nearly $100 billion in market value this week. Micron Technology’s stock has fallen 15% cumulatively since last Friday, wiping out over $70 billion in its market cap.

Linea is pivoting to the RISC-V architecture

March 30—Ethereum Layer 2 project Linea announced it will transition to the RISC-V architecture. The primary driver: Every Ethereum hard fork required a complete rewrite of its constraint module, forcing the team to prioritize long-term complexity management over pushing cutting-edge performance. RISC-V features just 32 registers and roughly 40 instructions. For proof systems, this translates to a narrower tracking scope, real-time construction, and the ability for provers to start processing proof segments immediately. Additionally, RISC-V offers a slimmer execution trace and Type-1 compatibility, while Linea will retain zkC (Constraint Native Language), Vortex and Arcane (its Proof/Aggregation Stack), and formal verification. Linea noted the move aligns closely with the RISC-V roadmap the Ethereum Foundation is advancing, with more technical details set to be shared in the coming weeks.

Bitfinex Long Positions Hit Fresh High Since November 2023, Signaling Possible Downtrend

March 30: Bitcoin long positions on Bitfinex have climbed to roughly 79,343 contracts, hitting a new high not seen since November 2023. While rising long positions are typically viewed as a bullish signal, historical data shows this indicator often has an inverse relationship with price trends—long position concentration frequently occurs at price tops or just ahead of downturns. Per CoinDesk analysis, this latest surge in long positions, paired with macroeconomic uncertainties, may signal downside risk to Bitcoin’s current range-bound movement between $65,000 and $75,000.

**March 30 – U.S. President Donald Trump, when asked about Iran’s plan to impose tolls for transit through the Strait of Hormuz, said Wednesday he first needs to verify the report—but emphasized the U.S. can “terminate this action very quickly.
