Our VC friend says the quiet part out loud 👇 Class of 2024 is going to realise a lot later that many of you are not financial che guvera's for going balls deep into memecoins, you're just getting fish fucked by middle aged VCs who crafted a narrative to sucker you in.

Oh you thought the BTC code is ossified? No, there's a robust process for debating periodic protocol upgrades, which involves middle aged men making content that would make even Jim Cramer cringe Study live casted ethereum core dev calls. Lessons in there.

Fully support this modest move to raise the Ethereum L1 gas limit to 40M For reference, this is Vitalik's thoughts on the matter during a reddit AMA in Q4 2023

DRiP Haus founder (Solana project) muses on the inevitability of L2s Soon, we will all appreciate the mental illness needed to assume one single execution environment on one monolithic chain is sufficient or desirable for all the diverse on-chain use cases of 8 billion people

I'm generally a gas bull and think it is time for a gas limit increase. I think the best would be a package of measures: - Increase execution gas limit (to 40m or even more) - Increase blob count (3->8) - Implement EIP-7623 to limit the max block size ethresear.ch/t/analyzing-ei…

a lot people are still massively fading L2s / modular scaling because they think everyone going onchain and submitting tx's via MetaMask or Phantom or whatever to do degen shit on a monolithic chain is the future WRONG L2s represent a substrate which anyone can use to build on

Getting serious ProgPoW flashbacks from ETH issuance change proposal Organized media push out of nowhere, community taken by surprise, backdoor calls to convert ETH influencers, doomer prophecy (100% ETH staked soon!!), backwardish reasoning ("low yield good for solo stakers")

EF math is when $70 for an additional 1Tb SSD + upgraded internet connection is too expensive and reduces global diversity of homestakers - so we can't raise the gas limit but slashing validator rewards by >$2000 per year "will not meaningfully change homestaker dynamics"

With all due respect to the authors, this is completely unintelligible mumbo jumbo.  Here's an open challenge to the Ethereum Foundation foundation: a) state the identified main problem succinctly b) state how the proposed change to issuance curve specifically and definitively solves the

"Ethereum has reached a sufficient security budget and so we need to alter issuance" is a fundamentally different framing than prior "LSTs bad, we need to stop centralisation of stake, so we need to rush this EIP into Electra" a) this new framing has little obvious immediate

Trump clearly endorsing crypto here. There is now no doubt that the Nov elections are a referendum on the future of the digital assets industry in America. also stunning how cognizant and clear Trump is here. Refreshing after listening to a corpse speak for the past 4 years.

After a two year hiatus, sassal.eth/acc 🦇🔊 and I are rebooting the Into the Ether podcast June 4th.

Piece of shit that ran a short attack on Luna - possibly initiating it's final death spiral - after getting 300k Luna loaned to Wintermute as mm, bankrupting 1000s of retail users...claims ethereum will fail because core community advocates +ve sum games LMFAO

I’m 100% opposed to turning Ethereum into a data center chain. As I’ve said many times, protocols that don’t run on consumer hardware will not be censorship resistant. But what I am opposed to is using the specter of home staking to oppose any and all changes. The current

i’ll say it: the EF should completely and publicly reorient around the idea that ETH is programmable money and that censorship-resistant value is THE core value prop of this tech (and it always has been) i think many in EF and in dev roles already do feel this way, but they

A modest proposal for returning value accrual to ETH within the spirit of the rollup centric roadmap: 1) Create an enshrined rollup (or select a chosen one from the existing). 2) That rollup’s sequencer is decentralized using a consensus based on staked ETH 3) That rollup and

The ideology of solo staking in the Sahara on a toaster powered by a potato battery must die so that Ethereum can live.
