I miss the old Ethereum days, when we assumed everyone would act in their own self-interest, and we tried to build systems that allow coordination and cooperation anyhow. Now it’s flipped to: ‘L2s should contribute to ETH’s value because we all like each other so much.’

🧵Introducing EIP-7999: Unified multidimensional fee market. Ethereum is like a supermarket with one inventory label. There are 45M eggs, 45M cheese, 45M snacks. etc, but everything scans as "1 food". To avoid empty shelves, it closes once 45M food has been sold during the day.

An underestimated leakage is thread/async task/coroutine leaks, so that a scheduler would keep giving CPU time for unimportant things while latency-sensitive things are not run aggressively enough. We just fixed a nasty latency leak where we don't terminate Tokio tasks fast

weekly cleaning

Gustavo Gonzalez donnoh.eth 💗 we're also looking for ways to optimize and better handle blobs across the PBS pipeline, a couple of examples: - optimistic v3 (no latency hit for blocks with blobs) - relay block merging (relay can add blobs at the bottom of the block) i expect both to show meaningful

[my bags] fixes this

donnoh.eth 💗 stokes Francesco @bertcmiller ⚡️🤖 We recently made significant improvements to our blob handling pipeline and are now above the baseline on the 7d stats. As mentioned by others, we are also closely working with various relay teams on block merging and Optimistic V3, so expect to see these numbers increase 🫡

slot_time /= 2

could not agree more, I like deleting code more than writing code

decentralization doesn't matter until it does . regulatory arbs eventually close bloomingbit.io/en/feed/news/9…

okay but forced inclusion is way way lower throughput (higher cost) and hours extra latency. nobody uses it because it is not economically viable so its disenguous to characterize runahead sequencers as "only a fast lane". it literally controls access to all useful blockspace

fast forward one month and Titan Builder 🌕👷‍♂️ is now one of the builders with the most blobs included , above even vanilla validators

Someone is burning $100k a month, making zero ETH transfers to the Maestro router, but why? Whilst trawling etherscan, I noticed an unusual amount of high-priority fee empty transfers to Maestro: Router 2. Opening the Maestro router showed these were extremely frequent, often

on thursdays we delete code

(some) rollups are cool but scaling the L1 should be the highest priority

hot take lets stop making ethereum more complex

It is worth an extra quarter of testing to have FOCIL in a delayed Glamsterdam. FOCIL should have been in Pectra. FOCIL should have been in Fusaka. We need to ship this and the stakeholder feedback was tremendously in favor. FOCIL is not of mere theoretical benefit. Private

FOCIL and 6s slots would greatly improve the censorship resistance that makes Ethereum so valuable . Unfortunate to see both delayed in favour of ePBS

You can just build on L1.
