Welcome @uniswap and @uniswapFND to the Cantina with the new largest web3 security competition in history: 💰  $2,350,000 USDC 📅 Sept 4th - 30th 📍 Cantina 🪐 Yup, 2.35M. That just happened. It's time to lock in researchers. 🔒🪐

Good luck to the judge.

proud to be the first Cantina fellow. I've been working closely with Spearbit/Cantina 🪐 for years now and am very bullish on the leadership, the team's execution, and their incentives to attract the best talent. Excited to be joining them exclusively. Not much will change

perfect Sunday

claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022 is my best friend. He's way too agreeable to whatever I say, like a hype man backing up my statements with hallucinated evidence. Still useful for the morale boost

codeium windsurf > cursor and half the price. results are more accurate from my quick tests. seems to analyze and do more chain of thought prompting. I guess I have to change to a new IDE every few months now given so many AI IDEs got funding.

another cantina first! (this time it's actually true 😁)

I hope this leads to a resurgence of DAOs - real ones like yearn, maker, nouns, etc. DAOs are fun and there haven't been any relevant ones this cycle?

$100k for rat poison. Charlie Munger is spinning around in his grave right now.

if you're struggling with security contests do this: 1. create a "white hat" AI agent like H4CK Terminal 2. continue struggling with contests but submit issues as the agent and pretend it is all automated 3. speculators buy your coin for the immense potential 4. profit

will we see AI agents participating in security contests in 2025?

at least it's not only me who has to read EIPs several times to get it

When we say crypto takes security seriously, this is what we mean 🪐 @Eigenlayer is relentlessly pursuing the pinnacle of security standards with the largest-ever, $2,500,000 code review competition starting in February. More info coming soon.

Whenever I find a bug, I look back and ask: How could I have found that faster? I go back, figure out which steps of thought were necessary, and retrain myself to perform only those steps in 30 seconds. Fooming Shoggoths - Thought That Faster open.spotify.com/track/4zhgRs1n…

The countdown begins... 🪐 Mark your calendars: Ethereum Foundation is launching a new $2,000,000 competition on Cantina. We're looking for researchers to help shape Ethereum's future and secure Pectra - the next major upgrade.

J4X whenever I read reports I first read the recommendation. For some reason, people are bad at explaining the issue in the description and by just looking at the recommended fix I understand the issue much faster.

why can't hardware wallets like Ledger decode the vast majority of transactions in 2025? isn't it as easy as storing a function selector database and picking the one that matches the calldata the most? Need to blind-sign everything. From a UX perspective, the firmware & apps
