Bitwise doing a masterclass of entering the ethereum ecosystem with its ETFs donating 10% of the profits from their ETF fees to open source protocol development + using ENS addressing for custody addresses this is insane and needs to be more celebrated thank you Bitwise

Its been 32 days since Ethereum generated at least $1 of fees on blobspace Free transactions for the largest, least price sensitive customers

This is a fair criticism of Ethereum and basically my biggest concern atm It's great that blobspace update scaled Ethereum by magnitudes. But you can't have L2's using ETH security and settlement basically for free. Blobspace is severely underpriced and ETH is missing out on a

$ETH is so far ahead of everything else in crypto that pundits have decided to attack it on the basis that it is "highly inflationary" because net issuance has gone up since the Dencun update (as predicted). Here's what they are not telling you: 1. $ETH still has a higher S2F

Stacy Herbert 🇸🇻🚀 ETF was also a “disaster” for BTC after its launch Who is helped by this biased maxi nonsense?

Shut that communist shit up. Rule number one: Get money. Rule number two: don’t forget rule number one.

We’re still on track for a monster second half of 2024 for Ethereum More fuel for the fire, while we purge the ETHE outflows and endure a macro selloff: 1. The institutional ETH marketing machine is roaring 2. Volumes are surging 3. ETH price is just copying BTC post-ETF (1/7)

PeerDAS is the direction #Ethereum is being taken into with the next forks, with the aim to raise (not immediately) the blobs up to a staggering 32MB. That's fun, but are we aware that local block production is collateral damage that the PeerDAS authors are willing to take?

Every time I challenge the direction #Ethereum is taking, I'm told off for being alarmist; nasty towards researchers, etc. So, I have a solution: call "your researcher" now and ask them to explain exactly how they envision the Ethereum network to look like in 5 years.

Ethereum won't continue to succeed if it turns its back on decentralisation. Nor will it succeed if the technology doesnt advance and for that it needs centralised aspects. Ethereum's continued success relies on this fine balance. Nothing else like it exists in crypto. Not even

I often wonder if I'm in the wrong industry. Take SpaceX for example. They send a rocket to Mars? Humanity advances. They fail to send one and blow it up? Humanity learns a lesson and advances. All outcomes lead to progress. In contrast, crypto is a damn casino for dum-dums

Other than L2 settlement, what do we expect L1 to be used for?

Charlie Kirk destroys vegans!!!

timbeiko.eth Decentralized money. And I mean money that is actually used as medium of exchange and unit of account (and of course independent to the $). But we will give it a shot: Circles !

Holding ETH before the election was much riskier than holding BTC, and it continued to show on the ratio. Why? Most all government action from the Democrats has come against ETH or Ethereum projects. Runway is clear now.

Bonus take: One thing I'd like to emphasise: there are *people* behind the current network, who spent the past 5 (CL) or 10 (EL) years building #Ethereum. Any proposal should take into account how it affects them personally. We need our builders, don't alienate them.

Thomas Sowell denounces Trump’s tariffs. I had assumed Sowell was too old to still make public appearances. I like the idea that Trump’s policies are so stupid they shocked him back to life.

I can share this now as I’m through it, I spent all of 2023 suicidal, due to losing every $ we made from DFZ, it was not a traditional ‘loss’, we reinvested every dollar & sold every NFT we owned to fund new dev, yet nothing worked & our movie was canceled during strikes 😞 (1/2)

Everyone in Ethereum is speaking about serving developers. But the truth is, the average developer experience is only getting worse. And I know that because I've been building in this space since 2015. Maybe go easier on virtue signaling to serving devs? We really don't like it
