Palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, there's cheap gas in the future, blobs are ready.

"It's basically like, 'I have no belief system rooted in a culture, and a long history, so therefore I am a la carte assembling it via the Apple Podcast app.' Jesus!" An all time great line from @dwr.eth in Episode 64 😂

Congrats to @moritz and @metony on the launch of Fluidkey. One of the most rewarding things you can see happen as a developer is people building on top of things you contributed to. Love to see the foundational work we've played a part in being productized!

Happy to share that our paper on Stealth Addresses got published!🎉 We introduce a standardized Stealth Address protocol for Ethereum (ERC-5564), enhancing privacy with unlinkable transactions. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10426757

For a couple of years, I wrote a modestly popular tech-focused crypto newsletter. In 2018, in the 11th issue, I wrote that ENS and Gitcoin were two of the handful of projects I believed had real staying power. At the risk of breaking my arm to pat myself on the back, I think this was a pretty prescient call 😇

The fact that you can't rely on a given (contract) address on chain A and chain B being controlled by the same entity is a much bigger problem for building better cross chain experiences than most people realize. It's also a barrier for AA adoption.

Some important things to watch out for in order to get a sense of Farcaster's long term viability: 1) how long does it take the hype cycle to slow down, because it inevitably will, and how much does it "crash" vs. level off 2) how does community/vibe hold up when that happens

How does Farcaster deal with bots? Moderation of channels--anything else?
