Immediate unfollow and/or mute. I haven't seen many meme coins recently.

By using eth_getProof my light client doesn't have to *trust* an RPC provider, but I still have to use them, right? My client needs to have an API token and it still needs to connect to them. Is there currently a way not to use an RPC provider?

Isn’t it a clear ethics violation to keep the code after removing their names from the maintainers list?

They offer a firmware update. I am sure you don't have to install it. And that is the same with any hardware wallet. What would you prefer? No updates?

Looking for books or online courses about the inner working of Ethereum after the Merge. Basically a more accessible version of the consensus-specs (https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/dev/specs/capella/beacon-chain.md) and the execution-specs. If possible with a focus on light clients.
