As a software engineer, I’m sitting down for hours on end everyday. Finding time to move has never been more important. Tonight I decided to run to a libertarian event instead of taking the subway. These decisions add up over weeks, months + years.

I’ve been working for 1 year at @oplabs - it’s a pleasure to work with such talented and hardworking people. Shipping feels good.

this last cycle we got to see who they fair weather 'ethereum supporters' are. I was personally surprised at how quickly people capitulated. - L2 fragmentation will be solved. - ETH value accrual is inevitable.

Thought experiment: What if Base became a native rollup tomorrow, the EXECUTE precompile was live, but SNARK verification wasn’t available yet? How much would it actually cost to run the chain? Today, Base is an Optimistic Rollup. It batches transactions and posts blobs and state roots to Ethereum. But as a native rollup, every transaction batch would need to be fully re-executed on Ethereum using the EXECUTE precompile. Curious to hear rough estimates. What ballpark are we talking?

I posted the exact same content, word for word, to both X and @farcaster. On X, it got 180 views. On Farcaster, it crushed that with 2.7k views (15x more). Hard to ignore the reach you get on Farcaster (I'm pretty sure my X post s reach was throttled because it included external links).

Sprinted for the first time in forever tonight. Very underrated. Time efficient, which is especially great when you feel like you’re glued to your computer all day. Here’s what ChatGPT said (thanks for the HGH):

Throughout my 9 years in crypto, I’ve consistently believed we could improve onboarding by effectively communicating cypherpunk values. My rationale is simple: "if we articulate these values clearly, I believe most people would naturally align with them." If you're unfamiliar with the Cypherpunk Manifesto, I highly recommend reading the original version and the recent Ethereum adaptation by @pcaversaccio. - https://www.activism.net/cypherpunk/manifesto.html - https://hackmd.io/@pcaversaccio/the-ethereum-cypherpunk-manifesto

While everyone on X is complaining about L2 fragmentation, cracked engineers are delivering solutions. Interoperability is coming to Ethereum in 2025. The @optimism Interoperable Superchain gives us: ✅ Unified wallet balances ✅ Low-latency cross-chain transfers ✅ No network switching ✅ & opens up a whole new design space for exciting apps This diagram shows how ERC20 tokens are seamlessly bridged between OP Stack chains.

Apps that vertically integrate with the @superchaineco will leave those that don’t behind. The devnet is live. Few realize how close @optimism is. https://docs.optimism.io/stack/interop/tools/devnet
