Ethereum

Cross-posting a thought on staking from the other app:

------

Perhaps we should recognize that 32 ETH is much more of a barrier for stakers than bandwidth reqs, and temporarily do a trade where we up the bandwidth reqs a bit and in exchange drop the staking deposit minimum to eg. 16 or 24 ETH.

It's net-good for both staking accessibility and scale. Then once we figure out peerdas, bandwidth reqs go back down, and once we figure out orbit SSF, the deposit minimum can drop to 1 ETH.

Base

hey everyone - some news: in addition to leading the @base team, i’ll be stepping up to lead @coinbasewallet and joining the @coinbase exec team. 

i’m really excited to take on this new mandate and to accelerate our mission of bringing a billion people and a million builders onchain.

--

@base and @coinbasewallet share the same north star: make it dead simple for the world to come onchain, and connect everyone who does to the incredible products being built across the entire onchain economy. now, we’ll be able to work together more closely to make this happen.

one important note: @base will continue to uphold its core values of being for everyone, a bridge not an island, and decentralized and open source. @coinbasewallet will continue to work across the entire onchain economy, and we’ll start the work of embodying the other @base values in even more ways.

it’s a new day one.

time to put our heads back down.

keep building and stay based.

Geopolitics

One meta-note on the situation, is that in my timeline I have seen exactly zero non-western people defending Durov's arrest, but quite a few western people.

Definitely don't want to say that they don't exist (after all, my timeline is biased just like anyone's), just this is what my sample is so far.

IMO this is another example of the decoupling of liberalism and westernism that https://x.com/MacaesBruno often talks about.

Hub Sync Issues

Earlier this week, Warpcast's hub stopped broadcasting for ~ 12 hours.  Here's what happened:  

1. Warpcast runs many hubs but writes to one at a time.
2. That hub lost all connections (possibly due to AWS outage) 
3.  Reconnecting failed due to a bug introduced by recent libp2p upgrade
4. Alerting was not set up to catch this case

Words Only

Chatting with an Army buddy about embracing challenge-seeking behavior in our daily life

My buddy said he realized that “People without a growth mentality seem almost maliciously lazy” when you live that way

Not a value judgment (we all have different struggles), but this sums up a lot of my unconscious thinking

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a taxable event. To me, being a taxable event was better than being President of the United States.

Roman or Romans most often refers to: Rome, the capital city of Italy; Ancient Rome, Roman civilization from 8th century BC to 5th century AD; Roman people
