1/ Extraordinary week ahead, but let's take a moment to recall the key Ethereum updates from the past one!

Dencun upgrade on the Ethereum mainnet is scheduled on March 13, epoch 269568.

3/ Goerli has not been finalized since March 6. There was a mass slashing of Nimbus nodes on the Goerli, which triggered the bug when Prysm thought the epoch would justify, but it didn't.

Have a gut feeling, we won’t see it finalized before it shutdown.

4/ During the latest All Core Devs Consensus (ACDC) call, #Ethereum core developers discussed their final preparations for the upcoming #Dencun upgrade. For detailed notes, check out @christine_dkim's summary: https://www.galaxy.com/insights/research/ethereum-all-core-developers-consensus-call-129/

5/ Blobs are coming this Wednesday, and everyone is trying to predict the impact on the L2s transaction costs. 

Play with the saving estimator from @Optimism, https://welovetheblobs.xyz/, or check @LouthingE's pinned post to see the cost reduction it may bring.

6/ In just 13 minutes, an $8.75 million loss occurred during the WOOFi exploit.

The exploit involved using a series of flash loans to manipulate WOO's price in a low liquidity scenario, allowing the attacker to repay the loans at a lower cost.

7/ No single week with no news from SEC.

This time maybe a positive one, as #SEC has ceased and desisted against Shape Shift, although some SEC Republican members dissent in a very posh and metaphorical manner:

8/ Wyoming passed a new law to recognize DAOs as legal entities. This move allows networks to function within the framework of relevant laws without sacrificing their decentralized nature.

2/ Everstake has successfully upgraded whole ETH stack to versions compatible with the Dencun fork: all Geth- and Nethermind-operated validators, Beacon nodes, and validator clients, as well as MEV-boost nodes, are now ready.

If you're running a validator, upgrade your nodes. If you're a staker, no action is needed.
