Crypto investors should blanket ban all deals with companies represented by Milbank. That firm should lose 100% of this sector’s business and hopefully all of its tech business as well. Gurbir Grewal is a scumbag. Only remedy is a commercial fatwa.

Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) has been a prominent topic since its formalization in the Flashboys 2.0 paper in 2019. However, the question “what are the ways to decentralize block building?” only...

We will vigorously defend ourselves against attempts to enforce illegitimate IP claims over cryptographic techniques in the public domain. We will loudly reject attempts to censor legitimate technical discussion and block scientific advancement. And we will fight for these principles and the future of FHE.

There is quite some magic behind "Swaps", including clever use of collateral or zk-light clients. But from a user perspective it is just very fast and convenient crosschain-swaps, including support of native Bitcoin. Gnosis is a proud investor here.

To the guy who just made 19 accounts for all his extended family and friends, I want u to know we noticed this sybil attack at around account number 4 but we decided to wait until you had wasted your entire day making accounts before banning them. Have a nice day.

Since horses knew about cars, and benefited by learning how to drive them, we now have all these cars with horses in the driver's seat. That's what we are telling ourselves about AI and robots. But we are the horses.

The fact yall are planning for a bear market means there is no bear market coming yet. It comes when we are all bull posting for months on end not when being pragmatic.

The idea that the US health care system is free market or an indictment of the private sector is ludicrous when only 11 cents of every dollar of health care expenditure is out of pocket. It was 33 cents in 1970. It’s a government system with perverse profits for certain players.

Imagine this headline: “Jihadist’s crimes in the Middle East make the killing of Muslims in the west all but inevitable.” The subtext is wanting to justify harm against Muslims in the west while deflecting responsibility onto Jihadists in a foreign land. Now reverse it, and you

It’s amazing how quickly heads can turn with price action But it also highlights how much more there is to come I have conviction in $ETH because I know what it, and the incredible ecosystem, is capable of Price action at these levels is all noise Once people realise…

Ok I'm officially tired of the fact that Ethereum's primary platform for communication is Twitter, a website designed to incentivize hot takes and dunks. I threw together an experimental forum instead.

The fact that “Gary Gensler” became a household name is the greatest indictment of the outgoing SEC Chair. The average American should neither know nor care who heads this agency. But Gensler abused his post to raise his celebrity—and in the process, nearly destroyed an entire

Even with "native rollups" there is no guarantee that base would use them. Why would they? If they can get the same ux for their users, they're going to want to own that ux. I'm not saying it isn't a problem that they could turn on fees. Just don't think native rollups fixes it.

This is subtly a very dangerous direction. Not only is Ethereum facing pressure to centralize by making blocks bigger and faster. This part isn't new. But the same is happening at the gov layer, where people are calling for more centralized vision, roadmap, and decision making

The FBI is warning that hackers are gaining access to law enforcement and government email addresses to file fraudulent "emergency" data requests with U.S. companies to obtain user data — which is often then used for doxing and financial fraud.

Pretty interesting. The most likely scenario in the 538 model was what happened. That Trump would win all 7 swing states. This happened in 20% of the simulations. 14% of the time it was Harris that won all swing states. And that was the second most common outcome.

OK here's my electoral college map for shits and giggles. US politics is so partisan, it's a movitation game. Despite the hopium you hear from both sides, voters registered for either party hardly ever defect. Registered voters vot

I've developed a slightly changed perspective. There isn't a super clean answer to this. Advisorships are advantageous to core devs/researchers because: 1. They are sometimes paid in tokens that have a potential upside that cannot be matched by salaries at almost any org long

Now that Ethereum a has a competent peer competitor we need to start ruthlessly optimizing every aspect of our game. Good enough is no longer good enough. We need to eliminate every leak.

Jamshid Sharmahd, a German-Iranian dual citizen and resident of California, was executed by the regime in Iran this morning. He did not travel to Iran, but was kidnapped in Dubai and taken to the country, where they murdered him after a sham trial. The mullahs are demons.
