Recasting: 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁: What is "Ethereum alignment" for wallets?

My take: It is a set of attributes around:
Security, privacy, self-sovereignty, user experience, and transparency.

Breakdown as a thread. 🧵

It is no coincidence that these echo the values sought in other parts of the Ethereum stack.
@vitalik.eth talks about this in his blog post on making Ethereum alignment legible:

Goal: Keep all parts of the Ethereum stack true to the original Ethereum mission.

This can't be done by any central actor; it must be bottoms-up.
L2Beat is the best implementation of this in Ethereum, focused on L2s - a critical part of Ethereum today, but not the only one.
Other parts must be held up too: MEV, transaction censorship, staker centralization, and... wallets.
Who watches the wallets?

walletbeat is to my knowledge the best but only effort to date so far: https://walletbeat.fyi

It was created by @moritz and already categorizes wallets along several important features and dimensions.

My goal is to extend it. I am looking for feedback as to how.
