Apples of the Infinite Garden: A Children's Book on EIP-7918

Audrey the Auctioneer, Pontus the Ponderer and Therese the Tree Tender have started an apple orchard in a huge garden. The friends have a vision: feeding the world with apples. Let's follow them on their journey 🧵👇

Gonna steal this idea for all upcoming EIPs

This was my favorite 

"The optimal amount of fraud is non-zero," because "everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." Complexity is generative, but "all complex ecosystems have parasites."

Supporting privacy for everyone, and making the necessary tools open source, universal, reliable and safe is one of the important challenges of our time.

an experiment worth running would be a web3 creator platform that smooths out the distribution curve by reallocating $$$ from some of the hits to the whole user population

Large language models provide us not with truth, but with the aggregate of public discourse.

That is why.

If you’ve got the skills and are looking for a new challenge - this is a good one.

Details and application here (Deadline is April 30)
https://blog.ethereum.org/2025/04/10/epf-6

Come help shape the future of Ethereum.

EPF6 runs from June to November 2025.
Two in-person meetups:
🇫🇷 @ethcc in Cannes
🇦🇷 @devconnect in Buenos Aires

Not quite ready? The Protocol Study Group is a great place to start.

We are looking for people who can write solid code and care about the low level stuff: networking, clients, consensus, testing, etc.

Client teams offer project ideas for you to work on, or come with your own idea.

EPF includes mentorship, stipend, and support from researchers and devs actively shaping the protocol.

Applications for the sixth cohort of the Ethereum Protocol Fellowship are open.

If you are an experienced software engineer curious about Ethereum core development, this is for you.

Good luck existing in the world over the next decade.

@vgr has a great take on the what and why of writing with an LLM. 

TLDR: it’s not just about making it easier…

Summer of Protocols

Final weekend to enter the Terminological Twists protocol sci-fi contest. Deadline April 14.

https://protocolized.summerofprotocols.com/p/terminological-twists

Select a term for a technical or procedural concept with protocolish connotations and write a short story that explores some unexpected and startling implication of the concept. Examples to consider: packet switching, boot sequence, cap-and-trade, chain of custody, kill-chain, zero-knowledge proof, multisig, social distancing, fuel partitioning, priority boarding, self-checkout, vampire sneeze, 5-second rule, first-in-first-out.

Writing with AI is so much more fun than I thought it would be. It’s a great creative sparring partner.
