our new Maximalists have completely take the wrong lesson from the success of Bitcoin Maximalism. they are looking to its older hostile era as effective when in fact its effective era is its current one, which is muted and disinterested in other ecosystems.

Just watched 'The Wrong Man' (1956), a surprisingly grounded and serious turn from Hitchcock. His only movie based on real life. Especially impressive is Vera Miles as idealised housewife who is slowly turned insane by the events of the movie.

i actually think you could trace many ETH problems back to EIP-1559: - made the distinction *from* Bitcoin fuzzy - ironicallyrevealed ETH's monetary policy is changeable - start of narrative-hopping - large contributor to Maxi folly, which over time looks like arrogance

We should steal Extensions from Solana and rename L2s Ethereum Extensions. It better captures the idea that L2s are part of Ethereum, that L2s extend *from* Ethereum and extend *it.* That you never leave the Ethereum Ecosystem.

polarchain l3 is rebranding back to polarchain l2. while this rebrand cost 50m approx we feel our users prefer the original name.

some quick thots on ethereum alignment as a term: - the term itself needs to be more legible, to clarify if its the same, different or adds to the social layer. - the term rubs many the wrong way implying cultural centralisation and i often wonder if cypherpunk (MECA) is the better choice. it is easier for people to align with cypherpunk values broadly than what they may perceive to be Ethereum top brass (fantasised or not) - i would promote EA (or similar) in terms of the security of the protocol from social, cultural or political attacks. in an era where protocol security is robust, the social becomes the soft belly - legibility can lend legitimacy, but can lead to Goodhart's law, so we have to be careful (academia is a warning sign here)

ok let me put it the other way. some cypherpunks are a bit degen, i accept. but, more importantly, most degens are not cypherpunks. the latter is more consequential.
