Sure, we're all here to see ethereum thrive! But the magnitude and confidence, as you put it, is really important. It dictates what ethereum is good for, and where it is harmful. We've had so much toxic outcomes in crypto, we must do better. To say "governance" is inaccurate, however, to say "accounting in governance" - yes!

ETHSecurity Community

PSA: it seems like the mailing list provider the EF uses for "updates@ethereum.org" has been compromised. We are currently trying to reach sendpulse.com to resolve the issue. Please don't click any links sent from that email. Here's a sample fake email that was received:

IMHO, L2Beat's/Vitalik's Stages are incomplete. For Stage 2, in addition, 

- Alternate sequencing triggered within 1 epoch (i.e. 6.4 minutes). Currently, Optimism is 12 hours, which is not acceptable (preferably, there's real-time distributed sequencing) 
- Security council has pause rights only; upgrades even for onchain provable bugs must go through governance, emergency path with >X% approval

Then, there should be an optional Stage 3, or Stage X, where:

- Based or based-like sequencing is mandated
- Security council is dissolved
- Smart contracts upgrades require >Y% (80%?) approval from the protocol's full governance, in addition to >30d delay

For big-tent high-value L2s like Arbitrum One, Stage 3 should be the target. For most, Stage 2 should be perfectly fine, and even Stage 1 enough for many lower-value app-specific L2s.

Ethereum Account Abstraction

My claim: When we go 3 consecutive weeks without a phishing victim ticket in SEAL 911, we'll have cracked the code on wallet UX. Sadly, that day seems far off. Meanwhile, let's complicate things further with bundlers, entry points, paymasters etc. ensuring average users have even less clue about the txs they're signing

so jazzed to share "On block-space distribution mechanisms," written with @pgarimidi & @tr! we explore the literature of in-protocol MEV gadgets before honing in on execution-ticket-enabled allocation mechanisms.

keep building

not perfect but it got picked up here https://l2beat.com/scaling/liveness, hopefully we’ll improve soon the page even more

/vip is my favorite channel and it’s not very close

Can someone make a frame that’s allows me to long ETH on Arbitrum? 😂

can someone make a frame to summarize the arbitrum DAO forum

thank you notion for adding pins. even microsoft edge has this but better late than never 😁

Today, 95% of all VCs had to stop writing the next blog post on how to become a good entrepreneur.

elicit is actually kind of useful, when perplexity is too light of a tool

esp for meta-studies and fast lit review

best examples today of client side proving? test environment is fine too, doesn’t have to be in-prod

james carse, “finite and infinite games”, is an overrated book that should have been a blog post

also the writing style is quite poor, or at least not my taste

george orwell would have marked this thing up line by line and probably cut out 60% of the fluff

kinda funny that the claude PWA is actually way better than the actual iOS claude app 😅
