I guess I started an accidental AMA on which parts of the crypto space are good and which I'm so far not excited about, along with other big picture vision questions:

You should feel free to ask questions here too! Let's see if Farcaster can come up with higher-quality questions than the other app :)

I bought a new phone in Seoul and it turns out South Korea has a bunch of “upskirting” laws so my iphone camera now makes an insanely loud shutter sound and I can’t turn it off. 

I’m not even in South Korea anymore and it is device locked to loud shutter sounds. So bad. Why do bad things happen to good people

What it feels like to post Warpcast criticism on Warpcast, before dancing off to post Bluesky criticism on Bluesky:

Surreal seeing Ethereum all over the New York stock exchange today. I’ve dedicated the last 10 years of my life to this technology.

Thank you @hunter @bitwise for bringing together some of us in the community to celebrate this historic moment with you and the industry.

Ethereum

Latest Week in Ethereum News

On one hand, seeing SEC finally approve an ETH ETF feels amazing and is a serious win.

On the other hand, it's comforting to know that the ETF hasn't changed ETHs price much. It means that the network doesn't care about ETFs, as it should.

fc-updates

This update is going out today. If you are running a hub, manual action is needed.  You can: 

1. Use the shell prompt to ack by upgrading hubble 
2. Set up an environment variable which will let the upgrade go down seamlessly 

See the video below from @wazzymandias.eth for more details

@vitalik.eth wrote a really great blog post on the issue of aligning w/ pro-crypto candidates. Unsurprisingly, yours truly caught the writing bug and wrote a long response to V's post on X. The original thread is now available to read as a blog: https://hackmd.io/@emmanuel-awosika/single-issue-voting-crypto. 

Enjoy!

ethers -> alloy migration taking longer than expected, but the next heimdall patch shouldn’t be far away.

proxy support is next on the agenda afterwards
