I have mentioned /aztec on many occasions and now they are closing in on mainnet I do believe they will gate onboarding with some form of identity verification. A couple of existing tools that could be used 1) On chain KYC attestation, such as Kraken verify - already around 10K verified addresses https://inkonchain.com/verify 2) Direct deposit from a regulated exchange 3) Direct fiat onboarding via bank/cc - give a fee rebate to users 4) Throttle but allow the address already connected to CEX 5) existing on-chain KYC/POH platform like ZKpassport https://zkpassport.id/ Privacy and OSS are major pillars of Ethereum, and I am rooting for aztec

We're already one month into this experiment, and you can see the updated leaderboard, which shows whose prediction has been right so far. and to make a fool of myself, I understood the point distribution system quite and could not make the changes on changes on time. I am still postive but I wanted to sort even more. Unless a black swan event happens, those predicted TVL gains by others are inflated by margin of 2-3X. https://opleaderboard.com/

After holding it for a long time, I finally caved in and tried the warplet. 1) open wallet 2) choose a pair 3) swap 4) done No need for unnecessary approvals. Would recommend 10/10

If all the unnecessary drama was not enough, they didn't release a csv file of all eligible addresses. Why do projects hesitate to do it?

Satoshi wrote the Bitcoin white paper a decade ago. Next is Vitalik with smart contract Curve, uni and Aave continue to inspire and lead DeFi. Back to today and we are promoting pimping. What the fk happened to us.

Just noticed that this was launched from the official Base account. Are they hacked, intern gone wild or some kind of late April fools joke. Aren't they supposed to be above the dirt, set a standard, innovative and bring something which is not pump fun fork

It hurts to see a token vaporizing 3Billion in less than 15 min, insiders mostly come out winning while normies and their followers left bag holding. It was Luna last cycle, OM turning into luna of this cycle unless someone exploited the project and sadly there are many more projects in this cycle with Billions in valuation on vapour projects.

I am confident that the current L2, also considering MegaETH, is ready to take the next set of users, we don't need 5-20X innovation on the L2 side. What I feel is needed is wallet experience like Phantom, one approval to swap a token and only one to un/stake. Make it simple and stupid.

I miss Aztec, apart from BTC, this was the second project I used thoroughly. My expectation remains the same from them, offering private transactions and defi Their interactive roadmap https://aztec.network/aztec-roadmap

I am not a developer but post from @timdaub.eth speaks volumes. "Everyone in Ethereum is speaking about serving developers. But the truth is, the average developer experience is only getting worse" "Sometimes I feel like people in prestigious positions,..., are just tweeting something for the likes, but then their organization does the exact opposite of that". imo, he nailed almost everything, challanges of a developers, liquidity fragmentation and state of L2s. Not sure if there are more sharing similar concern but afriad to speak up. https://x.com/timdaub/status/1909519721256431707

Wallet ux sucks but there are better alternatives compared to Metamask, still, it continues to dominate the market, like a default EVM wallet. I thought of bridging to Superseed and reading their docs only to find this.

Does anyone know what happened to Soulwallet, an ERC-4337 compatible wallet? They did a soft launch last year but their website is down and the app is no longer working. https://ethglobal.com/showcase/soul-wallet-5srye https://dorahacks.io/buidl/4079?roundProj=3113

The Futarchy experiment was fun, the first of its kind and received quite a lot of community engagement. Distribution of grants is always a challenging task and I am excited to see how this plays out. https://x.com/Optimism/status/1902420867013079131

Old folks in this space could related, this crash feels somewhat unnatural, and if we are already in a bear market, it is even more frustrating and could potentially mark the end of the 4-year bear-bull cycle. Aside from BTC, Solana, XRP, and a few newer coins, most projects have not reached a new ATH.

It's not a bad idea to reflect on the past. (March 2023) Bitcoin remains a digital store of value, Tether continues to dominate the stablecoin market despite numerous accusations, XRP has surged nearly fourfold and won its case against the SEC, and, finally, one glorious collapse of a notorious Ponzi scheme

Love to see the Safe team sharing a postmodern of the recent ByBit hack, coming out in public, and accepting that their product was compromised. One open question remains though, how come one developer holds access to push directly to prod. https://x.com/safe/status/1894768522720350673
