RT vitalik.eth (@VitalikButerin)One thing that can help is to embrace open source:https://t.co/nXE7DtRZ77It's natural to fear technology if it's an inscrutable thing made by Other People that you're supposed to just trust, and you can't participate except as an end consumer.Technology needs to be something that people everywhere can go and inspect and modify to suit their needs, and feel like it's theirs.The intellectual requirements of doing this are of course far higher than 100 years ago, but on the flip ...

RT vitalik.eth (@VitalikButerin)I also love the emphasis on how few lines of code each piece takes.Protocols are not a dirty get-it-out-there thing that you vibe-code, where you accept permanent accumulating garbage in the name of short-term convenience. Protocols are a work of art. They should look as such. ...

The lean Ethereum team has been doing a truly amazing job kicking into gear this year, and delivering on all fronts to ensure Ethereum's long-term scaling, decentralization and resilience.I expect all of these ideas will be ready to kick into gear at roughly the same time as the short-term scaling roadmap delivers on its key milestones.https://t.co/Psv6k7eiUXWill Corcoran (@corcoranwill):Finally, Emile presented a minimal zkVM for lean Ethereum - leanVM.Optimized for XMSS aggregation and recursion. With a 4 ...

These are good ideas!Most of them are delta-neutral (in the sense of the δ network latency assumption), which is even better.To safely do slot time decreases, the thing we really need more of is better measurement of geographic decentralization and economic viability of non-data-center and non-US/EU nodes. That's the dimension we have to be conservative on.barnabe.eth (@barnabemonnot):Let's bring fast finality asap to @ethereum !We published an update on our related work and projects last Friday, and on thi ...

RT RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth 🦄 (@RyanSAdams)The majority of L2 assets don't inherit Ethereum security even if the L2 is Stage 2.This is a challenge we don't talk enough about in Ethereum. We should face it head on.Below is a compilation of L2 assets compiled by @hazeflow_xyz based on @l2beat data.Only the canonically bridged assets inherit Ethereum security guarantees. That's only 34% of L2 assets.The other 66% rely either on a third-party bridge or the L2 itself.Canonically bridged assets (34%) = EthereumT ...
