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 ...

Network State & Colonialism - Network state exit libertarians are not the primary source of large-scale colonialist evil observed recently [1] - The "exit" position, where individuals create new systems if they disagree with existing ones, is a robust approach with localized and bounded negative consequences [1] - The potential negative consequences of individual actions are inherently limited, even with global reach via the internet [1] Libertarianism & Political Influence - The industry should be kinder to the "exit" position going forward [2] - Evil has recently come from libertarians, notably from political lobbying [2] - The industry opposes "bad deregulation" (eg, AGI/ASI) and deregulation regardless of side effects [2] - The individuals involved in negative actions are specifically not the "exit" faction [2] AI & Global Impact - AI doom will not originate from isolated locations like islands or boats in international waters [1] - Some former libertarians are now focused on taking over existing governments, which carries significant downsides [1]
