Less friction, faster responsiveness (how many times have you been asked, again, to KYC/fill out forms for you favorite CEX? How long did it take to finalize th ...

RT They Call Me Dan (@TheycallmeDan_)It is great to have forums like this where we talk about solutions for the same goal.We may reach that goal, censorship resistance, in different ways, but as we move forward I believe these true “super hero” blockchains will come to our aide, as we work together to tackle the biggest issues we currently face as a species. ...

I first spoke to Vitalik in Prague in 2023 when crypto developers huddled in hacker collectives fighting for privacy tools and now two years ...

RT sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root / (@pcaversaccio)oh boy we've come a long way. Exactly ten years ago, we lit a beacon against the darkness of surveillance and control. But Ethereum was never just code - it was a clear declaration: that individuals deserve _sovereignty_ over their money, their identity, and the systems they rely on.Ethereum's mission was, is, and will never be about speculation.

The best way to build an L2 is to lean into the L1's offerings (security, censorship resistance, proofs, data avail...) more, and reduce your logic to just being a sequencer and a prover (if based, just a prover) over the core execution.This is the combination of trust minimization and efficiency that the 2010s enterprise blockchain crew wanted, but was never able to achieve. Now, with Ethereum L2s, you can achieve it. And we've already seen successful examples of the L1's features protecting users' rights ...
