It’s disappointing that such an important member of our community is stating we’ve abandoned our users. I’ve, as well as everyone on the
@arbitrum
team, basically been doing 100+ hour work weeks to try and scale Ethereum as quickly as possible. Things take time. Seriously wtf
Yes I have abandoned Ethereum despite supporting it in the past.
Yes Ethereum has abandoned its users despite supporting them in the past.
The idea of sitting around jerking off watching the burn and concocting purity tests, while zero newcomers can afford the chain, is gross.

The Arbitrum academic paper was published on July 25, 2018. The price of ETH was around $470. It subsequently fell to as low as $80. Nobody stopped building. Let's cut through the noise for the long-term signal.

I’m obviously biased here, so take my perspective with a Himalayan-sized grain of salt but I don’t think the criticism is because they don’t have proofs live.

(Maybe?) Controversial take: There is an abundance of cheap blockspace and current users don't seem to have internalized the difference rollups and sidechains or between $.05 and $.01 transactions.

I was disappointed by this tweet and the relevant components of the post. To me, it is intended to obfuscate the comparative technical maturity of the Arbitrum (and Starkware) rollup protocols in comparison to the current Optimism mainnet implementation.
There's an open secret about the decentralization of Layer 2's: whether or not they have fault or validity proofs is irrelevant if they're controlled by upgrade keys.
There, we said it. 🤷♀️
So what is a real viable path towards decentralization?
