This is huge!
#Ethereum
just successfully merged in the first big public testnet 🚀🚀🚀
So awesome to share this moment with this lovely pp 💕
Next up:
- Merge existing POW testnets: Goerli, Ropsten, etc
- .. Mainnet 👀🙏 GET READY!
...aaand mainnet shadow fork 2 was a success!!! 🎉🎉🚀🚀✅✅
This is:

Remember! The ALTAIR fork enables LIGHT-CLIENTS
⭐ a new era begins today ⭐
I'm beyond happy to share that the love of my life said yes!!! ❤️
What a journey we have ahead, LFG 💕🚀🚀🚀
Yes I will only accept ETH as wedding gift

Super proud and excited! but, what’s next? 🧵 Thread below 👇
BIG NEWS: I'm joining Lighthouse at Sigma Prime!
It's been an incredible journey to make Lodestar a top client. Now its team is stronger than ever and will keep shipping excellent software. The motivation to move is purely personal. After a brief burnout and exploring side…

Com'on go! Tell your kids, tell your friend, retweet! 🔥🔥🚀🚀

Huge news today! After many years of hard-work Lodestar is turning v1.0.0 today 😍🎉
Lodestar is merge-ready 🐼
Lodestar is production-ready 🔒
Thank you to all contributors

stoked for what's to come now
RE: Client diversity
The Ethereum community has spent millions of dollars building FIVE consensus clients when it could just developed ONE like any other alt L1, and save cash.
Aaand we here we a super majority client. It kinda feels very wasteful, what went wrong here?
The Beacon chain is growing exponentially
We all like up-only, but not when the safety of Ethereum is at stake. By doing nothing, next year we will enter unknown economic territory with >50% of total ETH stake
Today ACD will vote to bound max growth to buy research time
During ETHGlobal Istanbul we rogue hacked a

Lodestar just released an Ethereum consensus light-client 🪶 tracks the head trustlessly with only:
Sync to head: 25KB / day of data 😱
Follow head: 81KB / day 🤯
Try it out! 👇
NEXT, team-up with eth1 teams to bring user land data 😍🚀

I'm really excited to share a stable devnet running a PoC of Single Secret Leader Election (SSLE) on a fork of Lighthouse ~ Geth
This is an important milestone in Ethereum's roadmap, protecting proposers from targeted DoS attacks that could kill liveness
Gnosis testnet *Chiado* just activated Dencun!
We have blobs and no issues 🐡🐡
Next step, Mainnet! We'll be targeting a few days before Ethereum to deliver on memetics

Gnosis Beacon Chain merge update 📢📢📢
We do not plan to merge

After discussing with Nethermind devs we believe it's safer to allow more time to stabilize the code and guarantee a safe transition. After Sept 15th we will do a call on merge timing

Is LIDO good for Ethereum?
it’s all about the nuance:
- LIDO in moderation is good to Ethereum
- a LIDO monopoly is extremely damaging to Ethereum
Multi-operator liquid staking protocols are a great counter-balance to centralized exchanges. But LIDO is not the only one, and…
Ethereum shapella withdraowls activated! 🦉🦉
the network DOS itself a bit with an initial burst of BLSToExecutionChange messages, but everything is stable now

So someone is trolling
#TestingTheMerge
by running Ropsten miners to hit TTD (merge day) 13 days too early. Even before Ropsten's beacon chain genesis.
This nullifies the current configs are requires new releases from everyone 🥲
If only the ETH price looked like this today 😛
Gnosis shapella owl dropped and finalized!!
Participation dropped from 96% to 90%, which is a tinny blip and a display of great coordination for this fork, we expected to return to pre-fork levels soon
🦉🎉
Merge block is finalized! So far only a minor issue with 1 client combination, currently investigating. Block explorer is lagging but the chain is progressing fine 💯
Next phase of

Gnosis Chain withdrawals are happening soon 🔥
How are
@gnosischain
withdrawals different to Ethereum?
TLDR; same same but Ethereum mints ETH, Gnosis disperses GNO
🧵👇
I co-wrote EIP-6914 with
@dannyryan
to bound the beacon chain state re-using indexes
But should we actually adopt it? 🤔
Wrote some thoughts about the engineering consequences of yes / no, RFC to core devs and stakers!

Gnosis chain Bellatrix fork finalized! 🎉🎉🎉
Participation dropped significantly to ~60% but managed to finalized within minutes. We are currently threading around finality, with participation climbing
👉 Today it's still a great time to update your consensus nodes
URGENT 🚨🚨 Gnosis stakers using Web3Signer
Action required before tomorrow August 1st 11:30 UTC
👉 DAppNode users: click update on 'Web3Signer Gnosis' package
👉 Others: You must add this flag to your setup

I've you have been sleeping on GBC:
There's almost 100,000 validators active as of today, With significant portion of solo stakers. Home stakers are directly incentivized via sponsored purchases of hardware 🤯 via
@DAppNode
An offline Ethereum validator takes 20-30 years to be ejected from the validator set eventually losing ~50% of its stake
This is clearly excessive, instead a validator should be ejected after being offline for:

..are you humans?
Only 29% of Gnosis beacon nodes are ready for the merge, according to

stakers, you must update your nodes before Nov 30th, it's 3 days away**

Chiado (
@gnosischain
merge testnet) update 📣📣📣
TLDR; Chiado is rebooted 🧵👇
The network successfully tested an AuRa -> PoS merge with astounding community participation. It fullfiled it's role to educate and engage stakers
But the network had some flaws
Gnosis chain withdrawals are coming soon with the Shapella fork 🚀
The logic here is similar to
#Ethereum
, but an ERC20 is withdrawn instead of the native token. We use a system transaction for it,
..but it introduces a downstream problem that we should address

First Lodestar successful participation in a testnet launch today! 🚀🚀 And we got to propose the first block 💯 Great work to all teams on Altair progress

Gnosis is having its first release of official merge-ready clients today, to prepare for the Merge. 🐼🦉🐼🦉
🗓️Scheduled ~7th December 2022
Details below.👇👇👇
1/7
Whisk SSLE (Ethereum's feature to add privacy to proposers) has a nasty side-effecf forcing honest proposers to perform prohibitely expensive crypto to not miss any blocks
Why this happens and a simple solution in today's post 🔐👇
Gnosis withdrawals update 📢📢
Testnet "Chiado" is forking to Shapella very soon
👉 Wed May 24 2023 13:12:00 GMT+0000
Then, if all goes well, Gnosis follows in ~1 month
Why focus on Gnosis chain now?
✊ Bold to be first on adopting Ethereum's beacon chain design
⭐️ Uphold Ethereum values since their OG beginnings
🛠️ Key testing ground for current and future beacon chain features
With the Merge TM almost here,
@miga_labs
dropped a huge research piece on client performance
TLDR; all clients are amazing, run minority
Your favorite underdog client
@lodestar_eth
is up there kicking ass delivering production readiness 🔥🚀
