Platforms were a shortcut. Networks are the endgame. Markets are settling on Ethereum.

@DefiIgnas Something that deserves more weight in these discussions is how much of Aave's success over the years is due to Aave Labs/Avara, and how challenging it is to run an actual company as a DAO. DAOs are structurally incapable of shipping competitive software. Every product decision

The attacks on Europe I've seen here the last couple of days, including from people I've generally considered interesting and sophisticated, have been getting unhinged... I get that EU has problems - GDPR clickthroughs are dumb, Chat Control is awful, they need to be less

In case you’re wondering what’s actually happening on Farcaster: - One of the founders announces a pivot to wallets and trading, arguing that “decentralized social doesn’t work”. - The community pushes back, pointing out the lack of progress on protocol-level decentralization,
Farcaster is admitting what everyone felt for a while. The decentralized social network never found real PMF. Despite 4.5 years of trying and a few successful adoption spikes. X networks effects too hard to break free from. Instead, Farcaster will focus on being a wallet

First Uniswap CCA auction is done, and it was beautiful $59m in bids. No sniping, bundling, timing games Just slow, fair price discovery ending at 59% above the floor — with literally days to bid earlier and get a better average price Even if you bid $10b fdv on the first

enabling generic hooks on a protocol is hard. with @Uniswap v4 you run into a chicken-and-egg problem: hooks without volume aren't worth verifying, but a hook rarely gets volume unless it’s verified in the first place. at @slice__so we avoid this by surfacing the hook’s risk
@austingriffith Building hooks is permissionless. Building a frontend is permissionless. Integration in other frontends is up to those frontend Integration into our frontend requires us be confident in its security. To date we’ve integrated around 40 hooks with more being integrated constantly

x402 payment volume switched from 95% on base to 90% on solana in 30 days. machines don't care about your coinbase partnership when solana costs 100x less per transaction. ai agents making 10,000 api calls daily pay $1 on solana vs $100 on base. the robots already voted.

PeerDAS in Fusaka is significant because it literally is sharding. Ethereum is coming to consensus on blocks without requiring any single node to see more than a tiny fraction of the data. And this is robust to 51% attacks - it's client-side probabilistic verification, not

systems tend to stagnate as they grow, yet progress comes from the willingness to evolve. reading through fusaka’s changes, this comment from @VitalikButerin is a great reminder that ethereum must stay adaptable, even when it requires breaking changes. happy fusaka day!

@tyneslol being quantum secure should be done for the sake of being secure, not for the sake of satisfying any investor

In 2021 rollups were new, $0.50 per tx, and the consensus was that alt L1s would eat Ethereum’s lunch @hosseeb even wrote a post titled “I’m worried nobody will care about rollups” 2022–23: $0.10 2024: <$0.01 2025: $0.005 Tomorrow, fees drop to fractions of a penny, forever
