Steam is doing mass bans because of the pressure from tradfi payment providers, yet there are absolutely zero mentions of it in my crypto bubble. Are you guys even paying attention???
>apps and infrastructure that empower people instead of MEV bots I wrote a thread on it a long time ago, but still don't understand how this problem is being effectively addressed. For the overwhelming majority of the population, identity (especially some obscure blockchain ID)…
2/ World is building the first human-centered blockchain. Their flagship World ID protocol uses ZK to verify proof of humanness on @World_Chain_, creating a foundation for apps and infrastructure that empower people instead of MEV bots.
A great article on Based Rollups. I love its focus on the abstraction from underlying implementations and think it's very important as it clears out common misconceptions. I feel like we're re-entering the era of active design explorations and I couldn't be more excited!

It's easy to understand why maximalism is stupid if you're at least a little bit technical. "I want all the planes to be Boeing 747 bc it's big and cool, Cessnas don't have a chance." "I want everyone to drive Toyotas bc they're reliable and affordable" "e=mc2 is the only winning…
being close minded about other blockchains isn't being "faithful" or "loyal" it's maximalism and it's stupid
This is an interesting topic to think about. Imo, L2s are definitely taking advantage over L1 and I wrote a lot about it previously. But at the same time, it's what makes Ethereum so attractive to large fintech players. In my book, being taken advantage of is not something to…
the ethereum roadmap after capitulating to the idea that L2s are parasitic and then discovering, moments later, that robinhood and stripe are launching… L2s
Btw, if you're traveling with an Android phone with no eSIM functionality, I'd like to show you this piece of Chinese craftsmanship. No vendor lock-in, eSIM profiles controlled with an open-source app. And it works really well, 5G too.
Some people are close to creating a digital super intelligence while other people can't comprehend evolutionary algorithms. Such distribution of knowledge and reasoning abilities strikes me more than wealth inequality problem tbh.
This is a great overview of the problem I also wanted to highlight some time ago as part of a larger series of threads. Glad that I'm not the only one who noticed :)
Today, we introduce a new thesis: MEV has become the dominant limit to scaling blockchains. Spectacularly wasteful onchain searching is starting to consume most of the capacity of most high-throughput blockchains. This is a market failure we can no longer ignore.
