What does the future hold for Ethereum? Last week at the Founders Show, some of the industry's top voices shared insights into Ethereum's Pectra upgrade, how best to scale Ethereum, and its role in shaping the future of the Web3 space 🧵Key points from the discussion 1/
I'm so glad Google finally replaced Assistant, a simple program that can only understand straightforward requests like "open the gate", with a much more sophisticated language model that understands the parameters of its own existence.

Before Punks, there were names. Don’t believe me? ask @nicksdjohnson.
We know you’re all pumped for Namechain. But we’re not just building an L2 — we’re building a whole new ENS. Today, we’re launching the ENSv2 Hub: a single place to learn about everything that’s coming and stay up to date on our progress. ens.domains/ensv2 🧵👇
zkemail 🤝 @ensdomains 🚨 Introducing Email-as-ENS: now your email address can be your ENS name! Seamlessly map your email to your Ethereum wallet and use it across the web3 ecosystem. Easy as [email protected] becomes alice$gmail.com.zkemail.eth (this will become [email protected]…
Ethereum is defined by the innovators who build on it. This often looks messy, but it's an important and deliberate choice. Yesterday, I wrote about this in @CoinDesk, and described the value in uniting around this ethos of decentralisation bit.ly/4nlvnUw
That’s a .eth in a Shopify x Coinbase ad. No big deal.
Today, we are launching USDC support on @Shopify Payments. We have partnered with Coinbase to build a new escrow smart contract on @base that makes crypto payments work seamlessly for ecommerce. Auth, capture, refunds - all work as you expect. We have worked with @stripe to make…
Big personal news: I joined @ensdomains to supercharge developer relations! ⚡ ENS is already fundamental infrastructure for Ethereum, and it has the potential to become the naming layer for everything onchain with Namechain and ENSv2. Nobody uses IP addresses to browse the web,…

I've always considered there's an inevitability to Ethereum addresses being replaced with #ENS names. However, it's not been happening fast enough for my liking. Especially in the domain of naming smart contracts. With DNS it took ten years for it to go from creation to…
GM, this is why we created ENScribe We're here to accelerate contract naming and build greater trust in smart contracts powering the apps on #Ethereum.
What is the best website/app that onboards a new user into web3? gets them ETH, an ENS name and profile set up, shows them some basic defi, etc
We got an AI-enabled cat flap to prevent our cats from bringing prey in with them They're having some trouble figuring out why the door sometimes doesn't work. 😂
A new legal letter aimed at OpenAI lays out in stark terms the money and power grab OpenAI is trying to trick its board members into accepting — what one analyst calls "the theft of the millennium." The simple facts of the case are both devastating and darkly hilarious. I'll…
Namechain is how we scale names across Ethereum. Built by @ensdomains, it’s a purpose-built L2 bringing fast, low-cost, and consistent naming to every corner of the L2 ecosystem. It’s all part of the ENSv2 vision: better UX, better performance, and a future anyone can build on.
Outstanding news: Google has reconsidered and will be fixing the oauth bug!
