NEW POD: The ETH Revival Santiago R Santos and I had Ryan Berckmans and Tom Dunleavy on Empire to discuss: 1) How to value ETH 2) Should L2 tokens exist 3) What went wrong 4) Tariff blockspace? 5) Pivot help/hurt L2s? 6) ETH’s next chapter ETH bulls rejoice.

Should Ethereum Tariff The L2s? Ryan Berckmans Tom Dunleavy Clip taken from our most recent episode out now! Links below! ↓

more great cooking on EIP-7918, which greatly improves the blob pricing mechanism in a scientific way

. Jeremy Allaire - jda.eth / jdallaire.sol you must not sell to Ripple, they will use the power it gives them over every DeFi protocol and every competitive blockchain for evil...if a definitive agreement is signed, we will be at the DoJ's and FTC's doorstep citing Ripple's history of campaigns against

Last year, Tether made more than double the profits of BlackRock‼️ So why does the GENIUS Act prohibit stablecoin issuers from sharing yield with customers? 🤔 @steven_ehrlich writes unchainedcrypto.com/how-the-senate…

Very exciting for Ethereum and terrific to see this kind of approachable explainer for tech roadmap strategy

Base is hiring a grants manager Eth's grassroots-to-serious-project pipeline, especially for net new innovation, isn't a huge strength for us rn, and needs to be Are you obsessed with app futurism and hungry for us to be 100x more welcoming/curious/adventurous? Apply

Troubling to see the number of serious eth people advocating for product leader candidates with infra backgrounds - candidates who have been here for years and shown commitment to infra and not app futurism. Future is broad+deep onchain economy. Find somebody that lives that

Labor marketplaces are a huge immediate opportunity for Eth Many specific verticals are ripe Another approach is to build a "Uniswap of Labor" with general legos for others to build specific marketplaces Here's a "Uniswap of Labor" concept I made in 2022:

With mini app Noice (noiceapp.eth), any time you interact with somebody's post on farcaster (like or rt a post, etc), you automatically send them a tip in a token of your choice Noice is crushing it, with 10k+ daily payments over the past few days on Base L2 Noice is a pioneer

Noice is a sort of a labor marketplace that runs on payment policies They have 10k automated payment transactions on Base per day over the past few days, with an average of several dozen payments per active user address. Very impressive

A maximally decentralized L1 (eth) is the schelling point for a global scale onchain economy of RWAs/users/protocols/apps Tokenize $5T in RWAs, with 1k issuers across 100 countries, and those powering a $20T onchain economy (TVL/GDP) - L1 decentralization matters hugely here

The anti eth meme "L2s are just multisigs" is dying as more hit stage 1 and some will launch at stage 2 New meme trying to take its place "L2 stages don't help decentralization" - desperate and untrue decentralization = minimize risk. stage 1/2 help minimize risk, pretty simple

Eth's focus on decentralization targets the 0.01% worst-case scenarios that hopefully never happen Real risks for institutions include war, 0-day bugs, state coercion, and an alt L1 colluding with their competitors. Not rare sequencer downtime Ethereum L1+L2 minimizes real risk

Broke: institution builds on eth Woke: institution invests in other eth businesses <-- BlackRock is here Bespoke: institution buys ETH to own the territory

as a 90s/00s kid, it brings me great joy to see the sense of adventure and playfulness in Base and other eth vibes that I remember from the dawn of the internet. right in the geocities/angelfire feels

This supercut is hilarious All roads lead to ETH

Vivek from Etherealize is testifying to Congress next week Also testifying are Uniswap's Chief Legal Officer, a Former CFTC Chairman, and a Former SEC Commissioner Probably something financialservices.house.gov/calendar/event…

We are honored to speak alongside titans from the SEC, CFTC, and Uniswap this week. A new era for Digital Assets is here.
