Uniswap v4 feels like crypto's first complete product. Uniswap v3 was already nearly there, which is one reason why while previous versions took ~1 year, v4 took 4 years. I can see additional functionality (e.g. unified liquidity) and responding to infra changes (e.g. quantum-resistant zkVMs) that will justify a v5, but the core purpose of this application now feels complete for the foreseeable future. What's remaining is now on the governance & social end. Aave v4 is the next candidate for a complete product. Interestingly, the applications are hitting final form years ahead of the infra they're built on, and in cases like Aave v4, being intertwined with infra itself. (Side-note: of course, simple "products" like memecoins or USDT are "complete")

Someone was likely hacked for $29M (6.27M SUI) on Sui last month on December 12th, 2024. The stolen funds were bridged from Sui to Ethereum via Bridgers and then deposited to Tornado Cash in batches. Primary theft address 0x731c2cd8f060428e7bb520899c855b48bf4b22d981f07a69ce3d0a258f3e589a Theft transaction hash 4xo5ub1BbxgHjFwJv7iBaC4mfds8JSpHAYihAeKDwPBU 6VbgJTWMvomi4VY8hoZcUNPUVaaFcWjZRfxjtdV6MCHo 2WHUdTGonBwDsYW4nVK7zVEVtG9PnRSE9HCRgcmouYgM The victim transferred their .sui domains to a new uncompromised address shortly after the theft. Current limitations with Sui block explorers make the theft difficult to trace.

We are indeed currently in the process of large changes to EF leadership structure, which has been ongoing for close to a year. Some of this has already been executed on and made public, and some is still in progress. What we're trying to achieve is primarily the following goals: * Improve level of technical expertise within EF leadership * Improve two-way communications and ties between EF leadership and the ecosystem actors, old and new, that it is our role to support: users (individual and institutional), app devs, wallets, L2s * Bring in fresh talent, improve execution ability and speed * Become more actively supportive of app builders, and make sure important values and inalienable rights (esp privacy, open source, censorship resistance) are a reality for users including at the app layer * Continue to increase our use of decentralized and privacy tech and the Ethereum chain, including for payments and treasury management ...

There is nothing "ZK" about ZKasino except that it lives on zksync, correct? I guess we have to adapt; even "ZK" is now a mainstream-enough buzzword that full-on scammers are adopting it.

Do "super", "hyper", "ultra", "meta" actually mean anything different beyond just being "cool prefixes" that cycle in and out of favor either organically or suddenly when a major entrepreneur just comes along and names their entire ecosystem after one of them?
