If you run Geth, shave 400 GB of storage in two easy steps :) 1) prune pre-merge history with "geth prune-history --datadir <your dir>" 2) restart geth with "--history.chain postmerge"

Thank you Farcaster for spreading the word, and special thanks to the Telegram fairy who got me unblocked 🙏❤️ Today I have another mission I need help with :) I would like to buy the @justindrake Twitter handle. I'm willing to spend $10K on it—$5K to the owner, plus a $5K bounty to a coordinator who pulls off a trade. The owner barely uses the account. Coincidentally, he's in crypto and participated in NFTs and airdrops. A bit of sleuthing allowed me to locate him. I've tried messaging through a couple avenues but so far failed to reach him. To avoid several people reaching out to the owner I'll only give this mission to one person. Please message me to get the job, briefly explaining why you think you could get it done. https://warpcast.com/justindrake/0xc008d37c

I have a favour to ask. My Telegram account has been partially restricted for weeks. I can't create groups or send DMs unless it's a reply. This is significantly affecting my coordination work. Radio silence from Telegram support—tried all channels I could find. For context I got restricted after creating a dozen or so groups titled "[zkVM vendor] + ethproofs.org". I'm guessing putting a link in the group names was the big mistake. If someone could help me get in touch with a Telegram insider I'd be extremely grateful :)

That's exactly right :) Based sequencing is when the base layer (i.e. L1 proposers) sequence L2 blocks. Based sequencing is the most credibly neutral (shared) sequencer and allows for synchronous composability between the L1 and L2s.

I greatly enjoyed this episode with the new Bitcoin Suisse podcast. We touched on many topics related to ETH the asset and economics more broadly. https://youtu.be/lrFgjOc_Gkw

A new book on hash-based SNARKs is out! snargsbook.org The book is a comprehensive treatment of the foundations of hash-based SNARKs. Definitions, theorem statements and proofs are rigorously covered from first scratch. A monumental effort by Ale Chiesa and Eylon Yogev—the fundamentals have never been stronger :)

In this thread I'm going to break down a potential Ethereum upgrade called Execution Tickets, originally presented by @justindrake and formalized in a research post by @mikeneuder.eth. It shift's validators roles and provides a lot of benefits to the protocol 🧵 0/15

BitVM gives 1-of-whitelist optimistic rollups on Bitcoin with 2-way BTC bridges. Defi and restaking can be replicated with BTC. Imagine: * BitDA like EigenDA, boosting DA past 4MB/10min * BitFG like FFG, boosting security past PoW Wait, it's all about monetary premium? Always has been. 🌎👨‍🚀🔫👨‍🚀
