i knew some coffee connoisseur was gonna have an issue with this! i don't actually care about the coffee as much as i do the hot beverage though. the microwaving will continue until the technology improves

90% of the time i open the microwave in my house, there's a forgotten cup of coffee in there even after returning from a 2-week trip i think i need one of those fancy self-warming cups

Hi @coinbase & @lidofinance ! Do you have a timeline to consolidate keys from your validator set to help ease the Ethereum network’s messaging load?

i especially liked the part where i asked "why do you need a photo of me on file?" and he answered completely sincerely, "how can we tell who you are otherwise?" while looking me dead in the eye with my passport in his hand

TSA yesterday: it's totally optional to take a photo and we delete it as soon as you go through Also TSA: You're opting out? Okay, sec. Wait, you always opt out - you don't have a photo on file. We have to call a supervisor. Everybody behind me: *fuck this girl* Totally optional. Photo deleted immediately. Yep

With compounding validators now officially online on Mainnet, there are some good pros into consolidating your validators if you have many of them or if you want to actively manage your execution rewards. See https://www.attestant.io/posts/exploring-validator-compounding/

I just consolidated my validators: reduced their count by over 50% to help lower message load on the network. Surprisingly simple to do. Have you done your part? Looking at you, @lidofinance , @coinbase , and all the big players. 👀
