Another round of paying it forward on @Giveth πŸ’– Coinspect and eth.limo both support /walletbeat's mission. One with data, the other with infrastructure. Both critical, and thus both supported back.

TL;DR: Wallet Security Ranking is currently the only open, systematic way to evaluate wallet quality starting with what matters most: security. Open, transparent, objective, reproducible, with a UI people actually want to use. Support us in Giveth QF @thedaofund πŸ™Œ

I am happy to report that Qwen3.6 27B (dense) fixes all of this. I am very grateful it exists.
Still disappointed at the state of local coding agents. Paid a pretty penny for sufficient hardware to run qwen3.5:122b @ q4, qwen3.5:35b @ q8, and qwen3-coder:30b @ q8. Neither of them can successfully do what should be a completely mechanical TypeScript refactor. Rant below.

The best time to integrate trustless name resolution in web browsers was in 2018 The next best time was yesterday The next best time... is now.

⚠️ The compromise of the @eth_limo domain name means you should not use the .eth.limo gateway for the time being. Alternate link using Cloudflare gateway: https://t.co/KPG5JOy2w6 Long-term fix: Ask your browser to support ENS and IPFS in order to remove the need for gateways!

The EFF is the one charity I've donated the most to over the course of my life. I stopped donating after their actions were no longer defensible under their own founding principles. (Yes, I am of course referring to the Roman Storm case here.) Sad to see this trend continue further.
Now, for my two wei/cents: Multiple things can be true at the same time. Of course, I want decentralized social to win. This was true before Elon took over Twitter. None of my arguments have changed: social media is too important for one person to be running the digital town square. Your username is never yours, and ac

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at https://t.co/BKnwCDIp75

Had my first scammer-claiming-to-be-journalist attempt experience. The person pretended to be writing an article on Walletbeat. Tried to prove their identity by sending an email from the news organization's domain, but of course the DKIM signature was invalid Stay vigilant and watch your email headers out there 🫑

@0xmattmatt and I out here getting SVGs to fit within mainnet gas limits. Fun challenge involving converting fonts to paths, scaling coordinates to the optimal power of 10 to reduce bytes wasted just to the "." character in floating-point values, buncha SVGO optimizations, and LibZip.flzCompress+onchain decompression.

That's a wrap! 🌸 This 1TS Security Benchmark discussion generated many new criteria around wallet security. Grateful to all who contributed, including experts like @pcaversaccio and Hester Bruikman. Now it's time to ship them in Walletbeat 🫑 More on how we will do that below.
Last call for discussion on the wallet security benchmark: https://github.com/walletbeat/walletbeat/discussions/407 Planning to start incorporating these into Walletbeat's methodology at the end of this week. Walletbeat's security methodology will never be set in stone, but does get harder to change over time, so spe

Also worth pointing out in the EF mandate: this little blurb from the accompanying blog post. Just reading the tea leaves here, perhaps it hints at addressing crypto's reputational problem, something that I've long wished for the EF to do. Crypto can do so much good for the Internet and for world, but its reputationa...

The artwork in this EF mandate PDF is really something. It captures the Ethereum "infinite garden" vibes while also blending it with a computer-y/cypherpunk tones. Absolutely immaculate vibes. Great job @shiro57102 :)

This is the new EF Mandate. For many of you, the contents should be no surprise, and a clarification along the lines that we have been going and thinking for the past few months. But the clarification is nevertheless worth making. Ethereum is a unique object and has a unique role in the world. Its role is to be a san
