If we want things to change, it's 100% necessary to politicize the senseless murder of Iryna Zarutska because it was politics that allowed a savage monster with 14 priors to be free on the streets to kill her.
I've always wanted to build something great. It's why I became a programmer.
When @renprotocol was abandoned and left for dead, and the community refused to let it die, we had to figure out what to do for v2. We had to decide whether to make incremental tweaks to an unsustainable v1, or risk it all to build something new — without knowing what it would even be but hoping we'd come up with something.
We decided to go for something new. It felt like jumping off a cliff and trying to build a plane on the way down, because we'd inherited the remnants of a bankruptcy and broken community without a product.
Quietly and relentlessly, all day, every day, we did the work. When we weren't heard from in public, we were researching, tinkering, experimenting, and getting feedback from other projects. After enough time, we came up with something that we became obsessed with. It's great, it's uniquely Ren, and it's our baby.
I can't think of anything more fulfilling than to build something of your own with a great team, share it with an open community of people and users from all around the world, and help grow it into an essential piece of the global financial infrastructure.
That's what motivates me.
Ren v2 is coming.
We are heads down on it with a team of seven chads and are confident as ever that it will have a more outsized and sustainable impact on DeFi than Ren v1.
We not only intend to address the more obvious protocol design and governance lessons that our community learned through Ren v1, but also some key constraints that we consider to be existential bottlenecks to the wider ecosystem.
We are hoping to be out of stealth soon and can't wait to share everything about what we've been up to.
The road has been long and bumpy, but Ren's brightest days are ahead.
🧵MegaETH : The Next Leap in Blockchain Performance
1/ Introduction to MegaETH :
MegaETH aims to redefine blockchain scalability by focusing on reducing block times to unprecedented lows, ranging from 1 second to as minimal as 1ms, pushing the boundaries of what's currently possible in blockchain technology.
2/ Technological Edge :
The core of MegaETH's innovation lies in its approach to node specialization. Each node type is tailored for specific roles, enhancing both the hardware and functionality, leading to high-performance blockchain environments.
3/ Ethereum Alignment :
MegaETH isn't just another blockchain; it's deeply aligned with Ethereum's ecosystem. By settling on Ethereum as the most decentralized settlement layer, MegaETH builds an execution environment that's both performant and Ethereum-compatible.
4/ Performance Benchmarks :
Recent benchmarks on Ethereum's Reth client node have been pivotal. These analyses help in identifying bottlenecks and optimizing node performance, which is crucial for MegaETH's ambition to scale Ethereum's capabilities.
5/ Real-Time State Synchronization :
One of the unsung challenges in high-performance blockchains is state synchronization. MegaETH's approach, discussed in threads around the web, focuses on efficient real-time synchronization, which could potentially revolutionize how blockchains operate.
6/ Expanding Ecosystem :
The ecosystem of MegaETH is rapidly expanding with new projects like Biomes, Cap, Euphoria, Funes World, and GTE being introduced. This growth signifies a vibrant community and ecosystem development, aiming to leverage MegaETH's capabilities for diverse applications.
7/ Community and Developer Engagement :
Engagement from both the community and developers has been strong. Discussions on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) highlight the enthusiasm for MegaETH's potential to scale Ethereum while maintaining its core values of decentralization and security.
8/ Future Outlook :
With ongoing research and development, MegaETH continues to be at the forefront of blockchain technology. The community looks forward to more updates, especially concerning its integration with Ethereum and the broader impact on DeFi, NFTs, and other blockchain applications.

@itspublu Ren V2 has been developed by Ren Foundation (independent of Alameda and previous team) for more than a year now. Will be launched on MegaEth. So, first $ren to 10 cents and then 🚀
It's been CONFIRMED that RUSSIA sent 67 bomb threats to Swing State Blue districts during the election. THAT IS ENOUGH TO INVALIDATE IT, even if we can't PROVE that it had an effect on the outcome. IT'S INTERFERENCE WITH AN ELECTION BY A FOREIGN ADVERSARY. Demand NEW ELECTION!
Elections have consequences. The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.
