Have been following reactions to what I said about L2s about 1.5 days ago. One important thing that I believe is: "make yet another EVM chain and add an optimistic bridge to Ethereum with a 1 week delay" is to infra what forking Compound is to governance - something we've done far too much for far too long, because we got comfortable, and which has sapped our imagination and put us in a dead end. If you make an EVM chain *without* an optimistic bridge to Ethereum (aka an alt L1), that's even worse. We don't friggin need more copypasta EVM chains, and we definitely don't need even more L1s. L1 is scaling and is going to bring lots of EVM blockspace - not infinite (AIs in particular will need both more blockspace and lower latency than even a greatly scaled L1 can offer), but lots. Build something that brings something new to the table. I gave a few examples: privacy, app-specific efficiency, ultra-low latency, but my list is surely very incomplete. A second important thing that I believe is: regarding "connection to Ethereum", vibes need to match substance. I personally am a fan of many of the things that can be called "app chains". For example I think there's a large chance that the optimal architecture for prediction markets is something like: the market gets issued and resolved on L1, user accounts are on L1, but trading happens on some based rollup or other L2-like system, where the execution reads the L1 to verify signatures and markets. I like architectures where deep connection to L1 is first-class, and not an afterthought ("we're pretty much a separate chain, but oh yeah, we have a bridge, and ok fine let's put 1-2 devs to get it to stage 1 so the l2beat people will put a green checkmark on it so vitalik likes us"). The other extreme of "app chain", eg. the version where you convince some government registry, or social media platform, or gaming thing, to start putting merkle roots of its database, with STARKs that prove every update was authorized and signed and executed according to a pre-committed algorithm, onchain, is also reasonable - this is what makes the most sense to me in terms of "institutional L2s". It's obviously not Ethereum, not credibly neutral and not trustless - the operator can always just choose to say "we're switching to a different version with different rules now". But it would enable verifiable algorithmic transparency, a property that many of us would love to see in government, social media algorithms or wherever else, and it may enable economic activity that would otherwise not be possible. I think if you're the first thing, it's valid and great to call yourself an Ethereum application - it can't survive without Ethereum even technologically, it maximizes interoperability and composability with other Ethereum applications. If you're the second thing, then you're not Ethereum, but you are (i) bringing humanity more algorithmic transparency and trust minimization, so you're pursuing a similar vision, and (ii) depending on details probably synergistic with Ethereum. So you should just say those things directly! Basically: 1. Do something that brings something actually new to the table. 2. Vibes should match substance - the degree of connection to Ethereum in your public image should reflect the degree of connection to Ethereum that your thing has in reality.

Terrible shame. Proud that the Tezos ecosystem has and continues to push for real NFTs: self-custody, content based linking, no multisig control. What's the point otherwise?

Nifty Gateway is shutting down, and theyโ€™re negligently destroying millions of dollars of NFTs One of the first NFT marketplaces before OpenSea, their ethos was to simply copy traditional auction houses. Centralized custodial wallets, credit cards over crypto, web2 servers instead of blockchain infra. Then when the โ€˜21 NFT bubble hit, they switched from a crypto-minimized calm art site to lavish hyped celeb drops - Beeple, Pak, Fewocious. These leading drops were visually interesting, but most notoriety value came from crypto-adjacency. Pak an outright rug, Beeple polarizing, and Fewocious a mental mess. Despite crypto being the value driver and value premium for the platform, Nifty never tried to do anything crypto-related. All NFTs were minted on a centralized single contract that mixed together different pieces, different artists all in one messy blob. Images and descriptions and other metadata never came onchain (like cryptopunks), or even to decentralized storage (like ipfs or arweave). They just threw it in fickle cloud storage on low-quality web2 backends. Hundreds of millions of dollars of volume, and Nifty never bothered to write a single decentralized smart contract. Fast-forward five years. Itโ€™s a crypto winter, fake acquisitions of failing startups left and right. Nifty announces a full platform shutdown, effective one month later. โ€œWithdraw your NFTs before itโ€™s too late.โ€ Theyโ€™re planning to delete your wallets, wipe their storage, and ultimately delete whatever fake loose blockchain links ever existed from web2 NFTs to the real art. Nifty couldnโ€™t be bothered to harden or decentralize the infra over many years, and now unwilling to even offer batch migration tooling for their fake crypto platform. Every art that ever touched Nifty will receive a steep valuation discount because of how poorly they stewarded the platform. Even competitors like OpenSea made huge advances like Seaport to decentralized crypto tech. For Nifty, itโ€™s not even zero contribution - just a big fat minus sign. Goodbye and good riddance
