The amount of ETH staked has been increasing continuously, reaching new record highs over the last year. This could have been concerning for the Ethereum community due to the growing number of active validators and the associated signature aggregation overhead if MaxEB had not been introduced to the network last year with Pectra. Thanks to MaxEB, validators are consolidating, helping the network maintain sufficient bandwidth for stability and enabling further scaling of blobs and gas limits.

For the first time in @LidoFinance's history, less than 90% of the protocol's TVL is controlled by Curated Operators. Community and Home stakers are quietly gaining share, making the protocol even more reliable, decentralized, and robust! Upwards only

Ethereum is "slow to finalize" they say, but in normal conditions in fact we are certain that blocks will be final even before the next block arrives! Expect ultra fast trustless deposits soon. fastconfirm.it

1/ stETH CAPO Misconfiguration Today, a misconfiguration on Aave's CAPO oracle caused wstETH E-Mode liquidations, resulting in a loss of 345 ETH. No bad debt was incurred, and all affected users will be fully reimbursed. More below.

1/ Introducing Chaos Vaults. AI-powered yield at enterprise scale. Available now on @Krakenfx DeFi Earn & @Krak.

I left paid work almost a year ago saying that only something spectacular would drag me out of retirement. Well, it happened - I am now with @ethereumfndn helping to shepherd fast finality to Mainnet. It's going to be quite the journey, but I am very excited! 🚀

Look at my crates. @infinex.

what's this

New year treat has arrived

Venus X, powered by Fluid. The most advanced money market and DEX on @BNBCHAIN with @VenusProtocol. Coming Q1 2026.

upgrade in progress . . . activating Fusaka @ epoch 411392 // 21:49:11 UTC

@fengtality @FabianoSolana You’d eat some decent amount of slippage if you do it manually

@FabianoSolana but can't you just withdraw from kamino and deposit on jupiter?

So let me get this straight: > You borrow on Kamino > You want to refinance on Jupiter Lend > You can't because Kamino blocked this Refinancing matters in open finance Not having it just ends up forcing users into worse rates so the protocol can earn more

Your product is so good that competitors feel the need to block it at the program level. @kamino is openly ignoring open-finance principles by stopping users from leaving their platform via @jup_lend refinancing, all while preaching ‘transparency.’ Peak 5/10 multisig power, able to upgrade the program whenever they want. What’s next, blocking users individually? At least their code includes a hall-of-fame mention to Jupiter lend, finally something superior in their codebase. ‘If you can’t win fairly, just change the rules, it’s easier.”

Congratulations to Ethereum. gwei is no longer a useful unit Say hello to its successor: kwei. Time to embrace it.

If we collectively decide to ship FOCIL, Ethereum will make history. It will become the first L1 to rely on a committee of proposers to deliver unmatched inclusion guarantees, making it the most reliable and credibly neutral place to transact onchain. With real-time zkVMs, the protocol can safely start scaling towards gigagas per second, letting sophisticated prover-builders go beast mode while keeping them in check and making it extremely difficult to arbitrarily censor public transactions. FOCIL also gives the protocol a clean foundation for the future of nodes, where validators can chose to specialize as includers, attesters, and execution proposers. This clean separation of roles protects consensus participants from MEV-related risks, and unlocks crucial issuance-curve changes . Institutions can trust that competitors can’t quietly bribe or pressure a handful of service providers to stop their transactions from landing onchain. For RWAs and global payments, FOCIL provides the reliability these systems depend on. Stablecoin issuers, tokenized assets, and remittance networks gain predictable inclusion across geographies and market conditions. L2s can shorten their withdrawal windows, offering smoother UX and stronger interoperability. That means faster exits, cheaper bridging, and lower costs for cross-chain swaps. At the same time, L2s can improve their forced-transaction mechanisms and minimize differences with L1 clients, reducing code complexity and maintenance. Everyday users buying ETH with stablecoins get the same protocol-level inclusion guarantees as large funds rebalancing their portfolios. Borrowers on Aave can rely on Ethereum to include their transactions when it matters most, without fearing someone can block them from topping up collateral to avoid liquidation. No one can slow down your crypto payment at a local café, your donation to a cause you deeply care about, or your vote on how your favorite DAO spends its treasury because of who you are or where you live. Everyone shares equal, protocol-level access to Ethereum blockspace. FOCIL lets Ethereum return to its core strength: credible neutrality secured by protocol rules, not trust. Job is not done. FOCIL for Glamsterdam.
