you can outsource your thinking but you cannot outsource your understanding

@r0ktech 😂😂😂

Rate my sorting algorithm 😎

@mhxalz @shahh We are bullish on Aztec.

@shahh Bro aztec was just listing

We are in the house! Talking tokenization of assets.

This is quite an impressive experiment. Vibe-coding the entire 2030 roadmap within weeks. Obviously such a thing built in two weeks without even having the EIPs has massive caveats: almost certainly lots of critical bugs, and probably in some cases "stub" versions of a thing where the AI did not even try making the full version. But six months ago, even this was far outside the realm of possibility, and what matters is where the trend is going. AI is massively accelerating coding (yesterday, I tried agentic-coding an equivalent of my blog software, and finished within an hour, and that was using gpt-oss:20b running on my laptop (!!!!), kimi-2.5 would have probably just one-shotted it). But probably, the right way to use it, is to take half the gains from AI in speed, and half the gains in security: generate more test-cases, formally verify everything, make more multi-implementations of things. A collaborator of the @leanethereum effort managed to AI-code a machine-verifiable proof of one of the most complex theorems that STARKs rely on for security. A core tenet of @leanethereum is to formally verify everything, and AI is greatly accelerating our ability to do that. Aside from formal verification, simply being able to generate a much larger body of test cases is also important. Do not assume that you'll be able to put in a single prompt and get a highly-secure version out anytime soon; there WILL be lots of wrestling with bugs and inconsistencies between implementations. But even that wrestling can happen 5x faster and 10x more thoroughly. People should be open to the possibility (not certainty! possibility) that the Ethereum roadmap will finish much faster than people expect, at a much higher standard of security than people expect. On the security side, I personally am excited about the possibility that bug-free code, long considered an idealistic delusion, will finally become first possible and then a basic expectation. If we care about trustlessness, this is a necessary piece of the puzzle. Total security is impossible because ultimately total security means exact correspondence between lines of code and contents of your mind, which is many terabytes (see firefly.social/post/x/2025653… ). But there are many specific cases, where specific security claims can be made and verified, that cut out >99% of the negative consequences that might come from the code being broken.

@andyyy 🥺😢

Rumor mill saying this is the last ETHDenver ever. Not sure if confirmed yet, but heard across multiple people.

Lido V3 is here...and stVaults are changing the game for Ethereum staking. We built a video series breaking down what they are, how to create them, and why they matter. Start here 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=O7BVUJ… Congrats to the team @LidoFinance on the launch!

@LidoFinance Awesome!!

New banner, who likes it?

Long Island Blockchain is seeking to become Lido stVaults Identified Node Operator. More about us here: research.lido.fi/t/node-operato…

@shydev69 What are you using?

people still using docker to ship backends in 2026 😭 grow up it's not 2016 anymore. use better.

@MilkRoad We can help you earn those rewards!!

They now hold $12B worth of $ETH. 4 Million Ethereum staked today, at current network yields that level of ETH can generate $480M+ per year in rewards.

Happy New Year!! Let’s get building!!

@mikigraf @panditdhamdhere 😂😂😂

@panditdhamdhere I guess they’re just contract engineers then

I don't believe in smart contract Engineers who store their pk in .env files. Y'all ain't serious people.

@thedevchandra @0xNairolf Apps can still have a biz model. Gas costs can be sponsored using paymasters.

@0xNairolf No gas, so what's the builder incentive

imagine this: one website to access all apps on any chain one wallet, native to the site no gas, no bridges, no popups endgame?

@Shivfreespirit @0xNairolf Coinbase

@0xNairolf Who is builidng this?

@MerlijnTrader Makes sense. It will take forward thinking and some bold management to make this a reality… but it is happening for sure

TOM LEE JUST SAID THE QUIET PART OUT LOUD: JPMORGAN AND GOLDMAN COULD BE THE NEXT MAG 7. His thesis is brutal: AI + blockchain = fewer humans per dollar of revenue Margins explode Valuations rerate In plain English: Banks stop trading like sleepy value plays and start behaving like hyper-efficient tech platforms with balance sheets. What’s changing under the hood: - Back offices automated - Settlements moving on-chain - Balance sheets tokenized - Risk, payments, markets run on software, not people The market still prices JPM and GS like old-world lenders… while they’re quietly mutating into scale-on-code machines. When that gap closes: - Earnings surprise upside - Multiples expand 2-3x - They stop being “banks” - And start leading the next bull leg Everyone is hypnotized by the current Mag 7. Almost nobody is front-running the next ones. If AI and blockchain really rewire global finance… Don’t be shocked when JPM and GS stop being value traps and start trading like the new kings of capital. The rerate isn’t coming. It’s loading.

$31B flowed into BTC and ETH ETFs in 2025 with Ethereum gradually gaining share. Institutional demand for ETH exposure continues to build the case for professional validator operations. [theblock.co/post/383550](theblock.co/post/383550) #ETH
