@corcoranwill You keep on upgrading ETH. We keep on funding biotech. We got you covered. We first started in october last year, and keep on grinding. 58ETH to Kanro Multisig.

For over 6 months now we’ve been extremely supportive on your philanthropic goals. Through the same multisig wallet you published in 2023 which you started Kanro, we’ve already contributed on almost 58 ETH (close to the amount you donated to Animal Welfare). We are onboard on your cause, and expect to do more. You may check the contributions on our website tracker. All through internal transactions in Kanro Multisig.

TBull @TBullOnTRX is Tron’s UTYA. Dig out this tweet by end of 2026. Exact same narrative connection to the source chain. Exact bottoming before hype. TBull IS Tron.

Close to 58ETH milestone. Kanro has been steady and strong. Cases such as Hanta Virus trend just remind us on how important our mission is. We first started from Covid pandemics, which we understood how much we need a global and coordinated action on global health. Kanro can help. We got you @VitalikButerin . Last tx proof: etherscan.io/tx/0xb8017db96…

Tik Tok, Tik Tok. Meme themed projects going right and left, 1 day lifespan. Kanro Fund has been on of the most steady and bullish projects for months now. Solid floor and community around the same perspective: Building a fund to help @VitalikButerin in his mission on funding open-source biotech projects. So far, close to 58ETH already donated. No airdropped tokens to sell and claim 'Oh, vitalik sold this'. We go straight and strong. Name a project on higher contributions then ours. 100k ish feels so undervalued to what we have built so far. And we plan to continue.

There is some buzz around @VitalikButerin selling Asteroid tokens around the timeline. Vitalik noticeably sell those to fund his phylanthropic, really often, Kanro related. Don’t bother about the buzz. We got you covered.

History is made in silent moves over time. It's about building something. We started 630 txs ago, and we'll keep on doing. @VitalikButerin will notice.

@Kanrofundoneth @VitalikButerin Kanro mode

Another milestone just hit. 57ETH in donations to Kanro's multisig wallet. x.com/VitalikButerin… The meta around 'funding' tokens has been building up. We've been building consistently for months now. Not wrong, just early. 57 ETH. Next stop. 67 if you know what I mean.

@Kanrofundoneth @VitalikButerin Kanro krime season coming

etherscan.io/tx/0xa31e90db6… @VitalikButerin another $370 was just donated to Kanro wallet. Just a penny out of almost 57ETH we already donated to Kanro multisig wallet. We keep on track.

@Kanrofundoneth @VitalikButerin Kanro krime soon.

$ETH season starting to be cooked back. Kanro goals remain the same! Over 56ETH already donated. Just extra 450$ pinged to @VitalikButerin Kanro Fund's wallet. It's not a matter of "if", but "when". Stay close.

@VitalikButerin @robbensinger I may help you here from your content

Damn man, been missing a lot your limo.vitalik articles. Was there an expectation around a d/acc specific post and a Kanro multisig donation? Yes. But I’m glad you are back at writing there. Saw a random Ethereum is good and a Moodeng hints. Would be nice to see some owls running over.

Gm fam! 6 months went by, and we are still grinding and pushing forward. Each day our narrative gets stronger and sharper. Sometimes @VitalikButerin gets a bit stubborn, but we know he knows hehe. The goal is kept the same. Help funding Open Source biotech research.

People around the world interested in funding Open Source biotech. They want to fund it, but do not rely on “white collar” events, or handshakes from what they do. They just want a way to fund those. So Alice buys 10 ETH worth of Kanro tokens. Through time, as Kanro Fund reaches 74,50 mi Mcap, she sells 10% of her bag. It auto triggers a function on a contract, which gathers a small balance on trades made through Kanro Fund token. He “contribution” get’s in a temporary pool which will directly transfer funds to Kanro Multisig wallet. People won’t see “Alice contributed to @VitalikButerin ‘s biotech project”. People will see Kanro Fund has been donating steadily to Open Source biotech, such as open source Vaccines, which Vitalik posted two days ago. Alice is happy cause she helped, she had fun. Kanro Fund is happy cause it’s filling it’s purpose. Vitalik happy cause his projects are getting more traction than ever. Humanity happy cause it’ll seize new technologies funded by crypto bros.

For you degens out there, @owocki is a co-founder of one of the most successfull DAO models we ever made till here. I think this is a cool approach from him in this specific matter to Ethereum, which he drops out of the philosophical side of it and brings to reality. Owocki works mostly around “funding”, and he is a great one to talk about liquidity providers and market behaviour that way. While some of us sit on the chair of understanding ETH already won, he connects us in reality. Ethereum is surely thriving in tech development, the one most attached to core crypto values, but we SHOULD focus on UX. I’ve been saying repeatedly how @VitalikButerin and @ethereumfndn are inviting devs to build on ethereum, but sometimes we do need a different approach. Simpler. To connect people. Also something to consider: Ethereum was built on cryptography roots, mostly from people on their 30-50 yo. Generations are moving faster, the economical value from 20-30s is growing strong, as they tend to be the new devs in the next 5-10 years, and also the new financial market. We got to connect to them. We can’t stand only on the philosophical side of things. Tiktoks last 30s for a reason. Fast, simple, direct (also maintaining ETH core values, but imbued). Solana managed to suck tons of liquidity, even being a slopier tech, shady deals etc. But simpler, faster. Vitalik is surely a great leader and a really valuable asset to ethereum. But we also got to recognize we can’t wait from him to solve it all. Just think about it. “Ethereum is good” meme came out of people mogging VB from being too philosophical hehe. PS: Kanro is good

@Kanrofundoneth @VitalikButerin Kanro is good

Been thinking a lot lately on how Ethereum roadmap looks much clearer now than it was before, and if it also changed for you guys on Ethereum Foundation. I see not only the goals set and reached, but also the leadership position where it looks clear. At the same time, it feels like Ethereum goals and ecossystem is much more “impersonal” than they were before, but made by people who agree on what Ethereum should deliver. Like, I see you being one of the main leaderships on Ethereum, but I also see it not going along your personal preferences sometimes, and it feels like you are okay with it, since you understand Ethereum is not for you, but built in a way you can build things for you. And this year I felt the same message, as you guys are being more invitive. Ethereum is not made for me, but it assures a specific infrastructure standing on specific principles which I can build my stuff if I’m okay with it. For example, I’m into crowdfunding and biotech. Ethereum gives me the ecossystem which I can do so. Ethereum is not made for me, so I can build crowdfundings. Anyhow, it’s been like 6 months I feel like you guys are being closer and I appreciate that. Thanks VB and @ethereumfndn

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 sanctuary technology, to preserve technological self-sovereignty, to enable cooperation without coercion, domination or rugpulling, and to provide an escape hatch, to ensure that no single person, organization or ideology's victory in cyberspace can be total. The Ethereum Foundation is a steward of Ethereum - the original steward, and today, the steward specifically dedicated to preserving and expanding the above aspects of Ethereum. This means a heavy emphasis on CROPS (censorship and capture resistance, open source, privacy, security), both at the protocol layer, and at the access layer, user-facing applications and tools that we create or contribute to. There are things that we do in Ethereum because we believe that they are valuable for the underlying goals that we have for Ethereum. There are things that we do not do because from the perspective of our values we find them uninteresting (or worse, harmful). But there are also things that we do not do because while they are useful, they are not our role. At the Ethereum protocol layer, we focus on decentralization, verifiability, inclusion guarantees, protocol liveness, security and privacy first and foremost. We also value capabilities (eg. L1 scale, account abstraction, perhaps some forms of in-protocol aggregation), particularly because improvements in these capabilities better enable users to properly benefit from Ethereum's CROPS properties and displace the need for higher-layer intermediaries that might weaken the extent to which Ethereum's properties carry over into the full stack. We also believe that the Ethereum protocol must strive to pass the walkaway test. "We do X to specialize to serve the use cases of today, if more use cases appear later, we will continue to keep adding more EIPs for them later" is logic fit for many other blockchains whose names you hear often on this forum, but we do not believe it is logic fit for a decentralization-first blockchain like Ethereum. At the application layer, we focus on making "the zero option" - user experience that goes hard on ensuring security and privacy, avoiding dependence on intermediaries, and respecting the user's agency - as high quality as possible. We see this as complementary to work in the Ethereum ecosystem that "goes broad", starting from the world that it exists, and brings it onchain and improves its properties over time. Such work has its natural home outside the EF. We intend to be supportive of such efforts. We believe that the two are complementary: tools that are developed within the EF can be adopted by anyone, including partially, and even partial adoption that improves people's security, privacy and agency is a good thing. But the form of user experience that is more heavily insistent on CROPS properties is where we want the EF to develop its center of expertise. This does not mean shrinking from the hard questions. We believe in a vision of self-sovereignty that protects users, and does not leave users in the cold to face environments where they lose their life savings if they make a mistake, and click "yes" on a confirmation screen by accident two seconds after. But such protection must be designed based on a philosophical baseline of empowering the user, not empowering centralized organizations that claim to act in the user's name. This quadrant of design space - caring about users' (including non-experts') well-being and safety, and yet insistent on doing this in a way compatible with their agency and freedom, is underserved (not just in crypto, but in the world). We wish to use Ethereum as a platform to build out and showcase this quadrant, and ideally work with others to expand its reach over time. This is also a new chapter in how we see our position in the world. We must see ourselves not just as the Ethereum community, but also as maintainers of the Ethereum tool within what you might call the CROPS community or the sanctuary tech community, or a dozen of other words that have for a long time been used by people with similar values to us but far outside Ethereum. This means open-mindedness to new conceptions of what things in the world are our natural allies. Ethereum is not the world. Ethereum is a specific object in the world that is here to have specific properties. The Ethereum Foundation is a specific organization within Ethereum - one steward, not the sole one. I encourage all to read the mandate in detail; it includes concrete examples of how we intend to deal with the challenges and nuances of these ideas. We are doubling down on Ethereum and are excited about its next chapter.
