Why EPGi? Because an open, credibly neutral, public goods platform has tremendous advantages over building on corporate, insider or VC infrastructure (either L1 or L2!) EPGi is 100% community owned by the Ethereum and EPGi communities. Join EPGi here: lumenaria.github.io/publictestprog…

Samara Cohen of @BlackRock: The winners in the next 12 months will have three big characteristics: 1) Leaning into open architecture 2) Putting resilience, volatility mechanisms, and safeguards at front of strategy 3) Putting investor experience at the center

big personal news: first off, Ethereum is dead second, i am now Special Situations at @SolanaFndn. my mandate is mega deals that will drive max value why solana? > the most engaged userbase in crypto with the highest take rate per volume (more than hype coinbase binance) > foundation is very lean and full of killers > other chains dont need me. ethereum is fucked (stuck in communism) and hype’s perp game is mature. solana is perfect for me to have fun and get shit done what will i do at solana: > bring 10B TVL to solana i’ve brokered 1-2B before and wanna up my game. if you are a large TVL provider, we have super scalable fixed yield products at 7-8% in a tradfi setup dm me > help grow RWA perps on solana hype done a great job with oil, gold, nasdaq perps and we will take it further if you are a serious crypto/tradfi market maker in rwa, we have the distribution and open to deals dm me what motivates me personally: first off, I am doing this for glory. I want to come in and be instrumental in growing trading activity and onchain tvl. second, I want to be relevant again. I miss pissing people off while being unavoidable. its fun thirdly, learn how to acquire trading distribution. almost no one in crypto knows how to do but thats where billion usd opportunities lie and they belong on solana.

LIVE NOW - Ethereum’s Quantum Plan Before Q-Day Quantum is no longer a distant thought experiment. @drakefjustin joins Bankless to unpack: - when Q-Day could actually arriv,e - why Bitcoin and Ethereum face very different quantum risks, - what Ethereum’s post-quantum roadmap looks like, - why this upgrade could be bigger than the Merge, - and how quantum could become Ethereum’s chance to lead. --- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 When is Q-Day? 5:35 The moment quantum becomes crypto-relevant 10:11 How many qubits does it take to break crypto? 16:22 What a real Bitcoin quantum attack would look like 20:19 How much Bitcoin is actually vulnerable? 26:26 Burn, freeze, or salvage? Bitcoin’s impossible choice 35:06 Proof of seed phrase and Bitcoin’s post-quantum bottleneck 41:02 Ethereum’s exposure: smaller, but not zero 45:43 Ethereum’s tougher roadmap: three layers, three upgrades 50:29 The execution-layer plan: replace ECDSA without killing throughput 57:56 Post-quantum, post-AI cryptography 1:03:36 BLS, KZG, LeanVM, and the rest of the stack 1:06:42 Is this bigger than the Merge? 1:17:21 If Bitcoin stumbles, does all crypto stumble too? 1:19:35 “Quantum is not a challenge—it’s an opportunity” 1:21:27 AI, quantum, crypto and the 2032 convergence 1:28:04 Harvest now, decrypt later 1:30:09 Defensive accelerationism and Ethereum’s role 1:39:10 Stoicism, P-doom, and why he keeps building

"Large players will never agree to build on another large player’s infrastructure, which is why Ethereum is the only option." Robbie asks ZK inventor Alex (@gluk64) how much credence he gives companies building their own L1s. Do JP Morgan, NYSE, and Circle all want to operate on their own networks, or will Ethereum become the neutral infrastructure that everyone can agree on?

or in other words, about *one-fourth* of all uniswap protocol volume comes from L2s with @arbitrum ($460B) and @base ($303B) leading the way
