💸 Today I invested in a new thing:
Ethereum is essentially a public spreadsheet with every transaction being visible for everyone forever
But that makes it impossible to use for banks because it's not private. Imagine you buy something and everyone in the entire world can see it? That'd be never be accepted
So my friend @oskarth has been working on a new thing called @eth_systems that lets banks use Ethereum but while keeping transactions private
Before this he was working for 10 years on stuff like zk-SNARK (math tricks that let you prove something is true without revealing the details) and advising the Ethereum Foundation, he's the most high IQ person I know, so when he started something that's for-profit (after lots of non-profit work) I asked to invest immediately
YC always taught me to invest in people not companies, the companies (and product) can change (and should) and it can pivot into lots of other things, but if you trust the person you can estimate a higher likelihood of it (and your investment) working out
If you like to see what they will make, follow @eth_systems 😊😊😊

Yesterday was my last day at the Ethereum Foundation. Today we are launching EthSystems. We build confidential systems for institutional Ethereum. I've spent close to a decade building privacy infrastructure in crypto: p2p messaging at @ethstatus, developing Waku protocols at Vac (both now part of @logos_network), mobile proving tooling with @zkmopro, teaching zero-knowledge proofs with my zkintro primer, and advising @ethereumfndn on privacy and access layer strategy. Most of that was aimed at individuals. The past year at EF's Institutional Privacy Task Force (IPTF) we've been looking at privacy for institutions. On the surface this might seem different, but there are a lot of similarities. There's also a very strong market need for it, and the timing is right. I've written in the past about the tension and overlap between cypherpunks and institutions. Twitter is not exactly the best medium for nuance, but right now we are at a sensitive point in time: the defaults for the next generation of financial infrastructure are being set, with or without us. I believe we need cypherpunks in the room when that happens. Excited to start @eth_systems together with my co-founder @motypes and @_rymnc as part of the founding team. See quoted announcement thread for more details. x.com/eth_systems/st…

Dear Ethereum,
I would happily sacrifice some decentralization to see this rate of shipping and solving real problems that users have.
Best,

Introducing Receive Policies On most blockchains, any token can be sent to any account: There's no easy way to restrict who can send you assets or refuse an unwanted token. Receive policies bring these features to Tempo, enforced by the protocol.

Today we're launching EthSystems.
We build confidential systems for institutional Ethereum.
Institutions want to use Ethereum, but one of the biggest problems is the lack of built-in, modular privacy tools.
We were the Ethereum Foundation's Institutional Privacy Task Force (IPTF) for the past year. We had hundreds of conversations with central banks, regulators, tier-one banks, and asset managers, shipping open source work the whole time.
Wall Street has found crypto as an asset class, but not yet as commercial infrastructure. Institutions want to run real flows on Ethereum: stablecoins, tokenized assets, settlement. These are businesses with billions of dollars on the line, and no bank will operate in full public view. On a public ledger, confidentiality is the hard part: each party to a transaction should see what it has a right to see, and nothing more.
We have a year of proof of work: private bonds, confidential stablecoin transfers, private settlement across chains, the Ethereum Privacy Map, and more. All with protocol specs and security properties, at our website.
We've spent a decade working on privacy in crypto. We know there's no silver bullet. Different use cases need different systems, each designed, specified, and hardened properly, and someone has to do that work. That's why EthSystems exists.
We're an independent, for-profit company, backed by long-term Ethereum-aligned investors. This is a decade-long transition, and we aren't going anywhere.
If you're an institution that wants to build on Ethereum, talk to us. We're hiring: BD in New York, protocol engineers, ops: join@ethsystems.org

@sodofi_ @MTSlive @liangsays Perfect fit congrats!!!
Feel free to put an Ethereum sticker on your cohost laptop ;)

career update:
i’ve joined @MTSlive as a full time host!
after spending the last few weeks guest hosting, i knew this was a team i wanted to be part of.
it’s a rare moment for technology and MTS is at the frontier of telling its story.
grateful to work alongside @liangsays @ChrisJBakke @theojaffee @schisofrenia @netcapgirl @gbrl_dick @knowerofmarkets @komalravsharma and more. truly some of the most dedicated, talented people i've ever met.
beyond excited to be part of this team and for all that’s to come
ps. we're already live! come watch my first day hosting

8% of that flows into the @arbitrum DAO treasury.
Last year, the DAO's income was ~$25M.
If the above materializes, the DAO's income is set to increase by 32% 🤯
Obviously not as straightforward, but still cool

Annualizers, get ready: Robinhood Chain daily fees hit a new high of $300,000. Sustained for a year, that's a $100M revenue stream for Robinhood. Main catalyst comes from the increase in the average gas fee, it jumped 4x versus the prior day. Even so, it's still trivial at $0.034. Data from @EntropyAdvisors

a lot of this can be fixed at the wallet level

4.5 yrs ago, the founder of Signal argued Ethereum was failing b/c users still relied on trusted intermediaries almost every step of the way Was he right? I revisit Moxie's critique, Vitalik's response, and why the Ethereum Foundation's new Access Layer exists New post 👇

Jason is releasing a few great pieces on “what is this new EF Access Layer thing”. The goal is to help users and builders continue seeing a reason why a blockchain even needs to exist - by making sure that obfuscation of everything doesn’t make crypto as a concept obsolete.

🇪🇺 Chat Control has passed 😔 They can and will now legally scan any person's messages, emails and photos you send without a warrant The way they passed this law when the majority of the European Parliament was against it will shock you: They waited until most EP members were on holiday so only a few were present and then created an "urgent" vote for it to pass it through There's nothing democratic about any of it and big powerful forces are behind this that can manipulate the EU for whatever they want Democracy in Europe died a bit today 😔

Visited @anagenxyz's lab in NYC again this week
There's something really satisfying about seeing the actual lab behind the products. Hair loss affects millions of people, and it's cool watching ideas go from research to real products

Certora has formally verified Aave V4.
This process covered the Liquidity Hub and Spoke contracts, along with the underlying mathematical libraries.
The verification confirmed that the Solidity implementations of V4's contracts are correct according to Certora's formal rules.

Using a crypto wallet safely shouldn't require a 10-hour opsec course.
For most people, it still kind of does.
So I built this tool. Map your wallets, answer a few questions, get a security score out of 0-100. The score is nice. The point is seeing where your setup is weak.
