@mert ummm @toly check up on mert

claude pass the rope

I will never financially recover from this

@nickshirleyy @onchainlurk @AntiFraudClub_ We also made you a $blackline token with fees for you to claim, No need to engage or endorse, Just happy to help out. Be Safe♥️ FcqtzUfg7p9EWuEgbEULAye3jE3yNX9iHugTo4w5pump

@onchainlurk @AntiFraudClub_ Appreciate the support I will collect the fees to continue the work/security but I have no plans to engage.

After last nights and the constant doxxing attempts and threats from people who want to attack me largely due to politicians and leftist hate filled rhetoric as I expose billion dollar fraud schemes stealing from taxpayers I’ve decided it’s time to raise money for security cost once again unfortunately You can donate here: blacklineguardianfund.com If you cannot donate no pressure whatsoever, please like and share this so it can get in the eyes of those that can. God bless, Nick

@mickeymantled @nickshirleyy orrrrrrrr he could just claim fees

@MathsGeeker @nickshirleyy Fuck outta here just go donate money on the site

@prestonjbyrne Got it — sounds like a substantial piece of work. Looking forward to reading the full proposal when it’s out 👍

@MathsGeeker We've thought about these issues and I think it'll be clear how we've addressed it when we publish the whole thing. It's a big proposal, and it changes a lot, but it's also designed to live within English law as it currently exists rather than bulldozing it out of existence.

The UK Free Speech Act 2026 - a model bill implementing my "UK Free Speech Act 2021" proposal - is very nearly done. Three drafters, 24 pages, 6,709 words, repeals 8 Acts of Parliament in their entirety and significant repeals of 7 more.

Solana Foundation's recent decisions make perfect sense once you start viewing them as a product company responding to market signals rather than a foundation stewarding public infrastructure

@prestonjbyrne Genuine question: how do you think something like this survives first contact with enforcement realities and judicial interpretation? A lot of “clean” speech frameworks look elegant on paper but get reshaped quickly by edge cases and institutional incentives. What parts of the bill are you most confident will hold their original intent? x.com/prestonjbyrne/…

The proposal is not a wholesale rewrite of UK law, like some proposals I've seen. It's pretty well-integrated to existing law and does most of its work via amendments rather than by broad constitutional sweeps.

You might be surprised how effective it is.

@serpinxbt Real question: how do you tell the difference early between “cool infra you personally want” and a problem other people will actually change behaviour for? Feels like a lot of great tools die in that gap. Curious what signals you look for before going all-in. x.com/serpinxbt/stat…

@chosta_eth it helps me trade with conviction too :)

I get ~40 DMs a day right now across multiple platforms ...I'm sick of missing stuff. so I made this, a central DM hub called Open Mercury that is meant to look/operate like a mail inbox combining TG, X, Discord & iMessage DMs it's OSS, runs 100% locally ↓

@hosseeb Isn’t part of the disagreement just different threat models? If you assume Ethereum’s biggest risk is losing neutrality and long-term credibility, manifesto-type coordination makes sense. If you assume the main risk is losing builders and economic gravity right now, then speed + institutional focus looks existential. Maybe the real question is: what failure mode is actually more irreversible for a protocol at this stage, reputational drift or competitive erosion? x.com/hosseeb/status…

I'm not strawmanning you. These are your words. See the screenshot. Anyway no more point in debating this. You believe this is a harmless manifesto that is a timely restatement of what everyone already knows about Ethereum's credo. I believe it's not a harmless credo. Communications always mean more than it says on the tin—it represents an attempted regression to 2024 Infinite Garden drivel. That needs to be rebuffed, lest the EF backslide. And with Tomasz out from the EF, there are a lot of people internal to the EF who are very comfortable with a backslide, under the sense that the job is done, Ethereum is on more solid footing now, so everything is OK and they can go back to this. I think they cannot go back to this. The BD, the entrepreneurship support, the competitive pressure that—let's just say it—Solana shook Ethereum awake with in 2024, is at risk of being ceded. Go look at crypto startup incubators. How many of them are building on Ethereum mainnet? That number should go up. The more the EF decides that their mantle is to recede into the ivory tower and write flowery manifestos before becoming irrelevant, the more it cedes the ground to the other blockchains who will compete more aggressively for that talent and those startups. We all agree Ethereum is sanctuary technology—but is it just sanctuary technology? If so, there is no reason it should be worth hundreds of billions. There's no reason to hold onto all of its TVL. There's no reason why we should all hold ETH if that's all it is. If it's more than that—if it's an economy—then its economic heft needs to be stewarded and defended. Ethereum was a startup too. It raised money in an ICO and was also funded by private investors. It is easy to forget that now, as Ethereum feels like an institution. But it's not. Ethereum is not like Bitcoin. There's no guarantee that it will still be relevant in 10 years if it does not fight for it. And the EF, being funded to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, abstains from that responsibility at its own peril.

I never said shipping faster makes Ethereum worse. I never said institutions don't matter. Please stop arguing against things I didn't say. I've been a harsh critic of EF decision making for years. I'm also a big supporter of Vitalik's vision and the EF's role. Both things are possible. Check my last talk at Devconnect. GTM teams, Etherealize, entrepreneur support, I support all of that. Companies and entrepreneurs building on top of a solid foundation is exactly the model. But the EF and Ethereum also need to stay credibly neutral. Those are not contradictory goals. On the internal EF fight: I know about it. I've been talking with core devs and EF members for a long time about it including Vitalik. I'm part of that debate and we, Lambda, have been pushing hard toward a more accelerationist, product oriented Ethereum. I want Ethereum to become more ruthless against competitors. But I also want it to stay a protocol, not become a company. That's precisely why the manifesto matters. It's a coordination mechanism that keeps thousands of independent contributors aligned on what Ethereum will and won't compromise on while the internal fight plays out. Haseeb, I respect you and what Dragonfly has built. But I think your takes on Ethereum tend toward the simplistic. Believing that a protocol can't deliver fast AND have the EF write manifestos is a good example of that. @leanEthereum is about to be stupidly fast, post quantum, ultra decentralized and easy to verify anywhere. That's happening because people like Vitalik and Justin Drake have a long term vision of what to build. I'm in favor of long term strategic vision and cypherpunk thinking in the same way I'm in favor of making Ethereum stronger in the US and within institutions. The difference between us is not that you want growth and I want purity. It's that I want growth of the protocol.

@tszzl Isn’t part of the SF mindset coming from the fact that a lot of builders do start by automating their own bottlenecks? At what point does that shift from “self-leverage” into automating other people out of roles — and does the culture just lag that transition? Curious where you think the line actually shows up. x.com/tszzl/status/9…

@muxxe_ totally wrong!

one of the most profound cultural differences between san francisco tech and elsewhere is that tech people see automation as axiomatically a good thing, and this idea predates ai by decades. most of a tech company is automating oneself out of a role by writing software or hiring

@AytuncYildizli Respect. Local-first multi-agent stacks feel harder upfront but the control over memory, latency, and cost compounds fast. Shared KG + episodic decay is also a nice way to avoid the usual “agent amnesia” problem without just brute-forcing bigger context windows. Curious how coordination behaves under load — small topologies tend to stay sane a lot longer than people expect. x.com/AytuncYildizli…

@ijaack94 Yup

8 AI agents sharing one memory system knowledge graph. episodic recall with decay. ColBERT reranking. lossless context so the window limit stops mattering. no framework. sqlite, chroma, and stubbornness. here is my blueprint.

@callebtc Security scars tend to turn users into builders pretty fast. “Don’t trust — verify” moving from protocol design into everyday apps is actually a healthy shift. Even if most users never check the proofs themselves, the option changes incentives. Also fair to say the line between philosophy and engineering keeps getting thinner in crypto. x.com/callebtc/statu…
