My weekend project got a little out of hand and now I've created a language for crafting EVM bytecode, complete with intuitive syntax, simpler stack management, and a built-in debugger. Ok, a lot out of hand! I'm proud to release SpecOps github.com/solidifylabs/s… Highlights🧵

Uhh, so @LouisVuitton are selling a $525 pendant that's just the @golang Gopher mascot? us.louisvuitton.com/eng-us/product… go.dev/blog/gopher

So disappointing to see the errors in @TASCHEN & @robertalice_21 OnNFTs representation of our work. Basic copy mistakes because we weren't provided a proof + we were omitted from the QR catalogue of dynamic works. For the price of the book it should be perfect!

3074 will be included in the next fork Imo, It gets EVM one step closer to good UX but 5 steps further from great UX and security. My unpopular opinion is that it’s a blow to AA on EVM. The biggest challenge for AA adoption on EVM was always that smart accounts are second class citizens so dapps would build for EOAs, the 1st class citizen. By improving EOAs you are reducing even more the incentives for dapps to build for smart accounts. It even adds more confusion, you’ll have EOA, smart EOA and smart accounts… A transition is possible with new EIPs in the future, I just hope this has been thought through and that wallet will be ready for 3074 to avoid a bloodbath of scams.

@alexisohanian You can take it a step further and prove that only inconsequential edits were made, like light or colour correction: @boneh/using-zk-proofs-to-fight-disinformation-17e7d57fe52f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@boneh/using-z…

It's my theory that the age of AI and the ascendence of blockchain technology are about to collide and reinforce each other 💥 Why? One is creating the indisputable need for the other. Right now, AI is creating a world that will make images infinitely available. We will see a glut of them all over the internet. We're already seeing that, in fact. So, imagine a world where you cannot trust a single JPG you see. You can't know if it's real or not, if it was taken by someone who says they took it, or if it depicts something real (we're already kind of seeing this, too.) Now, imagine if the device you use to CAPTURE all these images could also inscribe a way to verify an image's origin on an immutable global ledger. "Yes, Alexis Ohanian took this photo Tuesday night at 7:42 PM." Your device could sign an immutable global ledger—a blockchain!—digitally, confirming that this .JPG is what it claims to be. Suddenly, you have a great case for the blockchain that isn't speculative or particularly flashy – it's utility. I don't know what projects will win in this space specifically, but to me, it feels pretty clear that there is an emergent market need. If you're a President or a CEO – even if you're just a teenage kid—it's about to be very, very valuable to prove that an image is yours.

@BorisVagner Thanks. Sorry though, I don't do anything front-end that's not a terminal.

@divergencearran Nice! hey I dmed you regarding full stack dev work. my company is looking for one. Heard your amazing.

@0xfoobar @dcinvestor @itamarl @josephdelong AUTHs are short-lived; they expire as soon as the EOA's nonce changes, so users might become accustomed to signing them, opening them up to phishing. I think the ERC is a usability+security nightmare.

@divergencearran @dcinvestor @itamarl @josephdelong not really - i imagine there will be an incredibly basic "batch 3074" canonical endpoint that's been audited to the ends of the earth just like 4337, users can AUTH once and reuse that AUTH for everything else without needing sites to generate that intent for them

so EIP-3074 will: - allow for “bundling” of multiple transactions so you only have to sign from your wallet once - allow for apps to pay for gas on their users’ behalf - will be deployed on L1 and probably every EVM L2 what else to know @josephdelong (for non-devs)?

@0xfoobar @dcinvestor @itamarl @josephdelong …and I'm guessing you're not either, for the same reason.

@0xfoobar @dcinvestor @itamarl @josephdelong Fair point but that doesn't really address the nuance of @dcinvestor's question about "full permission asks" (i.e. it treats everything as a full-permission ask). Even though that's the most secure approach, it renders the ERC useless. IMO that's good because I'm not a fan…👇🏻

@dcinvestor @itamarl @josephdelong TL;DR no, they can't effectively warn users. By design, the signature only encodes "who" (contract address) is authorised, not what they can do. So a wallet would have to interpret all of the bytecode of the (possibly not-yet-deployed) contract to determine if it's safe.

@itamarl @josephdelong do you have a to delegate full permission though? can’t wallets warn the hell out of full permission asks?

@nftchance @shanefanx These are on Base twitter.com/divergencearra…

@divergencearran @shanefanx those are the only ones we want

What are the best NFT collections on Base? Looking to write an in-depth thread about the new NFT ecosystem

This is just incredible!

@0xkarasy Elon says I can't reply to your DMs 🤷🏻‍♂️ have you changed a setting?

@boredGenius I wrote a function to do exactly that: #L77" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/proofxyz/solgo…

given a past timestamp, what's the best way to get the block number whose timestamp is the closest?

Thank you @jaclynlavy for updating the listing with higher-res imagery :)

Just under 20 minutes to go in the @Sothebys auction for my artwork, Composite II. sothebys.com/en/buy/auction… Exapixel resolution, if printed at 250 dpi, pieces in the collection would be larger than Jamaica! Make sure to try the interactive explorer: proofofwork.art/single/0x35c40…

Hey, @divergencearran -- is this supposed to be blurred?

@0xkarasy @divergenceharri @Sothebys @Sothebysverse @jaclynlavy @michaelbouhanna For reference, here's a bookmark of the final zoom: proofofwork.art/single/0x35c40… The entire listing feels rushed and careless😞 even the "Catalogue Note" looks like a to-do that hasn't been removed. Given the months of work I put into the project, I'm really disappointed.

@0xkarasy @divergenceharri @Sothebys @Sothebysverse It has effectively infinite resolution so there's absolutely no excuse for that. Here are deeper and deeper zooms into the region that they captured. Even if they didn't want to zoom, why the kilopixel resolution? I agree with @divergenceharri that it's plainly disrespectful.

Nice surprise this evening: PROOF OF {ART}WORK is in Sothebys! Congrats @divergencearran 🔥🔥🔥 sothebys.com/en/buy/auction…
