I think you are misperceiving the situation. What I ask for is quite balanced, it's simply that we should have privacy in our digital communications and activities, of a similar type that we had for thousands of years (when we had in-person voice conversations, used cash for payments, etc) It is a minority (far from a majority!) in government and tech industry that is pursuing a type of absolutism, where they openly use phrases like "there should be no place to hide", seeking a kind of utopia (from their perspective) where they have the ability to see everything and nothing is out of bounds. Surveillance of physical space has increased massively over the past decade, thanks to AI and cameras, and on top of that there is the growth of all kinds of internet tracking. It is definitely not the side the wants privacy that is proposing anything unprecedented or extreme. There are many opportunities to improve safety today, mostly around common-sense policing improvements, not carelessly releasing repeat offenders, etc. Meanwhile, intercepted digital messages are a security vulnerability, and there are many easy-to-find stories where mandatory wiretap data collected by one government gets hacked by other governments. We need our physical environments to be secure and we need our digital environments to be secure.

Ethereum’s missing component at this point is some form of native privacy. ETH’s utility value would literally jump over night. I feel like privacy is the type of feature that can give an asset true “moneyness” qualities. L1 privacy could also drive a surge in mainnet fees.

Ethereum has a state storage problem. Devs pay once to write data, nodes pay forever to store it. But EIP-8037 is not time-weighted rent or ongoing fees. It significantly raises upfront gas costs for new contracts, accounts & storage slots to control state growth as it scales👇

This is how the algorithm can completely destroy your reach over night. This is the last: Left: 3 months Right: 2 weeks Super consistent 85-95% drop on all metrics. everything after a viral post going ballistic, I tried everything, cool down, delete low quality posts, block bot accounts. Kept posting after cool down, nothing really breaks through. Short hot takes 🛑 Long form with good signal 🛑 Viral potential post 🛑 Core audience value post 🛑 What bothers me here is that 48h after posting a mega viral post I get suppressed back to the Stone Age. This follow previous situations I’ve had with the grok powered algorithm. Where it feels like tweepCred falls far below a certain level, and you’re locked into a low reach prison with every effort to break out is making it harder and harder to do so. I’m asking for transparency on what we can do as content creators when this happens. I don’t want to spam my way out of this. I’d like to know, if I did something wrong, how I can address it, take the responsibility of algorithmic suppression for what ever the length is. But this limbo is most likely going to make me leave the platform.
