the last "say the quiet thing out loud" things i'd like to hear from vitalik is that ETH is a store of value and one of the most important apps on ethereum

The Ethereum whitepaper was published 12 years ago today.

Ethereum changed the course of crypto by giving builders greater tools - including a Turing complete language!

Shoutout to @VitalikButerin, the Ethereum co-founders, and the entire Ethereum community. So many of the products responsible for where our industry is today wouldn’t have happened without your vision.

I'd love to connect AI agents to my files, email, trading accounts, chat groups - incredibly powerful

But i can't do it until i have data privacy and control

imagine the data breaches

imagine the loss of control

imagine a hack - you could be utterly destroyed

What I want is turnkey hardware that runs local models that the leading AI agent tools can treat as a cloud - same UX, but privately without compromise

Something like @__tinygrad__ Tinybox meets @Ledger

There's got to be $10 billion opportunity for the startup who makes this real

Because what's the alternative.

The AI companies own us?

Is it possible to make a fully encrypted, bulletproof private AI cloud.

When you use DeepSeek app, all your convo, IP, prompts, etc are going to Chinese government.

When you use DeepSeek through the https://t.co/iUPC8ij60f app, none of it is going anywhere.

DeepSeek is for Pro users only, and of course you can pay in crypto, no email required even.

"Trust is a $35 trillion industry" — @lalleclausen

Crypto is trust automation.

ZK is trust automation at industrial scale.

35% of all jobs in the US are in trust-building functions.

Crypto has become a $2.6T industry by automating some of these trust functions, and doing a better job at it than authorities and institutions.

Automation means replacing humans labour with machines, which always brings higher effectiveness and lower costs — by orders of magnitude.

Once you look at it from this perspective, you can't unsee that "don't trust, verify" is not just a catchy slogan. It's literally the revelation of how blockchains are creating — and redistributing — value.

On a long enough time horizon, trust created by "can't be evil" technology will always economically outperform trust created by a "don't be evil" org — just like we've seen machines eventually surpass any skilled and reputable master.

ZK is the ultimate trust automation scaler. It's the only blockchain scaling technology that is secured by math, not validators. And its capacity is unlimited.

That's why, ZK is the endgame.

We're rapidly approaching the point where developer experience, cost and performance of ZK rollups will flip those of optimistic rollups. And the Golden Age of ZK will begin.

I have decided to resign from my Eigenlayer advisorship. While I believe that the role was negociated in good faith and with the aim of making sure that Eigenlayer is well aligned with Ethereum, I understand that the perception of this relationship has been different and that for many the conflict of interest this creates is difficult to reconcile with my role as an Ethereum researcher.

Eigenlayer is a great project that I hope will continue to complement Ethereum well in several ways. But Ethereum has a lot of important work to do and I will focus all my attention on getting it done. This will allow me to be more effective in implementing Danksharding and other important projects.

[Justin Drake @drakefjustin]

TLDR: I dropped the EigenLayer advisorship, left the ultra sound team, and made other changes to double down on neutrality and focus on L1 research and coordination.

In September I let go of the EigenFoundation advisorship. I want to apologise to the Ethereum community and EF colleagues for the drama I caused. In hindsight it was a bad move for me to make.

The ability to meaningfully effect change at L1 often hinges on legitimacy. Public perception is key. Ethereum is special in no small part thanks to the standards researchers, devs, and coordinators hold themselves to.

Going forward I will turn down all advisorships, angel investments, and security councils. This personal policy goes above and beyond the recent EF-wide conflict of interest policy, not because that was asked of me but because I want to signal commitment to neutrality.

The consensus layer roadmap is particularly ambitious and exciting. IMO there's a solid half-decade of critical work ahead. L1 builders have their work cut out and I want to keep giving it my best shot.

To simplify and refocus I have also stepped out of the ultra sound team. The project has three excellent full-time contributors—Alex, Niclas, Christian. They have taken complete responsibility for operations and decision making of the ultra sound relay and dashboard.

Ethereum's antifragility has been a recurring source of inspiration—we somehow always find a way to emerge stronger. 2024 had its challenges. I'm optimistic 2025 will be a fantastic year for Ethereum and an energising one for L1 R&D.

See y'all around Devcon :)

North Korean IT workers with fake identities got jobs at @cosmos, @SushiSwap, @yearnfi, @FantomFDN, @zerolendxyz and several other big-name blockchain protocols.

This investigation marks the first time any of these projects have publicly disclosed that they unknowingly hired the workers.

.@coinbase integration with @zksync Era opens up more opportunities to access the Elastic Chain.

Over a dozen ZK Chains have announced plans to launch this year, like @Treasure_DAO, @AbstractChain, @LensProtocol, @grvt_io, & @ZKcandyHQ.

@phi_xyz Hi

[DCinvestor @DCinvestor]

there used to be an unwritten code in crypto that if you get rich off of it, you do what you can to help the cause of decentralization in your own way

now it's mostly just becoming a super cringe influencer, monetizing your audience and extracting max money from them to become even more wealthy with little work and often no real skills until you probably end up in jail for doing something illegal or lose an influencer fight or something, idk man
