Now that ZKEVMs are at alpha stage (production-quality performance, remaining work is safety) and PeerDAS is live on mainnet, it's time to talk more about what this combination means for Ethereum.
These are not minor improvements; they are shifting Ethereum into being a fundamentally new and more powerful kind of decentralized network.
To see why, let's look at the two major types of p2p network so far:
BitTorrent (2000): huge total bandwidth, highly decentralized, no consensus
Bitcoin (2009): highly decentralized, consensus, but low bandwidth - because it’s not “distributed” in the sense of work being split up, it’s *replicated*
Now, Ethereum with PeerDAS (2025) and ZK-EVMs (expect small portions of the network using it in 2026), we get: decentralized, consensus and high bandwidth
The trilemma has been solved - not on paper, but with live running code, of which one half (data availability sampling) is *on mainnet today*, and the other half (ZK-EVMs) is *production-quality on performance today* - safety is what remains.
This was a 10-year journey (see the first commit of my original post on DAS here: https://t.co/Fa0jKFgObW , and ZK-EVM attempts started in ~2020), but it's finally here.
Over the next ~4 years, expect to see the full extent of this vision roll out:
* In 2026, large non-ZKEVM-dependent gas limit increases due to BALs and ePBS, and we'll see the first opportunities to run a ZKEVM node
* In 2026-28, gas repricings, changes to state structure, exec payload going into blobs, and other adjustments to make higher gas limits safe
* In 2027-30, large further gas limit increases, as ZKEVM becomes the primary way to validate blocks on the network
A third piece of this is distributed block building.
A long-term ideal holy grail is to get to a future where the full block is *never* constituted in one single place. This will not be necessary for a long time, but IMO it is worth striving for us at least have the capability to do that.
Even before that point, we want the meaningful authority in block building to be as distributed as possible. This can be done either in-protocol (eg. maybe we figure out how to expand FOCIL to make it a primary channel for txs), or out-of-protocol with distributed builder marketplaces. This reduces risk of centralized interference with real-time transaction inclusion, AND it creates a better environment for geographical fairness.
Onward.
🚨 Don’t be Late. Be Real-Time.
Introducing the Linera Buildathon, where developers build the next generation of instant, agentic, onchain apps powered by Linera’s microchains.
a reminder that every chest will contain a Treasure, which will be meaningfully considered by the Foundation at TGE.
this is in addition to any prizes one might receive from the rewards pool.
also, as we’ve shared many times before, historical volume will be rewarded by the Foundation at TGE and is completely separate from our rewards programs.
if you’re an OG and have used OpenSea for years, we see and appreciate you. and if you’re actively using our improved platform today, we also see and appreciate you.
re: TGE, as I posted a few days ago, the Foundation will be sharing more details later this week.
lastly, our team is working tirelessly to allow each of you open your Wave 1 chests. the entire rewards engineering staff was online past 1am last night preparing. still some work to do but we're close! 🤞
Honestly… if you walked out of this liquidation massacre with:
-Your mental health intact
-Your body rested
-You didn’t get fully wiped on leverage
-You still have some stables to deploy
-And your “losses” are just temporary drawdowns on spot bags…
Then you actually did pretty damn well.
So many got obliterated beyond recovery.
Accounts nuked. Loans liquidated. Confidence shattered.
Meanwhile, if all you’re holding is paper losses on spot, you’re not ruined, you’re early and bruised, not dead and buried.
Perspective matters.
Heal your mind. Protect your capital. Stay in the game.
Because survival is the alpha.
Every rewards chest contains a Treasure that will be meaningfully considered by the Foundation at TGE.
The higher level your chest, the more powerful Treasure you'll find.
There are 12 tiers - which one will you discover?
Soneium Score enters Season 02.
After Season 01, the journey continues with new quests from @Aave, @Kyofinance & @Lootcointech.
If you scored 80+ in Season 01, your NFT badge will be available to mint in a few days.
