@Cerkoryn @0xNLYFANS Vitalik also has mentioned how they’re planning to shrink the EF as time goes on and there needs to be another org responsible for doing the BD and marketing as that’s not in the EF remit

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@Cerkoryn @0xNLYFANS I think he’s talking about how the EF prioritizes their research fund themselves from their genesis funding, etc not so much how it works onchain

@adamKDean @BendingData @cardanzo_tools @hizz_io TBH major institutions have been hiring people to model and build Around Dune for their own investments as well as DeFi vault managers… this would be the type of exposure you’d want to bridge the gap between a very niche solution and broader exposure

[Miguel @USCMigs]

There is already apparently a multi year contract to support this effort. Dune is major data analytics platform across Ethereum and Solana and has proven durable with Revenue through bears and bulls. Why waste funds on unproven teams when there’s support, a long term contract and broader exposure outside of Cardano to show data?

[Intersect @IntersectMBO]

Hello Dune!

Hot off the back of last week’s announcement welcoming Pyth to Cardano, the Critical Integrations program is now bringing first-class analytics to the ecosystem, making Cardano’s on-chain activity legible in the same data environment used by the rest of the industry.

Following approval by the Steering Committee representing @IOGroup @Cardano_CF @emurgo_io @midnightfdn, we have signed a multi-year agreement with @Dune to integrate Cardano data directly into their analytics platform.

A thread 🧵

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@Cerkoryn @adamKDean @BendingData @cardanzo_tools @hizz_io Yes I know this oh too well… it’s not a small feat to try and do analytics on your own

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@janowitz @ebfull Yeah agreed you’d detect in the turnstiles approach built in between pools as the minted coins move to unshileded pools to an exchange. If the exploit is maintained under a small margin potentially could go unnoticed.

[Dev 🧪 @zkDragon]

Zcash is quantum resistant money.

- Scaling to thousands of TPS
- Post-Quantum plan firmly in place and executing
- Inclusion latencies dropping
- Unshakeable privacy

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@whatmonero @ebfull The turnstile balances of the shielded pool probably haven’t meaningfully changed… if exploited was going to move coins to an exchange or spend elsewhere you’d see a balance increase or shift between pools

[Miguel @USCMigs]

They can check the balances of the shielded pool flows and if someone exploited a minting or double spend attack you would be able to detect it between flows… the nature of privacy tech doesn’t allow you to check individual balances but the turn style approach they have built helps mitigate or give visibility to it

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@zooko Already threw my name up there hope to help make an impact with ZCash!

@nate_zec @shieldedmark An example from MetaMask

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@nate_zec @shieldedmark EVM wallets do this by default as a UX with fast, medium, and slow speeds and shows an example time for the transaction to clear the mempool, should be easy for a wallet team to implement

@DeanEigenmann Just started Utopia for Realists… interesting insights so far regarding mincome/UBI

[Miguel @USCMigs]

@ec1ipse_sol @mert It’s busy but the zec hub people are helpful if you need it… the forum is probably a better place to interact with people

[Miguel @USCMigs]

I think the big challenge is around duration of incentive alignments… most grifters/merc capital look are purely transactional and out once they get their incentive. How align incentive duration is the big unlock/missing piece between durable/sticky holders and short term traders… been thinking about it a lot myself too
