We spent last week at #Devcon8, connecting with folks from across the #Ethereum and EVM spaces, and came home with plenty to talk about.
• 11 special ideas for ETC in 2027
• Our packed meetup, with 213 more on the waitlist
• Besu is set to run ETC without a fork, thanks to @diega's plugin work
And a whole lot more below.

🔐 Still on Core-Geth v1.12? Move to the v1.13 line.
v1.13 closes all six CVEs found in v1.12, incl. the P2P node key leak, bounds GraphQL queries and builds on a supported Go. Multiple maintainers in the https://t.co/lhujLftlj5 repo.
Guides: https://t.co/Zomc2tEYUS
PSA: Please verify that your contracts are still working after Glamsterdam! We created a repository with Invariants that will be broken after the fork, so you can verify for yourself.

Running an #EthereumClassic node shouldn’t depend on who set it up.
Our Nix builds of all four clients and NixOS configs for mainnet and Mordor are on GitHub, along with tooling for chain replays and devnets.
No single point of failure. Including us.

Given the number of high-severity CVEs the world has experienced recently, including vulnerabilities at the programming language and OS levels, having multiple independent client implementations is one of Ethereum’s strongest security properties against today’s threats.
By the way, in case anyone was still wondering whether they are completely useless, Binance holds SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, and several other certifications.
The real AI psychosis is thinking "this is just another tool" or "it's just a stochastic parrot" and "humans still need to review every line". You gotta snap out of it.
Why be a volunteer? The reasons are way beyond what words can explain ⚡️
As @EFDevcon Mumbai becomes imminent, we go back almost a year to when the +200 family of amazing volunteers gathered in DevconnectARG for a magical week.
For many, Devcon starts much earlier. Months of training, online sessions at the craziest time zones for some, the prep, the docs, the early arrivals. All of that to be ready to give it all and make Devcon as special as it is.
The rockstars from last year's DevconnectARG greet you in this video, and remind ourselves how good it feels to give, without expecting something in return.
From Ethereum OGs that want to give back, to the newest Ethereans around, Devcon is the place to be!
We're only 7 days away, team, let's do it again in Mumbai 💪🏼
