EthCC9 starts today â and I'm here as a volunteer đ
I've been building 6th Republic: an on-chain participatory voting system. Still early days, a lot of work to be done â but the demo is live !
Today's question:
đ Will RWA tokenization be Ethereum's biggest use case by 2030?
SOMEONE TURNED THE VIRAL "TEACH CLAUDE TO TALK LIKE A CAVEMAN TO SAVE TOKENS" STRATEGY INTO AN ACTUAL CLAUDE CODE SKILL
one-line install and it cuts ~75% of tokens while keeping full technical accuracy
they even benchmarked it with real token counts from the API:
> explain React re-render bug: 1180 tokens â 159 tokens (87% saved)
> fix auth middleware: 704 â 121 (83% saved)
> set up PostgreSQL connection pool: 2347 â 380 (84% saved)
> implement React error boundary: 3454 â 456 (87% saved)
> debug PostgreSQL race condition: 1200 â 232 (81% saved)
average across 10 tasks: 65% savings. range is 22-87% depending on the task.
three intensity levels:
> lite: drops filler, keeps grammar. professional but no fluff
> full: drops articles, fragments, full grunt mode
> ultra: maximum compression. telegraphic. abbreviates everything
works as a skill for Claude Code and a plugin for Codex.
this is PEAK
Day 2 at EthCC9 đ
Today's question on 6R:
đ Will ZK-based privacy protocols be banned before they reach mass adoption?

Mint your passport, cast your vote â YES/NO â results settled on-chain
The idea? Bring real participatory democracy to DAOs. My first blockchain project, inspired by the vision of a 6th Republic đ«đ·
Would love your feedbackđ

Web3 Research Fellowships Developers Rarely Know About (2026)
Most Web3 developers only know about hackathons.
But fellowships are how the best builders fast-track their careers.
You get:
- direct mentorship from protocol teams
- real research & shipping experience
- ecosystem credibility
- sometimes stipends or funding
Here are programs worth exploring:
1.) Ethereum Foundation â Ecosystem Support Program
(@ethereum)
Focus: protocol research, cryptography, ecosystem tooling
Many fellows end up contributing directly to core Ethereum projects.
https://t.co/17HW0BilOS
2.) Ethereum Next Billion Fellowship (@EFDevconnect)
For builders bringing Ethereum to underrepresented communities.
Great exposure to EF researchers and ecosystem leads.
https://t.co/b3EdbkmvEJ
3.) MLH Fellowship â Web3 Track (@MLHacks)
12-week paid program. Build on Solana and other chains.
Rolling applications â open year-round.
https://t.co/aLkqNIjFh5
4.) Paradigm Fellowship (@paradigm)
3-day immersion at Paradigm HQ in SF.
50 spots. Opens every September.
For curious builders â students to dropouts welcome.
https://t.co/JMAHfKLsOn
5.) Orange DAO Fellowship
$100K SAFE written before the first session.
12 weeks. Demo day. 1,300+ YC alumni network.
Best for builders thinking about fundraising.
https://t.co/5IcbtfQ73V
6.) yAcademy Fellowship
Fellowship for Web3 security auditors.
Focus: smart contract security research.
Free. Highly selective.
https://t.co/tIHMiXWDjW
7.) Polygon Fellowship (@0xPolygon)
8-week mentor-led program.
Focus on:
- ZK infrastructure
- DeFi applications
- developer tooling
Free to apply.
https://t.co/Zu2fRJcvdg
8.) Dev3Pack Fellowship 2026
For developers learning Web3 full-stack development.
Includes:
- study groups
- technical mentorship
- hackathon prep
Open applications.
https://t.co/DV8OQnYwjX
Why these matter:
Many Web3 engineers started through fellowships not job boards.
They help you:
- build real credibility
- meet protocol teams directly
- ship projects that matter
If you're serious about Web3 in 2026, these programs are worth watching.

đš Solv Protocol just got hacked for 38 BTC
The bug is described to be self re-entracy in the contract where transferring your NFT will:
1. Burn it
2. Mint you tokens
3. The internal onERC721Received will trigger and mint you the same tokens again
