Excited to share that I contributed to IC3's new survey on the crypto x AI convergence. Check it out at https://t.co/pzIdpTbrXT

The agent economy has a verification problem.

When you call a model API, you trust the provider to run the model they promised, but there's no way to verify it.

This article from @hummusonrails breaks down a paper from @Offchain on verifiable AI inference, and how it could bring proof generation from minutes to milliseconds.

The 2026 IC3 Blockchain Camp is here!

~125 technical researchers, cryptographers, students, and industry practitioners have gathered for the annual event. Thank you to @princeton for hosting us this year.

Gearing up for a week of presentations and project work — more to come

[Ed Felten @EdFelten]

This is a big step for us at @Offchain.

Over the years, our team has been contributing and bringing new innovations across different layers of the stack:

Scaling Ethereum: @arbitrum
Advancing L1 consensus: @prylabs
Innovating smart accounts: @zerodev_app

Each has played a role in pushing crypto infrastructure forward.

Bringing them together puts us in a strong position to support institutions coming onchain with the flexibility and ownership they expect.

Excited for this new chapter and looking forward to sharing what’s coming with everyone.

[Pranay Anchuri @pranaytej]

History rhymes. At least it's on chain now.

Did you know @EdFelten was the Deputy CTO for the USA?

He advised the president and senior government officials on major technology issues.

[Arbitrum @arbitrum]

The Arbitrum Security Council has taken emergency action to freeze the 30,766 ETH being held in the address on Arbitrum One that is connected to the KelpDAO exploit. The Security Council acted with input from law enforcement as to the exploiter’s identity, and, at all times, weighed its commitment to the security and integrity of the Arbitrum community without impacting any Arbitrum users or applications.

After significant technical diligence and deliberation, the Security Council identified and executed a technical approach to move funds to safety without affecting any other chain state or Arbitrum users.

As of April 20 11:26pm ET the funds have been successfully transferred to an intermediary frozen wallet. They are no longer accessible to the address that originally held the funds, and can only be moved by further action by Arbitrum governance, which will be coordinated with relevant parties.

I’m so saddened to hear of the passing of Michael Rabin this morning.

Michael was a father of modern cryptography, a true legend. And I was fortunate to be able to call him my teacher.

If you’re reading this post or did anything else on the internet today, you’ve most definitely used technology that he pioneered.

When I had the privilege to study under Michael, he was already over 80 years old. But I’ve never had a more energetic teacher, someone who was so passionate not only about understanding the universe, but about sharing that knowledge with the next generation.

The world lost a giant today.

May his memory be a blessing.

Robinhood Chain testnet is now live on the Arbitrum platform.

Phase 1 focuses on developer onboarding and infrastructure testing:

Testnet gas + Stock Tokens
Contract deployment
Bridging + explorer visibility

This allows tokenized asset flows to be tested without production risk.

⚠️ Testnet assets have no real-world value.

Finally hit the top 50 in the https://t.co/5pHbk2P8Y0. I've tuned the parameters into the ground, but I think the edge is flatlining.

Just finished my contribution to the Succinct SP1 Phase 2 Trusted Setup! I helped secure a Groth16 circuit by adding randomness from my machine.

We're bringing ZK to the Arbitrum ecosystem with @SuccinctLabs.

Today we're unveiling Tandem's partnership with Succinct, enabling faster capital movement and simpler integration for developers through the power of modular ZK provers.

[Robinhood @RobinhoodApp]

You didn’t think we’d just announce new products, did you?

The Robinhood Chain is currently being built on @arbitrum to power the future of asset ownership.

#RobinhoodPresents https://t.co/g2tVe85G4W

[Offchain @Offchain]

Working with the @RobinhoodApp team has been an incredible journey.

We believe the launch of their tokenized stocks on @Arbitrum today is just the beginning of what will be the rails that powers finance all around the world with their soon to be Robinhood Layer 2 blockchain. 🧵

[Senator Bill Hagerty @SenatorHagerty]

The GENIUS Act will cement U.S. dollar dominance, protect customers, drive demand for U.S. Treasuries, & ensure that digital asset innovation happens in the U.S., not overseas.

With this bill, we are one step closer to becoming the global leader in crypto.

Let’s get this done.

[Offchain @Offchain]

We're reinforcing our commitment to the ecosystem and strengthening our alignment by adding $ARB to our treasury through a strategic purchase plan. It's never been more clear that the ecosystem is growing through technical advancements and strategic DAO initiatives. Under the purchase plan, Offchain Labs seeks to purchase $ARB over time through open market and other transactions based on predetermined parameters set forth in the plan.

Let’s continue to build Arbitrum's future!

[Ed Felten @EdFelten]

Ten years ago today, I drew a diagram on my office whiteboard at @princeton. It showed what is today called an “interactive fraud proof”. This was the seed from which Arbitrum grew. 🧵

[Arbitrum @arbitrum]

We’re very excited to announce a long-term collaboration with @RobinhoodApp that will encompass features dedicated to lowering the barrier for onboarding new users into Web3 through #RobinhoodWallet 💙🧡🪶

Seeing lots of chatter criticizing Ethereum’s rollup-centric approach, arguing that layering is somehow artificial or unnatural. I beg to differ. Experience teaches that layering is a cornerstone of good protocol design. Exhibit A: the Internet. 🧵

[Arbitrum @arbitrum]

The Arbitrum ecosystem just got a whole lot easier to explore, with a huge new update to the Arbitrum Portal!

Explore the Portal, a gateway to over 600 apps on Arbitrum One & Nova. 💙🧡
