After years running SEAL 911 and coordinating incident response, we've identified a critical gap: while many protocols have strong smart contract audits, there's no standardized way for them to demonstrate operational security maturity.
Today we're issuing an RFC for our newest initiative: SEAL Certifications

@BlockEnthusiast@ChainLinkGod@sassal0x@Tim_Roughgarden yes exactly, i was trying to emphasize the same thing
sybil resistance is an inherent property of permissionless consensus. its essentially implied with a quality leader selection mechanism
like eth is no more sybil resistant than btc. its not special or stronger in PoS
@BlockEnthusiast@ChainLinkGod@sassal0x@Tim_Roughgarden or in other words, eth is NOT resistant to an entity with 51% of the stake (or whatever the higher technical % is)
but it is resistant to sybils. and hashpower. and water. and space bugs! 😂
@BlockEnthusiast@ChainLinkGod@sassal0x@Tim_Roughgarden hehehe actually yes exactly!
thats the point im trying to make, i agree the definition is pretty mundane. sybil resistance is just about sybils having no distinct advantage
power is proportional to your resources like youre saying, not the number of nodes you run ...
@BlockEnthusiast@ChainLinkGod@sassal0x yes tldr sybil resistance is one entity/many nodes. but in consensus it's about probability of proposing the next block *remaining the same whether you sybil or not*
e.g. bitcoin is sybil resistant bc 1 miner/10% HP is same as 10 miners/1% HP
@Tim_Roughgarden on YT is awesome
you either accept all digital space is ruled by those currently in power, or you demand digital space is its own nation free from the shackles of current regimes.
hot take
the most underrated reason that crypto will win is because "don't trust, verify" is the only solution for a world that has completely lost trust in every institution it inhabits

VCs who have now deigned themselves to dignify memecoins construe them as “tokenizing community, tokenizing culture, creating new asset classes” and we’re all like, actually we just like playing musical chairs why are you saying all of that stuff it’s making me uncomfortable
