We built a simulator for the fast confirmation rule, and replayed a years worth of blocks and attestations on Mainnet.
Across 800,000 mainnet slots, roughly 96 out of every 100 slots would have been fast-confirmed within 12 seconds.
Zero false confirmations.

Joseph Chalom on why the biggest ETH holders need to stop waiting for the EF to market Ethereum to institutions:
"The EF's job is to think in decades, decentralize everything, future-proof the chain."
"The private sector's job is to tell institutions the most important thing, no one can change the rules of the game."
"Banks, asset managers, clearing houses building on Ethereum need that certainty. It is not the EF's role to be the marketing arm for institutional adoption. It's ours. The largest stakeholders step up. Period."
Builders: If your mental model of Ethereum mainnet is high fees and limited wallets, it's out of date.
The first builder update explains what has changed and what it means for how you can build 🧵

1/ Clear signing brings a major security upgrade to Ethereum by letting users read exactly what a transaction will do before they approve it.
For builders, a new tutorial on @ethdotorg walks through how to add protocol contracts to the open registry.

Very excited by this initiative from @Asbet0s 👀 This is the start of a broad conversation to make Ethereum delightful.
From the beginning of our Improve UX work, we received a lot of inbound regarding the most glaring user-facing issues that needed to be fixed.
It’s not all about protocol fixes! App and UX builders and designers navigate a wide choice of libraries and systems for their experiences to match web2 standards. EthUX shows them (and their agents 🤖) the way.

Ethereum UX is a popular topic, but we’ve been missing a dedicated resource... until now.
Introducing EthUX
• Living map of UX challenges
• Surfacing less discussed issues
• Track solutions and their adoption
@claudeai 56/ Only by scaling our bandwidth for verification alongside our capacity for execution can we ensure that the intelligence we have summoned preserves the humanity that initiated it.

There is nothing more important to fight for, in this one beautiful life, than human freedom.
Whoever you are, wherever you were born, you deserve liberation, sanctuary, sovereignty.
“Alternatives exist. Trust hope, embrace resilience.
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle.”
Today, the Foundation’s Board released the EF Mandate.
This document, which was first intended for EF members, reaffirms the promise of Ethereum, and the role of EF within this ecosystem.
The Ethereum ecosystem is headed to @consensus_hk.
If you’re headed to Hong Kong, here is a roundup of ecosystem talks, by theme, to have on your schedule.
