This is a very personal note I want to share.

Exactly 10 years ago today, on November 11, 2016, the Golem Project held its token sale. In less than 30 minutes, we raised 820,000 ETH, minting 1 billion tokens - what we now know as $GLM, back then called GNT. That day marked the beginning of my wild ride through the Ethereum ecosystem.

Although I haven't worked on @golemproject since 2019, my commitment to $GLM and Ethereum continues through my leadership at @golemfoundation. Since 2023 we're staking 100,000 ETH and directing the yield to $GLM holders participating in @OctantApp , as well as to Ethereum’s public goods. Our long-term goal is to secure this treasury for the benefit of $GLM holders and the broader Ethereum ecosystem. We remain committed to the values that brought us here: freedom, open source, and privacy.

There are times when I feel the weight of these 10 years: all the decisions I’ve made, good and bad. Golem has endured, thanks in no small part to Ethereum and its community. Now it's our turn to keep giving back - to $GLM holders and to Ethereum.

This is our pledge at @GolemFoundation

Having walked around Mumbai a bit, and also having seen the Jio complex a bit, I have to say I am quite conflicted about India.

First up, everyone I’ve interacted with was super nice, whether that’s because I’m a foreigner or not, I cannot say, I’m hoping people are nice in general. The food I ate everywhere was also super tasty, tho of course I did avoid street food that I feared might be problematic for me.

All that said, the contrast between the streets of Mumbai and the malls of Mumbai are immensely striking. It is as if there were two completely different worlds superimposed into the same physical location. One is of absolute luxury, the other of absolute poverty, with seemingly very little middle ground in between.

It is quite saddening that it became of this really. I am absolutely of the belief that having different classes is both unavoidable and undesirable to avoid; yet it’s so hard to believe that all this luxury is unable to do anything against all this poverty.

Of course, as a foreigner, I am completely oblivious and ignorant to the state, problems and remedy attempts, so I will refrain from making any suggestions. Rather will close with an observation, that we should do better; all of us who has a capacity to enact change, however small.

Thank you Mumbai for the opportunity to experience both sides of the coin, and hoping for a brighter future for everyone there. ❤️🇮🇳

I got sold on @radicle, the decentralized git network, by Johannes Kühlewindt. It looks just as it always should have been. Best find at @Web3summit.

What a @EFDevcon!

India bringing community back to its roots. Quality over quantity. Absence of grift. Best devcon food (sry Prague). Abundance of young talent. Lots of love, friendship & smiles. Music stage was perfect. Hubs were great. Talks were lovely. Let's come back soon.

Swarm recommended!

@akprettyok takes on a rather provocative proposition: what happens to artists, audiences, and the economics of culture when access is no longer the commodity?

Devcon 9 is coming to Lisbon! 🇵🇹

October 11–13, 2027

Building on Mumbai, we're bringing Ethereum's builders together with more friends and allies working toward a freer, more open internet.

[Ethereum Swarm @ethswarm]

@EFDevcon 2027 in Lisbon was announced with a bang! 🔥

What a week in Mumbai! So many great people, conversations, and memories.

Thank you to everyone who made this Devcon so special.

See you in Europe! 🇵🇹

[Solar Punk @SolarPunk_buzz]

Where are the servers?

At Devcon 8, Bálint Ujvári showed live collaborative editing in @EthereumRemix with no server in the middle: WebRTC carries the edits, a CRDT merges them, @ethswarm hosts it all.

Collaborative workspaces, beta. Try the demo room:

[Bob Summerwill @ DEVCON8 🇮🇳 @BobSummerwill]

@ethswarm @radicle Fun fact of the day ... I dug more into the question of who has attended every single DEVCON, from DEVCON0 onwards.

My conclusion is 3-4 people on the planet:

@VitalikButerin
@zeligf
@hdiedrich
@ChrJentzsch (maybe, not confirmed he is here, but he was at 0-7)
