For some reason, the creators of the dog tokens TikTok normies are going wild over thought it was a good idea to put liquidity on Uniswap and give the LP tokens to Vitalik so he has half the supply

He just withdrew all the $SHIBA $AKITA $SHIB $ELON and is dumping them on Uniswap
This alone is already incredibly based of Vitalik, but then he went and donated $500M of his $AKITA to @gitcoin, a quadratic funding grants program for open-source developers 🤯

I may disagree with Vitalik on the topic of price oracles, but I simply cannot ignore just how based this move really was

Vitalik dumped the doge tokens to save Ethereum gas prices

Vitalik just sent 13,292 $ETH ($54M) to Coinbase, I don't blame him for taking profits tbh, he didn't ask for these dog meme tokens

After this saga is over, hopefully people will stop apeing into these tokens, leading to lower gas prices

Vitalik just sent $1B of $SHIB to the India Covid-Crypto Relief Fund

Given the collapsing price and liquidity rugpull, they definitely won't be able to cash out the full amount, but this is still a based way to donate to a good cause

Woah scatch that, Vitalik just sent 500 $ETH ($2M) to the India Covid-Crypto Relief Fund

This can definitely be cashed out for the full amount, I have a feeling most of the proceeds from this saga are going to go to causes like this

It will be interesting to hear Vitalik's perspective regarding his motivation, where all the funds are going to, and the greater implications of it all

I really did not expect any of this to happen, but imo those dog token holders were going to get rugged eventually anyways
And this appears to be the end, 8,700 $ETH ($34M) withdrawn to the vitalik.eth address

Not a bad ROI considering the dog meme tokens were gifted for completely free, the crypto ecosystem never ceases to entertain me

1/ Vitalik recently created a proposal on the Uniswap governance forum that they should shift focus and create a human-based token-weighted voting oracle mechanism to provide algorithmic stablecoins with USD-paired price data

Here's why I think this is not a practical proposal
2/ What is suggested is that Uniswap copy the Augur/UMA model where $UNI token holders are asked what the price of an asset is against USD, it is voted upon, and then multi-day/week dispute rounds are initiated as needed that can ultimately result in a token fork
3/ To note, this proposed oracle mechanism has nothing to do with Uniswap's existing on-chain TWAP oracle that I explored in this blog post below

It uses a fundamentally different oracle model, so the points being made here are different

Bitcoin's energy consumption is a feature, not a bug

Sounds like a meme but it's true, the security of PoW blockchains comes from distributed energy consumption

The more energy consumed, the more secure the network

Doesn't justify the energy usage, but it's context
That being said, Proof of Stake is a real viable alternative that isn't just theoretical

Ethereum is ditching PoW and switching to PoS within a year using the exisiting beacon chain

Even if you disagree, the "Bitcoin/PoW is wasteful" narrative isn't going away
The common argument I see against PoS is "the rich just get richer" but we see this same dynamic with PoW and mining farms

Infact, because of the economies of scale, it's more concentrated

Having more capital allows you to earn more captial, that is universally true

This meme has never been more relavant than with the $SHIB nonsense

Driven entirely by TikTok retail investors, some have generated an ROI of 400,000x (turning $17 to $6.5M)

However, given the liquidity profile, 99% of $SHIB holders will never realize any profits Image
There are aspects of the crypto economy I love like the democratization of finance through DeFi

However, the reality is that when you give people permissionless freedoms, they are free to do as they wish

Thus, we have these dog coins consuming a majority of Ethereum's bandwidth
This leads to exuberant fomo where users are paying $265 in gas fees to buy $40 of tokens

They need a 6.6x to just break even and a 13.2x if they want to break even after selling

Seems ridiculous but if you feel you have the chance of making 100,000x....
