Vlad shows how a tokenized stock is created on @RobinhoodApp

Via chalkboard Image
Tokenized stocks that trade 25/7/365 on @Bitstamp after they’ve been tokenized is actually pretty crazy

NASDAQ and NYSE could never Image

Justin Drake’s talk

“The Beam Chain”

The final design of Ethereum

A proposed redesign of the consensus layer, to skip to the endgame Image
Only touching the consensus layer makes the Beam Chain forward compatible

Nothing changes to the apps Image
The Beacon chain is 5 years old! Old!

We now have breakthroughs in SNARKs, that the Beacon Chain does not leverage

There’s also a lot of tech debt that needs to be removed Image

Ethereum development has prioritized L2 execution for 2+ years now

This has come at the cost of L1 execution

L1 execution is lagging behind Moore's law, and L2s receive an undue growth and valuation subsidy, paid from the L1

IMO, we should reprioritize L1 execution efforts
I am aligned with @MaxResnick1's idea that L1 hardware requirements should be "the most recent two generations of Macbook Pros"

This is totally inline with the solo-staker social contract

This increases the accessibility of the Ethereum L1 to 10x more users, with little cost
@MaxResnick1 The argument against this:

The Ethereum ecosystem needs reorganize around needing less synchronous composability - growing L1 execution will reduce urgency around solving this problem.

the rollup-centric Ethereum is the correct roadmap - let's tackle the hard problems head-on

1️⃣ Restaking and Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs)

The LST wars are ending, but the LRT wars have just begun.

LRTs are the next evolution of LSTs - yield-bearing liquid ETH tokens, with all yields from @eigenlayer imbued ontop of regular ETH staking yield

15+ different teams are chasing the trophy of the #1 most liquid LRT token in #Ethereum

The #1 spot will go to whoever maximizes yields while minimizing risk - slashing events will be unacceptable

Control risk, maximize gains.

Bonus: LRTs are dual airdrop hunting opportunities. Depositers into LRT projects get both the Eigenlayer Airdrop and the airdrop for the LRT they deposited to.

Happy hunting, friends!

(All my research & notes around LRTs are available in the Bankless Citizens discord)Image

🧱Enter OP Stack🧱

@optimismFND's OP Stack is going to COMPLETELY change the landscape of the #Ethereum L2 ecosystem

Every ETH L2 has its own 'secret sauce'; the thing that gives it a competitive edge vs other L2s

BUT, the OP STACK is something ALTOGETHER DIFFERENT

1/🧵👇
The OP Stack is one layer "more meta" than just being an L2

The OP Stack is a scaffolding standard for ANY possible rollup construction

If you don't want to finish this thread, I made this video on the OP Stack

otherwise, read on!

2/🧵👇
Every L2 has 'secret sauce' that makes it competitive

The OP Stack is a structure to modularize all components of an L2 into:

1. Standardized
2. Open source
3. Modules

...for L2 Chains

All the competitive strategies that L2s have taken, can each be made into a✨module✨
