9/ @noicedotso launched on @farcaster_xyz, enabling likes, replies and DMs to translate to monetary value. In 6 weeks the team saw 1.6M+ tips worth $91K+. Ethereum is for microtransactions.

10/ @ethereumfndn announced a reorg of their protocol R&D efforts, with a near term focus on three strategic goals: scale L1, scale blobs for L2s, and improve UX.

0/ the biggest ethereum upgrade since the merge is coming.

and this time, you’ll feel it.

it’s called pectra and here’s why it matters

a guest thread by @binji_x ↓ Image
1/ the merge was for the protocol.

pectra is for the people.

for years, upgrades made ethereum work better.

pectra makes ethereum feel better.

it is ethereum’s glow-up.
2/ so what’s new in pectra?

a lot.

this is where ethereum starts feeling like a modern network:

- fewer clicks
- smarter wallets
- cheaper txs
- cleaner staking

let’s break it down ↓

0/ Ethereum is for financial market infrastructure: a guest thread by @malekanoms
1/ I recently co-authored a paper with ECB Director General Ulrich Bindseil, exploring how a network like Ethereum has features that represent a leap forward in financial infrastructure and enables financial products that can’t exist on TradFi rails
2/ The features in question are streaming payments, omni-asset settlement, programmability, and disintermediation

0/ You’ve probably heard people yapping about Cypherpunk, but what exactly is it and what is Ethereum’s specific brand of Cypherpunk? A guest thread by @post_polar_
1/ When I’m teaching, I condense Ethereum Cypherpunk into four key values: decentralization, permissionlessness, censorship resistance and credible neutrality.
2/ Decentralisation means power should be distributed as widely as possible among all Ethereum’s stakeholders.

0/ Celo transitions to an L2, a guest thread by @marek_

5 years ago, @Celo launched on Earth Day with one goal:

Build something different.

A blockchain for everyone—no matter where you live or what phone you carry. That dream never changed & this week, it just got stronger 👇 Image
1/ After 20+ months of planning, coding & testing, @Celo is now an Ethereum Layer 2 w/ OP Stack & @EigenDA, featuring:

- 1s blocks
- Sub-cent txns
- Fee abstraction (gas payable in USDT & USDC)
- Native bridging
- Ethereum security
- Ultragreen Money
- CELO token duality & more
2/ Migrating an existing L1 to an L2 was no small feat. We completely changed the way it operates while preserving its chain history (no regenesis needed). The upgrade was trustless—full nodes could verify the state change.

And, the canonical version of CELO moved to Ethereum!

0/ Exploring the world of onchain art, a guest thread by @lukeweaver_eth

“The greatest artists of the 21st century won’t make paintings, they’ll make programs.”

Today, we’re highlighting artists and projects that are only possible on Ethereum

🧵👇 Image
1/ Art on Ethereum: A Conceptual Framework

Great Art confronts the forces that are dissolving the world of the present.

The Art that defined the past lives in museums.

The Art that will define the future will live on Ethereum.
2/ "Art" and "Ethereum" are two topics I feel unqualified to speak about with sufficient depth.

I'm not an authority. I'm an amateur. A student.

But I'm all in, so the motivating question I'll attempt to answer for myself and the reader is, "Why would I make art on Ethereum?"

0/ Diving into Ethereum's Layer 2 ecosystem, a guest thread by @daddysether from the @Layer2Roundup.

L2s are the onboarding vehicles to Ethereum's onchain economy, so today we're highlighting some of the biggest L2 updates from the past few weeks.

🧵👇
1/ L2 protocols are scaling solutions that are designed to make transacting on Ethereum super fast, and ultra low-cost for users all over the world.

Most importantly, L2s have the ability to leverage the industry-leading security properties of the Ethereum blockchain.
2/ First up, @arbitrum BoLD.

BoLD introduces permissionless validation, which means that any node operator can submit a fraud proof to challenge the state of the chain.

This is a huge decentralization unlock that heightens the security of Arbitrum One.
