A few weeks ago I said there was a seismic change in Ethereum's social layer about to happen. It's happening. Multiple big infrastructure players that most users don't know about are starting to collaborate and build together, doubling down on ETH and the Ethereum network. Follow @blockspaceforum to keep up with it. The biggest block builder (@titanbuilderxyz), the biggest relay (@ultrasoundmoney), @ETHGasOfficial, @Commit_Boost (38% network adoption), @QuasarBuilder, @primev_xyz, @nuconstruct, @blocknative, @fabric_ethereum, researchers from the @ethereumfndn, and many others are all coordinating. Many of us realized that they had to team up and work closely together to make our opinions stronger and speed up our ability to deliver. In the last 5 years @class_lambda built many of the most relevant zkVMs and Ethereum L2s. Last year we went all in on @ethereum L1. In a year we built @ethrex_client, one of the fastest production ready execution clients at about 60k lines of code. We're coordinating with big stakers and the MEV pipeline to grow its adoption while also shipping multiple products around it. We're building a new RISC-V zkVM with @alignedlayer and @3miLabs that I think will become a standard for L1 proving and @eth_proofs in the short term. We're working on @leanEthereum by building our own @ethlambda_lean client. We helped develop the @Commit_Boost sidecar that standardizes communication between validators and third party protocols. We're happy to have helped build a critical piece of software that is now running on 38% of the Ethereum network. We also started collaborating with @titanbuilderxyz on different things under @kubimensah's lead. Hopefully soon we'll be working closely with @alextes and @ultrasoundrelay too! There's more I want to share but can't yet. For now I can say that @class_lambda is part of the @blockspaceforum process and I'm very excited about what's coming. Keep an eye on what we will be doing, I promise it's gonna get interesting.

What if we could make the Ethereum transaction journey and block construction process faster, cheaper, more flexible, censorship resistant, & robustness? What if we could do this today? This is what the Blockspace Forum is about. 🧵👇

@amorriscode Been doing this for a while already. Here's claude ssh'd into my car's android screen

The sale isn't the victory. The TGE isn't the victory. @hotpot_dao said it best after the Megaeth sale. Now is the time to build, not the time to celebrate. Does launching into low sentiment hurt? Yes. Do I support the community decision to launch right now? No. But I have to respect the will of the community. Death to the speculative bullshit. Build something real or fuck off.

Imagine how many people of all different levels of capability are attempting to build a Discord killer right now with an llm out of spite. The network is the valuable asset, but the spectrum of participants on a mission to de-shitify the modern internet has gone hockey stick.

You have two options for the next decade. 1. Anchor yourself to the most successful technofeudalist in your vicinity and hope for the best 2. Build leverage with AI before leverage builds against you (50/50 truth/shitposting)

I've been deep building agent-based tooling for managing Wavefive's infrastructure for the last few months. We've gone from multiple touches per day at most levels - network, baremetal, virtual workloads, software, to a handful per week. This is within a highly opinionated hardware stack where we host everything (the networks, the baremetal, the power, the HVAC, the redundancy) and the closest we come to anything cloud-related is DNS. This week is the first where we never directly touched a single workload - it's all planned and executed by an agent. We're not at autonomy yet, I'm too paranoid for that, but the way we work has changed radically. I get to spend all the extra time working on new things and focusing on personal life. Grateful doesn't even begin to cover how good it all feels.

I moved back to desktop Linux in January after a 20 year hiatus and it’s been an excellent experience. I don’t think there’s much life left in Windows given how good the Linux desktop experience is in comparison plus Steam’s contributions to the Linux gaming ecosystem.

If the last few weeks have struck terror, fear, sadness, doubt into your heart and you're not sure if you can cope going through it repeatedly... Bottle that feeling. Sit with it for a while. Then make a plan so you never need to feel like this again. Make yourself immune so that when others capitulate, you and yours can take it to the face and weather the storm. And when the good times roll and everyone around you is acting like they made it, get that bottle out and pop the cork. Smell the terror. Because it will be back again and if you've not figured your shit out by then, it's all on you and you've nobody but yourself to blame. I'm absolutely projecting but I'm absolutely serious. You owe it to yourself and those around you to become absolutely immune to the absolute bullshit we are surrounded by. I believe in you.

'Just use a VPS' bro. It's just a 1-click, 2222-step install.

Incredible to see the meme play out so accurately re @openclaw. Some incredible takes 😅 "Runs Clawdbot on a $5/mo Hetzner VPS in Frankfurt” • “SSH tunnel + tmux + systemd service + nginx reverse proxy for WhatsApp bridge” • “Wrote a custom Docker compose with 47 environment

💯 @ZKPassport - you know they are doing it right when something feels like an alien technology compared to the incumbents.

@0xPredicate @aztecnetwork Without Predicate cucking me at the nth hour of the sale, i would have never discovered how powerful and frictionless @ZKPassport is. Thanks, Predicate!

So can i dump my 40TB arbitrum nodes now or what

@0xzak Hell yeah. Homarr is a nice dash for everything. Yes still using plex, having too much fun building out homeassistant!

A VPN ban doesn’t mean that they’re going to lock up every single person who uses a VPN or watches porn. Your government’s strategy is to make “crimes” like this as common and easy to commit as possible. This way, if you ever do something completely legal which they *actually* don’t like, *which can be completely unrelated to VPNs or bypassing age verification,* they can pull up your internet history and easily prosecute you. Organize a legitimate protest, and the government’s swift response will be to label you a child sex offender because they found you using evil VPN technology. This is how free speech dies, not from a law that says “free speech is dead now,” but from draconian, authoritarian laws like this that give the government “plausible” reasons to go after anyone, which can’t easily be fought against.

💯 this, and I’m once again begging libertarian-type tech people to understand that a “VPN ban” or Chat Control doesn’t mean they’re going to prevent you specifically from using a VPN or an encrypted messenger. It means when they catch you doing so, they’ll use that fact itself

Nothing feels better than tinkering and satisfying your curiosity with no specific goal or formal business objective in mind. Every good thing comes from a place of play, imagination, intrigue, genuine desire to learn. What a time to be an engineer. I’m so grateful.

What happens if every single Aztec sequencer censors your withdrawal? You use the Escape Hatch. New forum post on how to price this last-resort mechanism to match committee security guarantees. Feedback welcome 👇 forum.aztec.network/t/last-resort-…

No better way to learn!

923 Clawdbot gateways are exposed right now with zero auth (they just connect to your IP and are in) That means shell access, browser automation, API keys. All wide open for someone to have full control of your device. Had Clawdbot check my setup: - Config shows bind:

If you haven't already mourned the loss of your SWE or DevOps mode of operation and moved on to being an exceptional architect/orchestrator then you're falling behind every day. It's not a fucking meme. Take it seriously and re-engage the curious, tinkering side of your brain.

Wavefive literally has an m.2 drawer. Did we maded it?
