@VitalikButerin Avatar @VitalikButerin vitalik.eth

Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, has been actively discussing and promoting various topics, including the importance of open-source and verifiable self-driving cars, the need for a culture of distinguishing between pocket money and long-term savings, and the significance of full-stack openness and verifiability. He also emphasized Ethereum's key property of incorruptibility, which ensures that even a XX% attack cannot make an invalid block valid. Additionally, he expressed excitement about the growth of layer X solutions, such as Base, and their potential to provide faster withdrawal times and improved security.

"PeerDAS in Fusaka is significant because it literally is sharding. Ethereum is coming to consensus on blocks without requiring any single node to see more than a tiny fraction of the data. And this is robust to XX% attacks - it's client-side probabilistic verification not validator voting. Sharding has been a dream for Ethereum since 2015 and data availability sampling since 2017 ( ) and now we have it. That said there are three ways that the sharding in Fusaka is incomplete: * We can process O(c2) transactions (where c is the per-node compute) on L2s but not on the ethereum L1. If we want to"

"My rough math based on average difficulty stats suggests that Bitcoin mining crossed the total 2**96 hashes milestone very recently Seems like a good reason to insist on (close to) XXX bit security (ie. @drakefjustin was right)"

"We need a good trustless onchain gas futures market. (Like a prediction market on the BASEFEE) I've heard people ask: "today fees are low but what about in X years You say they'll stay low because of increasing gaslimit from BAL + ePBS + later ZK-EVM but do I believe you" An onchain gas futures market would help solve this: people would get a clear signal of people's expectations of future gas fees and would even be able to hedge against future gas prices effectively prepaying for any specific quantity of gas in a specific time interval. Looks like there is at least one project attempting"

"For years I've complained internally at the EF that we do not have enough expertise at p2p: we think a lot about cryptoeconomics BFT consensus and blocks but we take the p2p networking layer for granted. I think that's no longer true and PeerDAS shows it. @raulvk and others at EF have done heroic work both at making PeerDAS work so smoothly and at setting up a roadmap that increases propagation speed resilience and network-layer privacy at the same time. Excited to see this work keep moving forward"

"If you've heard of someone that means they won a game (getting famous enough that people like you know of them) that millions of people would really love to win but could not figure out how to. The celebrities authors politicians influencers you hate are NOT talentless - much the opposite. Maybe their talents or their ideas are very misaligned with the type of talent or ideas that improve the world - often true - but that's a different argument"

"The attacks on Europe I've seen here the last couple of days including from people I've generally considered interesting and sophisticated have been getting unhinged. I get that EU has problems - GDPR clickthroughs are dumb Chat Control is awful they need to be less bureaucratic and supportive toward entrepreneurs its kindness toward Ukraine often doesn't extend well to Gaza or Sudan or other places people saying mean things about criminals getting longer sentences than the criminals is just crazy - but the apocalyptic attitude about the issues evoking imagery of barbarians pillaging Rome etc"

"@elonmusk I think you should consider that making X a global totem pole for Free Speech and then turning it into a death star laser for coordinated hate sessions is actually harmful for the cause of free speech. I'm seriously worried that huge backlashes against values I hold dear are coming in a few years' time"

"@poordart Different countries in Europe have very different policies and Europe also hosts ICC which is under a lot of pressure (see: judges being financially deplatformed) So it's a genuinely mixed bag on that issue from what I can tell"

"@MicahZoltu @elonmusk He's clearly actively tweaking algorithms to boost some things and deboost other things based on pretty arbitrary criteria. As long as that power lever exists I'd prefer it be used (without increasing its scope) to boost niceness instead of boosting ragebait"

"My issue with this argument is that we easily dismiss very analogous arguments as "naive libertarianism" in other contexts. "If one store doesn't accept people of your race just go to the other store that does; segregation was only a problem because governments enforced it" There is some value to the argument eg. I actually think cake bakers should be allowed to accept or reject whoever they please. But it breaks down when there's a whole city where the majority of locations all reject your race especially those with network effects so you get shut out of social circles etc. And I think"
