Arbitrum, the technology and the people behind it, are generally always underestimated in their ability to move forward, but eventually exceed that expectation. Often, to the annoyance of its competitors.

That is why Arbitrum remains amongst the top rollup projects.

In your opinion, why have DAOs failed?

It is hard to understate the crypto scene and vibe in New York. Feels like the Mecca of crypto at the moment. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d be tempted to live there myself 🤣

Over the past 4 weeks, it has been pretty incredible the number of people who approached me at events and mentioned that they got into crypto because of the London workshops (2018) or the online classes (2018/2022) that I helped teach.

Folks travelled from various parts of Scotland and Europe to go to the workshops; during the peak depth of a crypto bear market.

I think the lesson is that it may take years for the fruit of one’s labour to blossom. Even if folks don’t talk to you afterwards; they are making some big life decisions based on it.

What is crazier is that crypto is a magnitude bigger than when the workshops took place. Bigger than I could have ever imagined. That era is probably not repeatable, but so much to look forward too 🙆🏻‍♀️🥹

Does anyone have the vitalik post about using AI to figure out the opinion of a delegate without talking to them?

ie ask the AI questions, send it the proposal, and get an approximation on what is their opinion.

I think @arbitrum resonates with folks who like Ethereum but don’t feel like they are ‘insiders’ of Ethereum community.

Auf @EthPrague hielt ich einen Vortrag über die ArbitrumDAO: Geschichte, Lehren und neue Vision.

Die DAO ist seit zwei Jahren tätig, mit vielen Erfolgen dank heldenhafter Anstrengungen und natürlich einigen Problemen, die wir zu lindern versuchen.

Es war eine unterhaltsame Reise, immer noch Tag 1.

In L2World:

Es beginnt eine Konsolidierung zu sehen, bei der gute Menschen aus L2-Projekten, die Schwierigkeiten hatten, eine bedeutende Akzeptanz zu gewinnen, den 'Top-Tier-L2s' beitreten.

Ein dringend benötigter Schub, um die erfolgreichen Projekte voranzutreiben.

gnosis safe + walletconnect is actually the worst combo possible, just never works when i need it too

Someone popped up today and said:

“paddy! I remember the work in blockchain workshops in London! I travelled from wales just to go to them.”

Just a nice comment to help start the day, especially now knowing they work in crypto full time.

Not sure if that experience is repeatable, but I do miss teaching. Really fun thing to do.

French man @jdetychey asking us to eat 1 bug a day to celebrate Ethereum’s culture and values 😆😂

Ethereum ist skurril und macht Spaß.

Question:

Over the past 2 years, what papers do you think are the most interesting? (Cryptocurrency related) and companies/research groups doing good work?

Trying to catch up on work I’ve missed & who I should be following 😄

plz shill will be appreciated

Do you have an interest or background in smart contract audits? Including evaluating audit proposals & reports?

ArbitrumDAO is looking for a team member, in a part-time / side gig manner, for the Arbitrum Audit Program.

It pays USD$5k per month and there are only a few days left to apply.

Not sure people realize that the ArbitrumDAO pulled off some miracles last year with bootstrapping:

- @EntropyAdvisors by @MattFiebach / @swmartin19 who left their comfy job at @blockworksres to work with DAO

- @ArbitrumPlay / AGV with @gamer_djinn @JohansonRick, who popped up in the DAO, alongside the DAO elected oversight committee.

Additionally, a host of contributors willing to get funded by DAO to execute on proposals like reviewing hundreds of applicants for incentive grants, the DAO grant program, governance hackathons, etc.

Very special year; not sure if it is repeatable. Hope it ends up in a history book someday.

Umstrittende Meinung:

Rollups konkurrieren nicht mit L1s, sie konkurrieren mit Krypto-Börsen und anderen Off-Chain-Krypto-Diensten.

Seems a bit weird that it is getting easier for institutions rather than retail users to get started with Ethereum? Especially with the rise of RWAs?

I find the discourse around the bitcoin GitHub moderation interesting.

People like to complain that a deleted post equals censorship, but the point of moderation is to maintain high quality of discourse that works for the contributors & for who it matters.

I generally agree with moderation that focuses on the merits of comments.
