Greetings friends, It's been a while since I sent out an email via this newsletter. Whilst there have been lot of changes in the world of both web3 and AI, at least for AI I've been laggard in updating the AI/ML Resource Hub with much more of my effort going towards curating the over 1200 members 'All Things AI' telegram group and its associated weekly newsletter
Coming back to the Web3 Resource Hub, recently I decided to clean it up by removing topics which I didn't feel very relevant today, adapting the presentation of some of the pages which is still work in progress and adding some new sub-pages which I'll elaborate below. The Web3 Resource Hub I expect to look very different by mid to late 2026 if not earlier.
I'll be honest that in a world where answer engines such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity and many more are intrinsic part of our daily lives, many times I question the purpose/value of these curation Even some of my recent curation has involved me primarily sharing prompts/answers for a topic from an answer engine
Currently my plan is to review the content on these Notion pages on whether the previous curated content is relevant or if the pages/sub-pages should be deleted or replaced by prompts/links to answer engines. At times, I may do a combination of hand picked curation and links to answer engines considering that answer engines are also limited in their reach because various content sites are not accessible to them
I welcome any feedback on the content that I curate and publish.
eth_sendRawTransactionSync (EIP-7966) allows developers to submit transactions and wait for a receipt instead of having to poll
EIP-7966 proposes a new JSON-RPC method called eth_sendRawTransactionSync for Ethereum clients. This method allows submitting a signed raw transaction and waiting synchronously for the transaction receipt (or until a configurable timeout), rather than the current asynchronous approach with eth_sendRawTransaction where clients must poll separately for confirmation.
ERC-8021 is a proposed standard to bake builder codes (on-chain attribution / referral codes) directly into Ethereum transactions, so that any dApp that sends users to another protocol can get programmatic revenue sharing from the volume it drives
What is ERC-8021?
Fusaka went live on Ethereum mainnet on December 3, 2025 at slot 13,164,544 (21:49:11 UTC); this is already finalized by core developers and client releases are out. For developers and end‑users, Fusaka is primarily a scaling and safety fork: it massively improves rollup data capacity via PeerDAS and blob parameter tuning, tightens gas and block-size limits, refines history handling and proposer scheduling, and adds several dev‑quality‑of‑life EIPs
The Fusaka network upgrade follows Pectra and brings more new features and improves the experience for every Ethereum user and developer. The name consists of the execution layer upgrade Osaka and the consensus layer version named after the Fulu star. Both parts of Ethereum receive an upgrade that pushes Ethereum scaling, security and user experience to the future.
x402 launched in May 2025 with a simple idea: embed payments directly into HTTP using the long-dormant 402 status code.
