Believing that intelligent aliens would harm human is a projection of what we, Homo sapiens, would be doing.
Believing that super intelligent AI would cause human extinction is based on the fact that LLM are trained on.. human data.
🟢 SΞR NEWS: Bitmine $BMNR added 102,259 ETH ($306M) last week to their treasury, bringing total reserves to 3,967,210 ETH.
💵 Cash on hand: $1B
📊 % of Supply: 3.28%
We spend so much time tearing each other because of chain tribalism that we forget that we’re a long way from mass adoption.
Wrong focus. Grow the pie.
Today: x402 supports EIP-3009.
Tomorrow: agents paying with any ERC-20, on any EVM chain.
Coming sooner than you think.

Stop getting manipulated by the "low gas = dead chain" narrative.
This couldn't be further from the truth in Ethereum:
📉 ETH Gas: All-time Lows
📈 ETH Activity: All-time Highs
That isn't bearish. It’s called scaling, and Ethereum is executing perfectly. Bookmark this.
I don’t think CT realize what a year 2025 has been for Ethereum and ETH.
It put Ethereum on the radar of institutions, wall streets and FinTech.
It educated investors about the SoV properties of ETH.
Don’t get mistaken, its now - Bitcoin and ETH -
Amazon just flagged me for "too many returns" after 10+ years as a Prime member and power user doing the majority of my shopping there, groceries included.
..and I don't necessarily return much tbh.
The era of “the customer is king” is coming to an end.
The differences between OIF vs EIL?
OIF = solvers providing liquidity, and solve crosschain fulfillment in the most optimal way
EIL = users perform all actions, EIL only provides gas and liquidity across all chains
Crosschain UX = OIF + EIL
Choose your own adventure.
x402 is often mentioned as the standard for Agentic payments..
..but it’s really the Internet native payment protocol and poised to change most business models.
Stablecoins and Blockchain made it possible to have micropayments, x402 standardized it.
zkPassport is one of the coolest real-world zk applications I’ve seen in a long time.
Back in 2021, I co-founded a Web3 identity company focused on privacy-preserving attestations that smart contracts could consume. Too early, zk tech simply wasn’t ready.
zkPassport is exactly what I dreamed of building back then.
It works similarly to modern nation-state passports that use NFC chips, but with a key difference: zkPassport computes the zk proofs directly inside your device’s secure enclave. No private data is ever shared, only proofs about that data (e.g., you’re over 18, you’re not a sanctioned individual, etc.).
The system also embeds attestations that a liveness check was successfully performed.
And the best part? These proofs are fully consumable on-chain by smart contracts.
Today, zkPassport is already powering the Aztec ICO, and likely to be expanded to more applications.
Fun fact: for the first time ever, Ethereum is undergoing 2 hard forks in a single calendar year.
The EF and core devs are shipping faster than ever.
Meaning moving faster towards:
- scaling L1
- scaling blobs
- solving Interop
.. and privacy.
Happy Fusaka Day
Privacy is coming to Ethereum.
Recommend listening to the recent episodes from @Bankless:
1. Aztec via Rollups (Stage 2)
2. Zama via Confidential Tokens (natively on Ethereum).
Happy 5th anniversary to the Beacon chain 🎂.
5 years ago, I took part of the Beacon chain launch both as an OSS contributor and a Genesis solo staker.
Since then, Ethereum has maintained 100% uptime and unparalleled security.
Hats off to all the core devs 🫡
2025 has been a decisive year on positioning ETH as a SoV alongside BTC.
Proof: $BMNR is 1/4 of $MSTR market cap.
2026 will be the year when ETH overtake BTC as #1 digital SoV.

There’s real risks to commit your project on a brand new fancy new blockchain.
Don’t believe the future promises and breakthroughs of “being neutral and decentralizing at a later stage”.
There’s a reason why the Blockchain trilemma hasn’t been solved after 10++ years.
Ethereum has invested heavily towards a sustain future where both L1 can scale with zk tech, while providing flexibility around app specific architecture with rollups, and bringing privacy natively and future proofing against quantum technology.
Short term pain for a bright future.
All roads lead to Ethereum
