    In the wake of revelations about ConsenSys, I did a deep dive and discovered that Ethereum has been collecting Ethereum addresses for every. single. transaction. It gets worse - the addresses are just SITTING on a PUBLIC ledger, and will NEVER be deleted. What is going on??

    ELI5 Thread -- what the heck is going on in this animation? Let's learn some interesting MEV stuff. ๐Ÿ‘‡
    A builder-searcher paid 16.8024 ETH to build block 17195495 so they could arbitrage 36 different Uniswap v3 pools. All this happened in just 12 seconds. Still think LPs are not getting rekt?

    Flashbots โšก๐Ÿค– I like them. Their products work. Their research is ๐Ÿ”ฅ. @thegostep's hair is โœจ. I don't think of them as a competitor. They don't think of you as a competitor. But...

    The @Rook relay is undergoing load testing now. We will never vertically integrate with a builder. The relay is neutral infrastructure, and allows the user full choice to broadcast to any combination of builders.
    It's a failure of the Ethereum ecosystem that one month after the merge, there is still no neutral relay. All the relays that exist are vertically integrated builder relays.

    Excited to announce that @Consensys, and @paradigm have achieved Multiple Concurrent Employers. Our first test subject is the incredible @malleshpai. Break a leg, Mallesh!
    Update: Along with my work @Consensys/ @specialmech , Iโ€™m excited to share that Iโ€™ll be contributing @paradigm as a Research Advisor, bringing perspectives from economics, game theory and mechanism design to improving the protocol and application layers at both. (1/4)

    We will push so much economics talent onto Ethereum that it becomes the golden career path for every top performer in the field. Would you rather work on stocking warehouses for Amazon, selling ads for Google, or designing a programmable global economy at SMG?
    Smart people from academia are moving into brypto research. On the one hand, this gets me worried - the field is becoming more competitive. On the other hand, we are well prepared. We have Uniswะฐp puzzles, we have brain teasers (do you tie shoe laces on or off the travelator?),

    Real CEOs are falling asleep under their desk covered in arXiv printouts on constant volatility CFMMs. I don't even know what Ibiza is. Sounds like a zkRollup.
    if your CEO is in Mykonos Or Ibiza right now itโ€™s time to update your resume

    I need devs to stop building. I can't take this anymore. Every day I am checking and it is different tech. Every day, check CT, new tech. I can't take this anymore, I have over scheduled, by a lot. It is what it is. But I need building to stop already. Can devs DO NOTHING??

    Don't want to believe this. @0xttk was one of my first mentors in the industry. He encouraged change at @Rook and encouraged me personally, when I was coming up as CEO. We hadn't spoken recently. There was always tomorrow. I feel devastated for him and his family.

    1/ Important to note that these screenshots don't really tell a complete story. But, it's hard to watch people who are open and welcoming and available, not even being afforded the respect of being told that the questions are to benefit a rival software client.
    Replying to @vorot93
    Even more funny screenshots.

    We need more MEV drama, as a species.

    You find the file mev.vim on a laptop abandoned at the local sauna. What are the contents of the file?

    One of the most significant moments in Ethereum history happening right now. milady
    After 20 years at BlackRock and helping to lead its digital asset strategy, Iโ€™m beginning a new chapter: Iโ€™ve joined @sharplink as Co-CEO. Hereโ€™s why. At BlackRock, I helped launch: - IBIT โ€” worldโ€™s largest Bitcoin ETP - ETHA โ€” worldโ€™s largest Ethereum ETP - BUIDL โ€”
