Hyper-scaling Ethereum state by creating new forms of state: ethresear.ch/t/hyper-scaling… Summary: * We want 1000x scale on Ethereum L1. We roughly know how to do this for execution and data. But scaling state is fundamentally harder. * The most practical path for Ethereum may actually be to scale existing state only a medium amount, and at the same time introduce newer forms of state that would be extremely cheap but also more restrictive in how you can use them. * In such a design, the present-day state tree would over time become dominated by user accounts, defi hub contracts, code, and other high-value objects, while all kinds of individual per-user state objects (eg. ERC20s balances, NFTs, CDPs) would be handled with cheaper but more restrictive tools. Making the developer abstractions to make this easy to implement for the use cases that make up >90% of state today seems very doable.

Privacy matters. Today during @web3privacy, maestro @VitalikButerin highlighted #Kohaku, a new Ethereum framework focused on bringing real privacy to wallets. All 8mins!

1/ Fusaka is coming December 3rd. Ethereum’s next major upgrade shows that the network can grow to meet global demand, without compromising on decentralization or permissionlessness. Whether you’re a user, builder, institution, or operator, here’s how Fusaka will impact you.

The Ethereum whitepaper was published 12 years ago today. Ethereum changed the course of crypto by giving builders greater tools - including a Turing complete language! Shoutout to @VitalikButerin, the Ethereum co-founders, and the entire Ethereum community. So many of the products responsible for where our industry is today wouldn’t have happened without your vision.
