Still in the spirit of true decentralization, the past few weeks have been incredibly insightful as weโ€™ve delved into Distributed Validator Technology (DVT). Obol launched the University Validator Program, a pilot program designed to equip university students with the knowledge

Ethereum needs more security engineers. Attackers are scaling faster than defenders, and the pipeline of qualified researchers is too small. Guild Academy is building that pipeline โ€” 5 cohorts in. We're in @thedaofund 500 ETH Ethereum Security round on @Giveth, and it uses Quadratic Funding. That means $1 from 100 donors > $100 from 1 donor. Your small donation unlocks much more from the matching pool. If our work matters to you, even $1 helps.๐Ÿ‘‡ ๐Ÿ”— qf.giveth.io/project/guild-aโ€ฆ

We're excited to release the beta version of Starknode Kit โ€” our Go-based tool that simplifies running a @Starknet full node. With minimal configuration, developers and node operators can spin up @ethereum execution clients (Geth & Reth) and beacon node clients (Lighthouse & Prysm) alongside a Starknet Juno node. Kudos to our amazing engineers pushing this forward. Weโ€™re just getting started, full validator support is WIP โ€” and community feedback will help shape what comes next!

On Saturday, I attended the Build Afrika event organized by @web3afrika, it was a gathering of great minds and an enthusiastic community who were ready to learn and engage. I was on a panel with @SomehCrypto @davidpius10 @thesarahidahosa and Bami our great host. The panelists spoke about the growth of Web3 in Africa, the issues and how we are all offering solutions. I remember adding that we have to start looking at indigenous solutions to our problems and do all we can to document our processes to make it easy to replicate our wins. Big ups to @olanetsoft and his team. Africa is surely in good hands
