Big takeaways: 🔥 Forta Firewall is becoming the default security and compliance layer for rollups 💰 100% of Firewall revenue flows back to Forta treasury 🫂 Community will determine how revenue is allocated 🌊 Buybacks and add'l liquidity are being considered
Forta is evolving, and so is $FORT As Firewall becomes the security and compliance layer for rollups, the foundation is being laid for the next era of on-chain security. And with it, FORT is stepping into a new chapter 👇

1/ Today, Ethereum's PBS market is limited by structural gaps. The Blockspace Forum exists to address them. This post (links to follow) presents an initial design of Multi-Party Block Construction (MPBC), which builds on a year of workshops and conversations across Ethereum.

As they should. You want as many people with different opinions to experiment with different approaches. That's how we get to the best result as soon as possible.
I'm not sure who needs to hear this but. Tempo is 1 thousand percent going to maximize for Tempo not for Ethereum, not for ETH. That's already they're already doing - by launching an L1, by hiring Ethereum talent.

Why DEX integration into exchanges is critical.
3 Oct 2025
If you list everything, you're an exchange If you selectively offer good assets only, you're a good broker If you purposefully do NOT offer good assets, but list all absurdly crappy assets, AND list the assets at prices that go straight down, you're a bad broker (i.e. Coinbase)

If USDM yield subsidizes tx fees, doesn't it disproportionally benefit users who transact the most...aka MEV bots? If I'm holding a stablecoin that generates yield, I want the yield. I don't want to subsidize MEV spam.

Introducing MegaUSD (USDm), the native stablecoin of MegaETH. Built in collaboration with @ethena. $USDM aligns incentives across stakeholders, letting users and apps enjoy the lowest fees possible while routing scalable value back to MegaETH.

The cheaper your txs fees are, the more MEV spam you will attract.

Kraken’s @inkonchain integrated Forta Firewall for real-time protection against exploits, scams, and compliance risks. As an Ethereum L2 built on the Optimism Superchain, INK now offers security and compliance by default. Read more 👇

Congrats @jordanmessina and team!
23 Jun 2025
I am very excited to announce our acquisition of @nash_app (fka Once Upon). @jordanmessina , @paulcowgill and @cdt_eth are joining @Chainalysis to build an AI platform team. I met Jordan over three years ago when they were building one of the industry’s best block explorers (Once Upon) and we started spending time discussing the future of discovery in crypto. Three years later, Jordan and the team have extended their vision on discovery to include all filesystems and applications through their AI client. Today, we are bringing together this vision to enhance the discovery capabilities for all of our customers of Chainalysis insights. I am so excited to welcome this team to build on the work that we have been doing at Chainalysis: leveraging AI for intelligence collection through Alterya, and easy access to investigations via our new product, Rapid. Welcome Jordan, Paul and Christian! Time to bring easy discovery to Chainalysis insights to unlock the next billion users of crypto.

Read long form
I hate giving advice, but when young people ask me there’s two things I say 1) give yourself room to make mistakes and take calculated risks. It’s hard to understand just how impossible the internet has made that for an 18 year old 2) read books. Read long form. Get into the head of an author (fiction or non) and stop wallowing in the intellectual malaise of twitter threads and competing options. You need to LEARN stuff from multiple perspectives to formulate your own opinions. Reading does this better than anything else today imho

Tough day. Like many of my relationships in this industry, my interactions with Eugene were exclusively over video chat and Telegram. But it was obvious he was incredibly sharp, focused and committed to making @plumenetwork a giant success. I will miss working with him.
29 May 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of a tragic loss within our company. Earlier this week, we lost our cofounder and dear friend, Eugene. We’re in shock. Eugene was brilliant, deeply curious, and brought so much talent and heart to everything he did. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones. The Plume team is grieving and supporting one another right now. We are focused on taking care of ourselves and each other over the next few days. This community was incredibly important to Eugene, and he poured his heart and soul into Plume, our team, and the community. We will deeply miss him and remain committed to ensuring the Plume technology he helped build continues to spur innovation and facilitate life onchain. Thank you for your understanding and your support.

Massive s/o to @altcap for getting this done. Everyone in America should have "skin in the game". Hopefully it has an impact on financial literacy too.

Solana is proving there is still a ton of demand for scarce *physical products* (branded phone, branded Ledger). Higher barrier to entry too, so way less competition.

Tbh, I don't think Ethereum's competitive advantage has anything to do with censorship resistance. It's first mover advantage, dev community and brand. And don't forget, Ethereum forked after DAO hack when it was a similar "age" to SUI.
remember, every smart contract chain other than Ethereum is just an enterprise blockchain SUI hacker moving from SUI into ETH because Ethereum is actually censorship-resistant

Decentralization ≠ censorship resistance. Both are a spectrum, and the market (end users) will ultimately tell you what it prefers. 99.999% of end users don't care about decentralization or censorship resistance. They just want to feel safe transacting on chain. Hard to argue with that.
decentralization is a lie they’re blocking transactions for the $200m “hack” that happened on $SUI the mask is now off
