Some personal news... my tenure at MakerDAO has come to an end. It is time for me explore new areas in the crypto space. 1/4

Is Claude Code addictive, or am I just having fun at work again?

Subgraph MCP is live 🔥 You can now query all Subgraph data via MCP - an addition to the recent Token API release. This is a major unlock for: ✨ AI agents that need real-time smart contract data. 🔤 Natural language interfaces powered by Claude, Cursor, Cline & more ⚒️ Devs building dapps that involve onchain activity tracking 🔗 Data from dozens of new chains in a massive library of existing Subgraphs Want to pull ENS records, liquidity pool data, token mappings, and anything else indexed via Subgraphs on The Graph? Get started with the Subgraph MCP ⬇️

To me it’s obvious blockchains and smart contracts are central to this scenario. An autonomous AI will hold its funds onchain, pay its server sustenance bill and bribe humans as necessary.

I've been trying to think how a true "AI takeoff" (as in AI escapes containment and pursues its own aims beyond our ability to control) could happen in the next three years and I don't see any way "embodied AI" (robots able to survive in the wild) will be ready by then. So the only way it could work is if the AI can hack humans (social engineering) to do their bidding. That seems not only plausible but perhaps even likely. How do we harden humans against this?

🚨 DAI Security PSA for wallet providers, block explorers, and users. The L2 DAI deployer (0x075da589886BA445d7c7e81c472059dE7AE65250) for the DAI vanity address (0xDA10009cBd5D07dd0CeCc66161FC93D7c9000da1) has been compromised. (1/7)

Not big on blocking, whether it's on X or anywhere else… echo chambers and all that, plus "know your enemy." But I draw the line at obvious AI junk people are trying to pass off as real, especially when it's just rage bait. Can't block those leeches fast enough.

🚀 We’ve hit a huge milestone: 1 billion GraphQL queries processed by Ellipfra on The @graphprotocol network in July! As just one of many indexers, this milestone showcases The Graph's successful move to decentralization. Thanks to the Graph community and core teams!

All this drama because the SEC decided to subpoena Do Kwon from Luna right in the middle of Selkis's conference back in 2021

Unpopular opinion: Brussels is an excellent EthCC location with varied lodging and dining, numerous venues, walkable distances, easy flights, and friendly people. I didn't feel any danger, though some neighborhoods should be avoided (this is true everywhere)

Turning crypto into a political hot-button issue is a huge mistake. In Canada, a party leader made half-assed comments about crypto, which pushed the opposition to take a completely opposite stance, mocking him and ended up setting the local crypto scene back by five years.

Do you hear that? It's the sound of the crypto space shifting away from airdrops

Checked into my Denver hotel, admiring the unique view. Normal people: “This view is disappointing, I need to complain” Me, a huge nerd: “Fascinating perspective on an electric substation! Time to dive into high-voltage breaker design and the intricacies of power distribution”

What are the uses of EIP-4844 blobs other than Layer 2 scaling?

Could be the return of the onchain DEX order books. Store buy and sell orders in blobs along with a Permit signature. Orders are good for hours/days anyways

We've already had multiple large defi projects asking us if we will store blobs longer than 18 days. This is gonna be so much fun.
