Congratulations @c_spelliscy! 🎉 The job openings are huge opportunities for fellow policy geeks. Very interesting to see global policy efforts taking shape at the EF and what this could unlock regionally.
I’m excited to announce that I’ve joined the Ethereum Foundation to build and lead the Global Policy Strategy team, and we’re hiring! Our team will proactively identify, track, and engage on key global policy developments that create risks or opportunities for Ethereum’s long-term growth and impact. We’re currently looking to add three new team members: → APAC Policy Manager → Associate (2 roles) We’re seeking a Policy Manager in APAC with deep experience in advocacy and a strong track record of coordinating across key crypto and policy stakeholders in the region. We’re also hiring Associates who are talented generalists; who can move seamlessly between advocacy, grants management, coordination, and research, and who thrive in a fast-moving, global policy environment. Apply 👇

Joyeux anniversETH 🎉🎂 10 ans que l’ordinateur mondial #Ethereum tourne sans discontinuer, sans cesser de s’améliorer et sans oublier ses racines cypherpunk : ouverture, résistance à la censure, décentralisation.

Pour moi, Ethereum a été la découverte d’un nouveau monde idéal, que j’ai tenté de contribuer à construire par tous les moyens : @Ethereum_France, @Consensys, @adan_asso, @EuCInitiative… Hâte de voir ce que les 10 années suivantes nous réservent 🙂

ethereum has been online ten years straight with zero pauses and zero maintenance windows. in that time: - facebook went down for 14 hours - aws kinesis froze for 17 - cloudflare dropped 19 datacenters - alt L1s…well, you know. every centralised giant blinks, they rely on on-call humans and scheduled downtime. but ethereum never stops, not through forks, crashes, bubbles, lawsuits, hacks, wars, and every kind of drama the internet can throw at it. and it’s not thanks to a CEO or a hotline. it’s not because someone saved it. it’s because we all did. devs, stakers, researchers, users, millions of us, scattered across the world, choosing to show up, block after block, year after year. while banks fail, clouds go dark and servers get patched, ethereum keeps going. we keep going. ten years online. forever to go.

you should really be a decentralization maximalist because it's the only cool thing about crypto. the only way to not sound lame articulating any of this is as the unstoppable coordination of internet money; anything else and you just sound like the guy who uses ubuntu

Ethereum is a sociotechnical polycentric transglobal fraternity of multivariant stakeholders ignited by a rich array of cultural imaginaries but which are ultimately bound together by the ineliminable core of the Cypherpunk values of decentralisation, permissionlessness, censorship resistance and credible neutrality, themselves philosophically secured by a confident Social Layer, in particular the ideologically-driven parts of the wider community. - @post_polar_

La commu @ethereum se réveille. Cela me fait plaisir de voir le narratif "carburant digital" mis en avant comme ça. Plus qu'à le traduire 😄cc @Ethereum_France
The stars are aligning for ETH: ⏩ $1.25bn ETF inflows over 19 straight days ⏩ Adoption as a treasury asset ⏩ Price turnaround ( 100% from lows) Institutions are noticing. We’ve come together to tell the world why. Introducing ETH: Digital Oil for the Digital Economy (1/7)

My hot take activist thesis on crypto. Plz reality check this for me 👇 i dont think crypto has failed, quite the opposite. Crypto exists and works and is sufficiently integrated to be resilient. The tech will be activated and massively used in disruptive ways when the actual need for it arises, and that day will come given the trajectory of current politics. We will then see an increase in development and innovation that addresses ux painpoints that will make it safe and easy to use and deliver its permissionless censorship resistant benefits. Bonus point, it will be private too. Many tools will be shipped by established players. Much more will be forked and adapted out of the "compliance" checks used by these regulated players, by hackers who don't care about compliance with US or EU regulations. Crypto will then be split into (i) regtech clearnet type blockchain lead by the US market, and (ii) the rest: china sanctioned countries and developing markets user base. This separation will fuel creative innovation since the lack of a unified space will make it easier to opt in a sandbox mindset. We will see more tools that focus on separating the regtech side from the rest, while both benefit from each other's opensource, forkable, inovation. We won't be using biometrics to log in to our sandboxed wallets, nor will we talk about that side of the chain on twitter. Currently, we must prepare for that time of acceleration, by resting, learning, identifying allies carefully based on actions over time (cute/acc alignment), building crossdisciplinary and crosscultural communities of hackers, cybernetics and trad philosophers, preppers, artists, technologists, advocates and activists of all domains, building libraries and indexes, and most importantly, putting systems into place that will allow us individually and as groups to do what we need to do when the time comes, safely, and ideally, in a playful way Ty for making it that far <3
