Decided to join in on the hackathon fun at ETH NYC! Creating an ML-empowered AMM on the Vanna Blockchain @0xVannaLabs to quote dynamic spreads to reduce LVR in AMMs. Protect. Liquidity. Providers. @billionxdev @tensorfi

I am excited to share that my team zkAlpha at ETHGlobal Paris won 7 prizes and ~9k USD in total (including @Filecoin grand prize and @1inch best use of smart contracts) out of 1400 attendees and 321 projects.

I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to @Antalpha_Labs for hosting me and allowing me to meet so many interesting individuals during my time in Paris. The experience was nothing short of amazing!

Teaching GPT-3 about KZG commitments. I crashed it at the end (as probably most human interlocutors would do long before), but the ability to take in new instructions/information on the spot is absolutely astonishing! The age of AI starts now. No more winters I would predict.

Must watch video lecture on the foundations of BFT and Blockchains on a simple variant of Tendermint! @Tim_Roughgarden takes one of the most complicated topics in distributed computing and breaks it down to simple components with both clear intuition and strong rigor

I have the same discovery during my research on the protocol. An additional fact is that since @StargateFinance uses the "defaultConfig" that can be set by the owner address (a @gnosisSafe multisig proxy).

Replying to @LayerZero_Core
@LayerZero_Labs has launched, and @StargateFinance has >3B$ TVL, but have any apes actually read the docs or looked at the code? TLDR: The team can rug LP’s even when the oracle is honest with many of the contracts owned by an EOA.

New Narwhal-based project now available! Bullshark, a partially-sync consensus embedded into Narwhal. Similar commit rule and resilience to (crash-)faults to Tusk, but 33% lower latency and no DKG/coin needed. sonnino.com/papers/bullshark… with @LefKok, A. Spiegleman, N. Giridharan

The community likes to complain about the huge staking required to be a @Polkadot parachain, ignorant of the fact that the security of PoS systems are based on the value of the stake. Curious about what they'll say if the @cosmos ecosystem collapses for its sloppy security 😅😅.

当年的跨链双雄Polkadot和Cosmos，如今Cosmos已经领先一个身位了。今天回过头看波卡团队更强资本更雄厚，林嘉文更是难得的领袖，但为何如今落后？ 这背后是资本VS生态的缩影，波卡选择了资本驱动的卡槽拍卖，Cosmos则是更低门槛更开放的开发者生态。一着不慎满盘皆输。 得开发者得天下，是不变的真理。
One of the best resources I found regarding distributed consensus algorithms. Thanks for the authors!

上周Aribitrum的AnyTrust链计划公布，让L2的玩法又多了一个选项 现在我们不仅要在各个Alt L1之间评估他们的技术优劣，比如Sol的POH，Avax的子网，Near的分片，FTM的DAG……连L2自己都能整出一套列表了 我觉得还是挺重要的一个事儿，意外的在中文CT上没看到太多点评，那我就简单罗列下好了

Where monolithic blockchains do everything on a single layer, modular blockchains separate their functions across multiple specialized layers.
