The @devtooligan journey in crypto should be an inspiration for all of us. In a year and a half he went from a TradFi career to nothing less than @trailofbits . A progression that reminds me of @transmissions11 , without the luxury of being able to code at recess.

As an inaugural transaction, @r_ross_campbell refunded me the gas costs using the new `depositTo` feature. Send ether, and have it appear as WETH10 in someone else's address. History in the making.

Congratulations to @devtooligan in shipping this monster of a feature. It took about nine months, included a migration to foundry, exotic math, and a whitehat hack. It's a story to tell.

@gakonst Very inspirational, but not very realistic. In a startup you don't do what you are best at, you do what needs to be done. I'm best at cranking code, but I'm needed at building a team. Hence I must delegate what I'm best at, and do what no one else can.

Does anyone have any experience here doing on-chain tests of governance changes? I remember USDC including tests in their v1 to v2 migration, so that the migration would revert if the tests fail, but I haven't seen anything else since. Are we breaking new ground here?

If you are building an application that needs to wrap Ether into an ERC20, please consider WETH10. With it you should be able to make transactions cheaper for your users.

DeFi lending might look the same as five years ago. You post some collateral, you borrow some assets. @MakerDAO , @CompoundFinance and @Aave still dominate. That's true, and it's not. And what has changed and what has not is very interesting.

I was a notorious hater of the diamond pattern. Too complex, I thought. Then I checked out @eulerfinance , and I saw the diamond pattern can be implemented in simple ways. @mudgen 's mistake, imho, was to make the pattern an EIP. There was no need to try to force a standard.

Slides from a recent talk to Gitcoin Kernel. At @yield we aim to get the most out of our audits, and this is the policy we have developed and follow. Follow people like @corpetty , @tinchoabbate , @joranhonig and @0xRajeev to learn more about how auditors do their job.

I'm drafting a new standard to chain calls between smart contracts, aiming to supersede ERC667 and give ERC777 a run for its money. If anyone would like to help, please DM me.

If you are building a price oracle, read this article first. It's the reason ERC4626 got the convert functions. By building oracle APIs this way, you'll save yourself development effort and make less errors.
