I love community PRs because it's nostalgic for me. Before I joined labs I would spend my bored time fixing and adding small features to the

interface. (
@ianlapham
was my goto frontend reviewer.)
But sometimes it's spooky! You never know if contributor == 👹
Aztec Connect, the first private bridge for Ethereum DeFi, is live on testnet.
Up to 100x gas savings with fully private transactions by default.
Private DeFi is here.
I literally can't believe people use any exchange that is not

- literally can't degen with user funds
- fights for crypto and decentralization

tbh not sure where we sit on the Fuck Around / Find Out chart tho.
I literally can't believe people use any exchange that is not Coinbase:
- public company with audited financials
- doesn't degen with user funds

Built this with
@ianlapham
and Zach. It's basically a complete rewrite of the core swap experience made modular. Now anyone can easily embed swapping directly into their dapp instead of spending weeks writing a custom ux, forking, or iframing the labs UI.

I often disagree w/ framing, but his criticism has caused us to rethink messaging often and occasionally change the way our dapp works or reprioritize work. I'll take it.
Constantly impressed with the people I know who view the world around them as fundamentally malleable, the ones who look at anything and imagine a broad and practically attainable possibility space.
It's scary that just a couple lines can do so much damage. In this case an upstream dependency was loaded from a random netlify url. iirc my initial gut reaction was something like "lol wtf get out of here chump", but decided to be nice and just say "use yarn"

Bitcoin fee market won't work.
Bitcoin Core dev culture is best, in spite of funding issues.
Cosmos is the betamax to Eth's VHS.
Low-fee high-centralization systems have a long term shot at beating out "better" technical architectures.
We are the metaverse, nfts are not.

I think too few people realize how happy governance token holders generally are to compensate people for quality work. I remember the💡 when I first read a Compound proposal w/ a proposer compensation line item.

Step 2) make a pitch for a new governance committee w/ a $10m-25m budget, include some nice comp for yourself and anyone you would want to hire to join you

Totally open to changing this opinion, but IMO (treasury) diversification should not be happening at the DAO level. It (like leverage) should happen at the portfolio level.

UNIchain is inevitable.
There are 3 costs to DEX traders:
1) Swap fee (to LPs)
2) Tx fee (to validators)
3) MEV (to validators/MMs)
Today, UNI holders can only flip switch to take part of 1.
2&3 are more attractive long-term and better align incentives.

When I was high school I only knew that you're supposed to go to college. I didn't know "high ranked" schools were a thing or how to pick one for myself.
In this case we received an otherwise relatively high quality PR that fully implemented a custom web3-react connector for Ledger. We have custom connectors for a few wallets (mm, injected, coinbase, gnosis safe), and I would have been happy to see the feature go in.

If you're worried about USDC or USDT stablecoin regulation, here's the solution: stop using them, and stop integrating them into your DeFi protocols. Instead, start using maximally decentralized (even if inconvenient, even if minorly flawed) stablecoins...
I recently used Uniswap for the first time (end of year tax optimization) on my phone with Trust Wallet. Talk about a terrible user experience! Pretty sure it was TW's failings:
* Fee estimates were wrong and I had to deposit more funds for gas.
* Then I couldn't get back to the

I have an intuitive sense that I shouldn't be an ethereum maxi, and that's primarily informed by my view on bitcoin maximalism's short-sightedness w/r/t utility of smart contracts on the evm vs bitcoin script.
