i spend most of my day talking to ai now.
i work from home, i haven’t been to a conference in ages, and at some point i realised i’m barely having real conversations with people anymore. which is a problem, because i always find my greatest inspiration comes from having conversations with new people.
so i’m running a small experiment: 100 conversations over the next few months with friends, strangers and a maybe a few enemies if they’re up for it. just 25 minutes of your time, and we can talk about whatever you want, or i’ll come with some easy questions.
i think of it a bit like reading 100 books, so if you have a book you’d recommend, bring that too.

Every L2 and alt-L1 says it's "EVM-compatible". Your Solidity compiles, your tests pass, you deploy
But compatible with what, exactly? I ran the same 231 tests on 27 chains and diffed every answer against Ethereum's. Some surprised me 🧵

Congrats to Zellic Cryptographer @JiaxinGuan for two accepted papers at TCC 2026, with one of them earning the Outstanding Paper Award!
He will be presenting both results at the Theory of Cryptography Conference in New York this November.

🥧BAKED IN🥧
Any developer that uses OpenZeppelin templates or token wizard for their token (hint: they all do) can now easily get CCIP and ACE standards baked in.
Today we’re announcing a strategic partnership with @chainlink
Chainlink CCIP and ACE are now natively embedded across OpenZeppelin tooling, giving institutions and developers one trusted foundation for moving assets and operations onchain.

Crypto should be private. And privacy shouldn’t cost.
That’s why we built Privacy Pools V2 🛡️
🔒 Shielded pools & swaps
⚡ Zero deposit or withdrawal fees
📈 Earn yield on shielded funds
In V2, privacy doesn’t cost you. It pays you.

Last week, I had the opportunity to contribute to BGIN Block 15’s Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration workshops, hosted at Georgetown University, as an invited key contributor.
I presented a live demo of pqcvisualizer.com and discussed why post-quantum migration goes far beyond replacing signatures.
My written contribution explores the technical, operational, and governance challenges of making that transition.

When you know farcaster is a psyop and you don’t know what for but you just can’t prove it

tempo is built by the same team that i started in 2021 that built reth, foundry, alloy etc
reth is powering not just tempo, but also all of our competitors like arc, plasma, base- basically 100% of the high perf evm ecosystem
still lotta work to do but proud of the last 5 yrs

We launched @untitled on ProductHunt would you take a second to upvote is for visibility?

There's a trend in software (well I might be conflating a few trends) that I think is not going to bode well for most:
- With how insane coding agents and the models are getting, it's very easy to just build "everything" but we're seeing just insane scope creep that don't really serve the purpose of the "thing" the product wants to solve for customers
- Everyone is going to collectively relearn the painful lesson as to why super apps have never worked in the west (spoiler alert it was never that "software was hard")
- A lot of companies are calling themselves "labs" as a way to excuse themselves from building *one product* that people actually use (repeatedly) but rather multiple mediocre products (non-stop launches on the timeline), few are focused on actual "research" but rather are doing sub-par R&D or product development
- Because new software/products/features are so easy to build, it's easy to find new things to latch onto (technological innovation) that aren't the thing you should care about (like retention). I agree with Nikita that technological moats are mostly over
- When everyone is gunning to build *everything*, there's massive alpha in just building simple things that are focused and well-executed

I feel like I'm missing something...how is this company still companying?
We've got an exploded parts breakdown to help you determine if malicious hardware has been installed inside your device?
We're of course being reminded that the warranty will be voided if you open it which is just absolutely diabolical.
Like I'm sorry but I don't understand how there aren't more indicators that a wallet has been cracked open and messed with?
After the data breaches, and now this - why are we still tolerating this?!
