Twin goals of EF: 1. Usage of Ethereum - but usage of a type where users are actually benefiting from Ethereum's underlying properties 2. Resilience and decentralization of Ethereum - viewed holistically, focused on addressing points of weakness anywhere in the stack
Replying to @VitalikButerin
@VitalikButerin and I wrote this to share why the EF exists and what’s next—real-world usage & deeper resilience. With @hwwonx & @tkstanczak co-leading EF’s next chapter, we're also counting on the community to reach those goals

Open, neutral, decentralized infrastructure must be the foundation for the future of US and global economic activity Neutral infra provides a universal, persistent value proposition to any application or user—empowering them to refine, extend, and build upon that neutral stratum to meet an endless set of evolving needs Systems that are biased, controlled, and otherwise not decentralized are fundamentally narrower - constricting innovation, encouraging local rather than global maxima, hampering free-market growth, and ultimately leading us to a more brittle outcome in an increasingly dynamic world Decentralization truly matters if we're aiming for the largest possible positive impact on the US and the world, and *Ethereum remains our best bet*

THE HUNT BEGINS IN <24 HOURS 🔥 The Hunt launches Wednesday at 8PM ET, less than 24 hours away 🔥 Huge 55K gold prize pool. Play free if you own a wolf or are a user of @huddle_wtf (pals), @FenixFinance, @bagdotwin, or @blastr_xyz (keys) - thank you to these great projects for their partnership! 🔥 New Ambush mechanic: At any point, you can set your wolf to "ambush," locking it for the entire game and setting its kill points to zero 🔥 (cont'd) All ambushed wolves share 35% of the gold prize pool exclusively. Ambushing is great if: (1) You don't have time to hunt, (2) Your wolf is under-performing, or (3) You don't think that many ppl will do it 🔥 (cont'd) You get a 50% bonus if you ambush in the first 24 hours of the game and a 25% bonus if you ambush within four days after that 🔥 Change: The degen attack was OP last cycle. We tweaked its odds so there's now a smaller chance of a 500-point win (4%, down from 10%) and a larger chance of a 250-point win (25% chance up from 15%) 🔥 Thanks to our partners and to @Blast for their support! Now let's go kill some buffalo

Important Update: @DecentralGames and I have parted ways. It has been a wild journey helping build DG/BAG over the last 4+ years and I wish the team/project nothing but success. Creating something & winning is an extraordinary experience; doing so alongside friends is even that much more sweet. Looking forward to sharing what will be coming next from me. Only upward 🚀

Big shoutout to the boys for last night's poker game! Appreciate the recap on @GamifiedShow 😍 Despite issues with the stream (won't happen again) It went exactly as I'd hoped Sam put it best - "it felt like we were all hanging out at a table in real life" TY @bagdotwin 🤝
