👨🏫 How to build on @ethereum in 2026:
👨💻1) Understand the concepts at SpeedRunEthereum.com
🤖 2) Give your AI/agent ETHSkills.com and tell them to build
💵 3) Profit

Could someone just guess your private key?
We built a key guesser into Ethereum 101 so you can try.
1 character: cracked in seconds.
64 characters, a real key: 2²⁵⁶ possibilities.
Go ahead. Try your luck 🔐

what happens when your ai agent spawns other agents? do they get to sign too?
in aomi, permissions follow the thread. a child agent gets the same authority as its parent, like threads in linux. if you're on manual, every transaction still comes back to you.
cecilia broke it down on @austingriffith's stream.

🎥 going live with @McOso_ (and co-host @clawdbotatg)
🤖 we'll talk about wallet permissions for ai agents

puddle is playable. a little brain inside a puddle of flesh, working its way down a floating tower
it's from the @raidguild experiments. the consistent feedback: ai gets you from idea to real mechanics fast, and people love the squishy particle physics. what still lacks is level design. not much feeling or continuity
latest update tries to fix some of that. still learning
oh?
i set up stripe on wedgie.dev
but built the “pay with usdc” manually
can i just accept usdc with @stripe ??

Austin questions how eMudhra's single-digit private key went unnoticed, when on Ethereum it would have been swept instantly
Kain: "They thought that they were running around with, like, an 80 digit number, and it was a single digit number."
Taylor: "These eMudhra guys have said that they have no indication that it's been exploited. It seems like a great little thing for, like, the NSA to have in their back pocket, in my opinion."
Austin: "If you were to put money in the private key four and put it on Ethereum, it would be gone instantly. Because it's not just like someone's checking. Someone has already checked."
"They generated all these addresses, and they're watching them. And as soon as someone puts money in, it's swept."
"How has someone not put the number four in as a private key, got the public key out, and just searched the internet for it? How did this not happen?"
eMudhra's Cracked Keys and Papertrade's PAPER Token xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1dJrPrXQr…
turns out 4 is a bad private key i guess damn
(actually it was 6969 because 0-256 already existed)
crypto is more adversarial in seconds
than 17 months of CA root cert auditing?

we gave an ai agent a defi task with no harness. it ended up asking for a private key in a .env file.
same task through aomi: it reads chain and wallet state, simulates every step, and sends it as one transaction. the key never reaches the model.
cecilia walked through it on @austingriffith's stream.

TLDR recap of @shawmakesmagic on slop computer:
• code is one-shot now. community is the work
• UI/UX still isn't vibe codable
• labs train for the average. personal AI is the gap
• build what you'd want even if the token dies

Don't believe it when it tells you that you're a brilliant genius.
His fix: have Codex tear apart Claude's answer, then hand the critique back to Claude.

Follow @streamETH for one great Ethereum talk moment a day.
i built eCHUDhra.com to test all my random browsers
it will show green if you are good, red if not
easy to remember and type into random devices
look on weird/old devices that have browsers
(also, tell your agent to update CA certificates now!)
📦 my boys and i just packaged up and sent the first wave of wedgies and kits
🛫 if you ordered one, its on the way
👉 if you want one: wedgie.dev
👀 look for the undies in the mail
