this is completely ridiculous
besides the already huge list of 200,000 affected contracts in ethereum/repricing-impact, i found multiple methodological issues that make it miss many more.
it affects deployment and operation of several high profile protocols, not just some random devs misusing opcodes that were given to them.
i shared my findings privately with chainsecurity and i refuse to participate in this clownery
We should continue towards Glam activation asap.
A lot of research went into Glam's strategy to increase opcode gas prices for state creation.
It seems fair to say that the timing of this debate is irrelevant as to its correctness or rightness for eth and our users... Yet, why did some of us (eg. quoted author who is an ef board member) only start looking in detail at Glam EIPs eg. after testnet forks started? This isn't a personal attack, it's an observation that there's a collective responsibility-- for OP, for me, for all of us-- to steward fork strategy at the right times in the process.
imo ethereum's commitments to apps do not extend to gas pricing, or to total ETH fee levels, or to USD fees. And also not to opcode pricing or gas introspection that depends on those prices. We guarantee maximally credibly neutral, maximally live access to the correct state transition function. Those guarantees imply that we always use a neutral pricing mechanism to clear congestion wherever possible. However, pricing opcodes can't use a neutral mechanism, we need to pick magic number opcode gas prices. Some of our best people researched this extensively and picked updated magic numbers, and that's something imo we should stick with now and continue our larger plans that are on track to grow to global ubiquity.
The good news and practical reality may be that the explosion of blockspace supply from 60M to 200M gas limit seems likely to absolutely crater the L1 gas price. It will take time for demand to grow to meet the new supply, including from net new entrants (eg. GENIUS and institutions), induced demand from lower prices, and the coming next gen of return-to-mainnet-type eth native apps.
By the time L1 blockspace demand catches up, we will be exploding supply again as we get closer to the full lean eth vision. That's eth's vision: postquantum and postAI ETH SoV, supported by ethereum's hypergrowing capacity, which is supported by best-in-class security and formal verification.
Looking back, it's unfortunate that we provided these affected contracts with a footgun that has put them in the situation where they were *able* to rely on fake guarantees that ethereum never promises (afaik, essentially just gas introspection). We're sorry.
imo it's time to roll forward on this. Let's do what we can in an appropriately scoped capacity for the affected contracts, then activate Glam asap, and continue our excellent progress towards global ubiquity.
it's all so tiresome
The level brazenness from Pumpfun and their leadership is just confounding atp.
Here’s Ansem amplifying one of the accounts thats part of Pumpfun’s network of bots/ botnets which control sentiment/ speech/ discourse here on X/ CT.
This is how it works. These accounts are created or purchased, then they post a stream of automated content generated by an LLM based on a dataset.
Just like you see here, they start at zero, and then Pumpfun’s leadership “seed” the accounts by engaging with them/ amplifying them, etc. (You’d be surprised how many followers a single retweet or comment from someone like Ansem will get you.)
These days people are more aware- so, many of these accounts will start off posting negative content about Pumpfun and positive content about their competitors to give them “culpable deniability” since no one follows them anyways- and then once Pumpfun leadership/ KOLs have seeded them with some followers, they will start shifting to pro pumpfun propaganda and attacking their competitors instead.
Ansem has been seeding these accounts for quite some time now, in fact, his coin $ANSEM was the most widely amplified coin by this network ever- and there are very few authentic, human bull posters or bag workers posting about his coin outside of these accounts.
This same network has smeared and attacked myself, @cz_binance @BrianArmstrong @VitalikButerin @fomo @BagsApp etc etc.
This network has entirely flooded X search results related to crypto both as a way of influencing trending results as well as obfuscating any holistic view of Pumpfun’s “communities.” That way no one can identify how many of Pumpfun’s “communities” are fake or full of AI driven accounts meant to scam you.
(and yes, this network of thousands of accounts is one large entity aligned with Pumpfun)
When $ANSEM was being bullposted hardest, the X search results were so flooded with $ANSEM spam there were posts every millisecond, thousands every minute.
These accounts relentlessly dog pile and attack various targets on X and there has been ZERO help from @X @Support @elonmusk @nikitabier or anyone in a position to do anything about it.
Essentially a group of scammers, dark web criminals, black hat hackers- truly evil people have scammed an entire industry to the tune of billions- and now use their billions to exert total control over X, destroyed free speech by controlling it, and funneled X’s users into their rigged casino where they exert the same level of control over their financial movements- scamming them by using AI to make trading an inorganic, unwinnable game- mathematically impossible for many (using AI market making/ ladder bots, AI “callers” giving AI generated advice meant to lead them into ruin, etc)
This is by far the most absurdly criminal operation imaginable. I'm in disbelief at how this is even happening or how things ever got this bad.

Banks arguably has the best vision for the future
In Ian Banks' Culture books, the Culture is a civilization of compute abundance. Each General System Vehicle is a loose sandbox environment practicing different ideologies, and citizens freely move between ships to experience different lifestyles.
Want communal life? There's a ship. Ultra-orthodox religion? Another. Beach chilling? One famous for its beaches.
With enormous compute, you don't need to trade off who decides the trajectories. Just launch another docker station for another rollout. In that world, your autonomy is backed by the compute.
prescient
L1s are failing because they try to be Apple when they should be TSMC.
If you want to attract the most valuable financial apps, stay unaligned. Build the fastest, cheapest, most decentralized "foundry" and let the best apps win.
The moment a foundation starts picking "ecosystem favorites," they become a competitor, not an infrastructure.
Be the factory. Not the designer

Big milestone for xU3O8.
Zuri-Invest, a Swiss-regulated asset manager with decades of experience across precious and base metals, will be using @uranium_io as the underlying asset for its Tracker certificate on Physical Uranium.
In a market where uranium trades in 100,000 lb lots and physical settlement can take 10-15 days, xU3O8 introduces an efficient layer of tradability while preserving the link to the underlying physical uranium.
Built with partners and service providers @GenTwoAG and @ArchaxEx - this is a notable institutional validation of xU3O8 and what tokenization can unlock for commodity markets.
Holding the Tracker does not give investors ownership of xU3O8. Their rights are governed by the Tracker’s product documents.

this is the trend
Revolut CTO got costs down to 30 cents every million tokens using self-hosted open-source GLM model @ 1/10th the cost of using OpenAI/Anthropic
Btw there is also a AI Engineering YT talk vid Posted 4 days ago where David Abitbol, using data from 2000 engineers talks bout 60-70% faster delivery @ a tenth of labs cost.
He covers GPUs needed, latency targets , tuning that made the hardware 88% faster, and how it’s EU-compliant.
