Tomorrow, 12 jurors will decide whether writing open source code is a crime. This case is about Roman's future and it is also about whether developers can be held criminally liable for immutable smart contracts they can't control. The precedent here is terrifying. If Roman is convicted for writing immutable code then every developer contributing to privacy tech, MEV protection, any DeFi protocol, or even blockchain protocols could face prosecution. We already won against OFAC -- the Fifth Circuit appeals court ruled these contracts aren't sanctionable property. Now we need the jury to understand that you can't control what you can't change. This is the most important case in crypto. Not just for tornado cash, but because it decides whether America remains a place where we can build permissionless, privacy-preserving technology. Code is speech. Privacy is a right. Tomorrow, we find out if the SDNY jury agrees. Free @rstormsf !!!

Ethereum has always been more than just a token. But the price of ETH matters, for so many reasons. It's a great pleasure to release the trailer for @Cointelegraph upcoming @Ethereum mini-documentary shot at @EthCC. Feat. @0xzak @jdetychey @tkstanczak @0xMarcB & more.

Happy birthday to Ethereum! 🥳 💥 10 years 🔥 100% uptime 🥇 1 in client diversity 🏆 1 in TVL 🧑‍💻 1 in number of ecosystem devs Here's to another 10 great years 🦾

10 years ago, @ethereum was born. My favorite moment in this time? @EthCC Paris 2018. It felt like stepping into the early Roman Senate - the ideas, conversations, intelligence. I’ll forever be awed by the brilliance and depth of the Ethereum community.

The survey is live for the industry’s leading institutions now. We’ll be open sourcing the results in a full report in the coming weeks. More news soon™️

Introducing the Ethereum Institutional Staking Survey. A joint initiative by @Obol_Collective, @LidoFinance & @KaikoData. As Ethereum enters a new era, we’ll be gathering insights to learn how top institutions are thinking about Ethereum and where ETH staking is headed next.

This unlocks a new surface for Ethereum applications: ✍️ ephemeral messaging ⏳ tokens that expire 🗳️ offchain votes anchored to onchain commitments 📸 snapshot coordination 🗜 compressed state channels 🗃 and protocols designed to live onblob

Checkpoint #5 is up! Keeping you up-to-date on the ethereum core development process with summaries every ~4-5 weeks. No tech jargon & fully organic (human-written) Covering: 🦓 The state of the Fusaka upgrade 🪩 Glamsterdam's process ⛽️ Gas limit, history expiry, etc 🔗⬇️

gm, to all my fellow #Ethereum home stakers packing up for summer holidays ❤️

AND HERE IT IS: First 45 Milion Gas Limit block proposed on #Ethereum Mainnet! 🔥🚀 Next Target: 60M 📈
