i’m sorry but this isn’t acceptable core devs for ethereum are making around 150k a year while being offered 360k jobs elsewhere “but that means they’re value aligned” no man. we really need to stop thinking it’s a good thing to underpay people what they’re worth

overall, my bias is to be open minded when someone DMs me. Kim Jong Un reached out and said he was interested in onboarding people to zora. I told him he had a bad rap, bad actors aren’t tolerated on base, and he’d need to demonstrate positive impact. I was also willing to hear him out. - I connected him to jacob with an explicit warning - before they actually met, sahil "onboarded" Lazarus Group, and jacob moved too quickly to amplify - less than an hour later Lazarus Group revealed that he was in fact lying and a bad actor and zora removed the profile

Absolutely wild that people are hooking genAI into most likely the most security critical program they use without it being secured against the most obvious attack vector. The scope for spearphishing here is immense and people using these for work are borderline negligent imo.
AI agents that can browse the Web and perform tasks on your behalf have incredible potential but also introduce new security risks. We recently found, and disclosed, a concerning flaw in Perplexity's Comet browser that put users' accounts and other sensitive info in danger.

Yeah, the only value proposition of crypto has finally been dead and buried today. RIP crypto, it's been a great 16-year run

I don't know why I'm surprised tbh. coinbase is a fucking dumpster fire.
theres smth poetic about coinbase sponsoring the military parade w palantir while we the people execute one of the largest protests in us history im sure bootlicking will advance the "industry" of crypto but make no mistake, they are not on the side of revolution or liberation

Justin Sun has literally been under investigation for fraud, money laundering and theft by the US DoJ for years. His SEC case was only dropped after he bought $75m of Trump’s World Liberty Project. But the DoJ has not formally dismissed its case, or the arrest warrant for him. Yet here he had dinner with the President of the United States, on US soil, and a photo op after buying $1M of Trump’s meme coin. Utterly fucking disgusting, and the kind of corrupt practices that should be instant impeachment, and the kind of sleazy promotion that make this industry look like it’s all crime and grift. If you voted for Trump because you thought he was a “crypto president” - the only thing he represents is scumbags like Sun.

I understand that Coinbase is struggling here with likely far too many cooks in the kitchen and far too little threat intel. But these disclosures and PR statements are a fucking joke. Stop dicking around and start actually giving a fuck about your users. Thank you.

This timeline is fucking nasty. The amount of shit Coinbase actively did in response to the ongoing series thefts is wild. They basically did everything except…you know….actually fucking detect or stop the thefts or insiders. What the actual fuck is wrong with you.
In April, Coinbase announced changes to its user agreement that added two clauses limiting class action lawsuits and requiring lawsuits to be filed in New York. The changes apply to disputes initiated after May 15. On May 14, Coinbase disclosed a data breach.

Looking for a website which lists differences on various EVM networks (e.g. PUSH0 support, precompiles, etc.) which I'm fairly sure I've seen floating around twitter in the past. Anyone remember the name/url?

Threw together a quick library for proving the ownership of your @ZupassProject frogs in Noir in the cowork. Noir's the easiest way to write ZK proofs plus everything transfers over to the Aztec sandbox and "just works" aztec.network/sandbox/

IMPORTANT: Because of a related issue, LPs of the following pools should remove their liquidity ASAP as the issue cannot be mitigated by the emergency DAO.
Protocol fees of some Balancer pools have been set to 0 to avoid an issue that is now mitigated and will be publicly disclosed in the near future. This has been done by the emergency multisig, a 4/7 comprised of BLabs engineers and Balancer Maxis: docs.balancer.fi/ecosystem/g…

Oh dear. I can feel the buzz wearing off. I need another resignation to keep me going. Used to be just the one could get me through a whole week. Now I need a couple a day to get the same high

Today, we were notified of a potentially exploitable scenario thanks to a benevolent hacker who disclosed the vulnerability through @Immunefi. Balancer takes the security of our smart contracts very seriously and would like to stress that 🔒no user funds are at risk🔒👇
