LIVE NOW - Vitalik Buterin: How Ethereum Becomes The World Ledger Ethereum just turned 10, and vitalik.eth returns to reflect on the last decade—and where it’s headed next. In this conversation, Vitalik shares what surprised him most about Ethereum’s growth, the hard lessons from challenges like The DAO and NFTs, and what he’d do differently if starting again. We explore Ethereum’s evolving cultural identity, privacy as a core value, the tradeoffs between L1 and L2, and how Vitalik envisions Ethereum surviving an AI-dominated future. -------------- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 0:52 Ethereum’s First 2 Years 2:25 Ethereum’s Top Contributions 4:18 Biggest Surprises 7:37 What Took Longer than Expected 9:05 Overcoming Challenges 11:03 Lesson for Younger Vitalik 15:53 Bitcoin vs Ethereum 18:49 Ethereum’s Cultural Evolution 32:11 Privacy on Ethereum 37:42 Nation State Resistant Privacy 43:03 Cypherpunk vs Mainstream 56:05 World Ledger 59:09 Ethereum in 2024 1:02:23 Changes in the Ethereum Foundation 1:10:10 Economic Alignment 1:16:38 Scaling the L1 1:31:21 Ethereum’s Barbell Strategy 1:39:28 Ethereum Nationalism 1:48:28 ETH Treasuries 1:55:19 The Next 10 Years for Ethereum 1:59:35 The Next 10 Years for Vitalik 2:01:25 The Next 10 Years for Bankless 2:02:52 Closing & Disclaimers

How do you actually formally verify the code underpinning Ethereum's future? In this episode (the finale of the lean Ethereum miniseries), Nico sits down with Alex Hicks (Alexander Hicks), lead of Protocol Snarkification at the Ethereum Foundation, to break down formal verification from first principles. They cover: – What formal verification actually is and the trust boundaries between proof assistants, SMT solvers, and kernels – The full verification stack for RISC-V ZKVMs: from SAIL specs to constraint extraction to soundness proofs – Why writing constraints directly in Lean makes proofs 10–100x more ergonomic – How AI is now proving hard theorems in hours for $200 — and what that unlocks for the whole pipeline They also explore the boundaries problem, why specs can have bugs too, and the end goal of a full Lean stack that bypasses Rust and LLVM entirely. Listen to the full episode ------------------------------------------------------------ TIMECODES: 09:16 – What is formal verification? Proof assistants vs SMT solvers 18:33 – Formal verification of code: specs, semantics, and trust boundaries 29:30 – Formally verifying the Lean Ethereum stack: RISC-V ZKVMs in focus 33:02 – Extracting ZKVM constraints into Lean and proving soundness 36:35 – Writing constraints directly in Lean: 10–100x better proof ergonomics 44:02 – Proving Polishchuk–Spielman in 8 hours for $200 with AI 51:01 – The end goal: a full Lean stack bypassing Rust and LLVM

LIVE NOW -- Ethereum is Under Attack ⚠️ Joseph Lubin and Matt Corva on the SEC vs Ethereum The SEC is going after K, Coinbase 🛡️, Uniswap and MetaMask 🦊. They’re trying to turn every non-custodial wallet into a broker-dealer. But here’s what’s new - Joe and Matt are producing evidence that the SEC is coming after Ethereum itself. Sending discovery requests to Ethereum core developers, threatening their employers - pushing a coordinated effort to claim Ether is a security so they can control it. “The US is trying to disconnect from Ethereum" that’s what Joe Lubin the CEO of Consensys said in today’s conversation. He was talking about those in power trying to uplug Ethereum from the citizens. The evidence increasingly seems to back this statement. So Consensys is taking them to court. 0:00 Intro 6:35 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission vs. Ethereum 9:45 The Uniqueness of This Case 11:15 88,000 Pages to the SEC 12:11 SEC Going After Devs? 14:47 The Wells Notice 16:27 ETH ETF 17:58 Outcome of Consensys.eth Winning 21:29 U.S. Law Process & Timeline 25:55 Ether Isn’t a Security 34:50 Gary Gensler's Confidence Conspiracy 41:17 MetaMask Isn’t a Broker Dealer 47:10 What is Prometheum? 51:10 How Can the SEC Win?

LIVE NOW -- Ethereum is Under Attack ⚠️ Joseph Lubin and Matt Corva on the SEC vs Ethereum The SEC is going after K, Coinbase 🛡️, Uniswap and MetaMask 🦊. They’re trying to turn every non-custodial wallet into a broker-dealer. But here’s what’s new - Joe and Matt are producing evidence that the SEC is coming after Ethereum itself. Sending discovery requests to Ethereum core developers, threatening their employers - pushing a coordinated effort to claim Ether is a security so they can control it. “The US is trying to disconnect from Ethereum" that’s what Joe Lubin the CEO of Consensys said in today’s conversation. He was talking about those in power trying to uplug Ethereum from the citizens. The evidence increasingly seems to back this statement. So Consensys is taking them to court. 0:00 Intro 6:35 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission vs. Ethereum 9:45 The Uniqueness of This Case 11:15 88,000 Pages to the SEC 12:11 SEC Going After Devs? 14:47 The Wells Notice 16:27 ETH ETF 17:58 Outcome of Consensys.eth Winning 21:29 U.S. Law Process & Timeline 25:55 Ether Isn’t a Security 34:50 Gary Gensler's Confidence Conspiracy 41:17 MetaMask Isn’t a Broker Dealer 47:10 What is Prometheum? 51:10 How Can the SEC Win?

Running Through Ethereum with hamdi (Ep. 1) I started craic overflow because I had questions about where Ethereum is headed, and I wanted to ask them to the people shaping it. I decided to interview Hamdi while jogging because as a software engineer, I honestly spend way too much time sitting on my ass. Never been more bullish on the future of Ethereum. 00:00 - Intro 00:08 - Hamdi 00:40 - What's The Craic? 01:59 - How did Hamdi get into crypto? 02:40 - Why not plasma? 03:24 - Working at OP Labs/Optimism 04:06 - Shipping L2 Interoperability 05:12 - Building on the Superchain 05:30 - Asynchronicity in Solidity 07:00 - Predications for Ethereum 08:46 - What are the hurdles for Ethereum? 09:47 - Stablecoins 10:22 - Application specific chains 11:53 - Wallet UX 13:18 - Quick breather 13:30 - Why are you in crypto? 14:20 - How do you find balance? 16:20 - Hot take on ETH the asset 17:39 - The chains security 18:53 - Market talk 19:45 - Data availability 21:01 - Onchain L2 configs 21:22 - Outro

Ethereum is starting from the endgame. Episode 4 of TheCoordinate is a deep dive into Lean Ethereum: a clean-slate rethink of consensus, execution, and data availability. I sat down with Justin Drake from Ethereum Foundation to unpack: > need for the rewrite, > rewrite items: post-quantum security + fast finality, > endgame finality (3-slot -> 2-slot -> maybe 1-slot), > slot anatomy, networking constraints, and the "SOL slots" meme, > real-time ZK proving changing the execution roadmap, > censorship resistance with FOSSIL, > role of L2s in the world of Lean Ethereum, > incentives across proposer, builder, prover, includer, attester. If you’re building on Ethereum or trying to understand where the base layer is headed, this one is for you. This is Episode 4 of TheCoordinate. Hope you enjoy it! ------------------------------- Timestamps: 0:00 Intro: digital intelligence needs digital institutions 0:30 The big questions: Lean Ethereum, consensus/execution, post-quantum 1:25 Why Ethereum needs an endgame mindset (and a clean-slate approach) 3:30 The two “rewrite-class” items: post-quantum security + fast finality 5:52 Beamchain → Lean Consensus → Lean Ethereum (expands beyond consensus) 6:34 ZK EVM + real-time proving within a slot → “10,000 TPS” target 10:10 “SOL slots”: pushing slot duration toward speed-of-light constraints 11:09 3-slot finality (3SF) → endgame finality (2-slot / 1-slot paths) 18:19 eFP2P: erasure-coded gossip, bandwidth efficiency, scaling blobs 26:21 FOSSIL today: inclusion lists + opening includers beyond validators 39:09 Lean VM: minimal ZKVM 51:04 XMSS explained: Merkle signatures, 2^32 leaves, statefulness tradeoff 1:00:36 Rollups: 99.9% throughput on L2s + “native rollups” 1:06:53 Economics: roles (builder/prover/includer/attester), proving costs, stake capping
