Okay, let's be real. When Vitalik starts explaining why instruction set architectures are the least important thing in a computer, we all, myself included, tune out. And just hear me out on this one! This RISC-V technology might be just the thing to unlock Ethereum’s full potential. It’s not only...
Meet the guy who believes Ethereum’s one foot in the grave. Okay, boomer blockchain. While the Cardano founder’s been busy making pronouncements from his digital throne, the NFT community's reaction is less "panic" and more "is this guy serious?"Let’s face it, this is not the first time anyone has announced...
Vitalik Buterin, one of Ethereum’s cofounders, is calling for a radical restructuring of Ethereum’s underlying architecture. He proposes taking the current Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and swapping it out for the open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture. This proposal, advanced by members of the Ethereum Magicians community, is a pragmatic solution...
Like much of the crypto world, the opinions are varied and robust. For example, founder of rival blockchain Cardano Charles Hoskinson is not afraid to make big predictions. Recently, he's been vocal about his doubts regarding Ethereum's long-term success, even going so far as to question its fundamental protocol and...
Vitalik’s RISC-V proposal…that’s the equivalent of betting the farm, right? We're talking about ripping out the engine of a Formula 1 car while it's still racing and replacing it with something...potentially faster. The promise? A 100x speed boost for zero-knowledge proofs. A hundred. Now that’s the kind of number that...
Speaking of grenades, the other Charles—Hoskinson—tossed another one into the crypto pond, making a dramatic prediction that Ethereum will die in 10-15 years. Is he really a visionary, or is this the pot calling the kettle black? In the spirit of vigorous skepticism, let’s take apart his case. After all,...
Cardano Overlord Charles Hoskinson has gone so far as to say that Ethereum will ‘die’ in the long term. He raises alarm over its technological decisions and governance framework. Hoskinson claims that Ethereum is having a hard time keeping up with the recent developments in the recent world of blockchain...
We all have to adapt Ethereum, the world’s most popular blockchain platform, is under an unprecedented strain. Scalability One of the primary areas of focus, is the scalability. This dimension highlights the need to process a higher and larger number of transactions in a speedy, user-friendly manner. Vitalik Buterin, the...
Bitfinex, one of the largest digital asset exchanges in the world, has commented on their recent integration of USDT0 on the Optimism network. This strategic move looks to improve stablecoin liquidity and transaction efficiency on behalf of their users. The integration is in perfect harmony with Bitfinex’s mission to bring...
Okay, fam, let's be real. Another bridged stablecoin? On Optimism? My initial reaction wasn't exactly awe. Less like a Richard Dreyfus alien contact hand gesture, more like a Frank Oppenheimer disappointed/scared teacher/bureaucrat face palm cum existential crisis. But then it hit me. This is not about efficiency, this is about...
