I mean let’s face it, who doesn’t spend an embarrassing number of hours a week on Etherscan. Sure, we tell ourselves it's for "due diligence" or "researching gas fees," but deep down, we all know we're hunting for gold – digital gold, in the form of utterly absurd transactions and...
The FBI is tracking Bitcoin? Even my grandma knows more about DeFi than you do crypto! To see them attempt to chase down $35 million in stolen Bitcoin from the Bybit hack is like watching a toddler build a skyscraper with LEGOs. It’s a big vision to be sure, but...

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.

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,...

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.
