Looks at how AUCIL's auction adds a Sybil surface FOCIL tried to dodge, and what a less-gameable design might need.

Paper on Ethereum governance's hidden authority graph, with a deterministic reconstruction scheme, because visibility is hard.

Does AMD ROCm/HIP finally do Goldilocks STARK proving? The post includes qingming-stark-g64, CLI flow, and SCALE20-27 benchmarks.

A PBS repeated-game model showing reputation mostly fails to stop builder frontrunning, so honesty needs TEEs or encrypted flow.

Ethereum scaling essay on “lean execution”, stapling SNARKs, recursion, statelessness, and sharding into one ambitious roadmap.

Reuses one mechanism-design operator across markets, consensus, and LLMs, swapping admins for enforced invariants.

Ethereum consensus proposal shoves validator bookkeeping into daily ZK-STARKs to shrink beacon state, naturally.

Ethereum gets a native UTXO proposal: frame txs, spent bits, log discovery, and sponsored spends without gutting accounts.

Native Goldilocks/G64 NTTs on an RTX4090, with qingming_fast/standard benchmarks and validated LDE domains up to 2^30.

2^27 NTT on an RX 7900 XTX, plus a benchmark plan and correctness checks, for those who enjoy measuring crypto pain.

A 32-byte beacon block field for CL/EL client reporting, finally moving diversity stats from off-chain dashboards into consensus.

BeTrueCore mixes MACI, nullifiers, and read-only AI sentinels into a governance stack where bribery proofs are supposed to self-delete.

SPREAD extends GossipSub with anonymous dissemination via local walks and inter-cluster forwarding, shaving deanonymization odds.

21 months of mainnet data: slot-0 reorgs look driven by slow locally built blocks, not some mystical ePBS law.

Ethresear.ch post on measuring decentralization via collaboration diversity and Shapley-style rewards, since miners were getting along.

Is ERC-8004 actually agent-to-agent trust, or just human activity wearing an on-chain identity badge?

Data-heavy mainnet trace analysis of Ethereum state access, plus a sober look at EIP-8295/8188 tiering and its 30-day active window.

Paper defines 'price of forgery' for Sybil resistance, then uses auctions to estimate how cheap identity forgery really is.

Essay arguing Ethereum has a fourth layer, memory, where mempools and ordering politics keep eating the protocol.

Ethereum consensus math for zero/negative issuance, comparing issuance offsets to duty penalties and the usual incentive footguns.

Native private ETH, now with post-quantum baggage: proofs, KEMs, signatures, decryption, and key handling all get revisited.

Proving execution is the easy part, validators still have to download the block unless the data also moves into blobs.

Decaying validator weight gets three patches and three fresh attacks, so the quorum math still hates you.

Essay arguing batch auctions kill ordering privilege instead of just handing it to builders, with the next MEV preconditions queued up.

Research post on GhostShard, using stealth addresses, EIP-7702, and disposable ownership fragments to make Ethereum less linkable.

Validators get to funnel part of their rewards to an ecosystem splitter if enough of them vote for it, naturally.

Paper estimates gas-demand elasticity on Ethereum and Arbitrum using clustered wallets and lagged-fee IVs, since fees needed econometrics.

Approve gets privacy, while the ERC-20 surface stays and balances move behind Groth16 and ZIP-32 subaccounts.

Uses the humble 21k ETH transfer as a scaling anchor, then walks through calldata, state, history, and compute pricing.

Ethresear.ch post mapping Claude Code's default-deny harness to on-chain mechanism design, since trusting agents is apparently optional.
