Ledger just released a new update for Nano X that allows social recovery of your seed phrase.
It encrypts your seed in 3 shards and sends it to different entities that can then reconstruct the seed for you post ID verification.
It's a horrendous idea, DON'T enable this feature.

IMO this is one of the biggest and most important foundry improvements of recent.
You can now run fuzz tests with fail on revert on or off.
Incredible.

ICYMI: it is now possible to provide granular fuzzing settings for your Foundry tests using inline comments.
In the example below, the fuzzer will run 100 times for this specific test, ignoring the default number of fuzz runs set in `foundry.toml`.

I just re-watched my video.
Damn, this video is CLEAN. But has no views... hm.
In any case, make sure your frens are using a multi-sig for big monies.
Hot take, but Multi-sig > Hardware wallet
HW Wallet + Multi-sig > all (for long-term storage)

One of the quickest ways to learn anything is to try it.
Smart Contracts:
- I kept writing solidity & vyper
Running validators & nodes:
- I kept running different kinds of nodes
Audits:
- I sat my ass down and screamed at my computer for days until I found bugs

There are no "bad" questions, but there are poorly formatted questions.
Learning how to format questions well will help you when interacting with both humans & AIs

The fact that crypto has become a partisan ‘issue’ in the US is bizarre and directly harmful for the consumers they claim to protect
Do you feel protected yet anon?

I’ve been using ChatGPT to explain to me my own code that I wrote a year ago.
Sometimes it’s better at explaining my thought process better than my own thought process.
You’re welcome.

"Why do we STILL have REENTRANCY bugs??"
"Have we learned nothing from so many exploits??"
"Smart contract devs are so dumb broooo"
"Mi famiglia! 😭"
A perplexing phenomenon. But let me give you the other side of the equation, and explain WHY we still have reentrancy attacks 🧵

The #1 thing we need to fix in DeFi is security
Frequency and size of exploits is currently 2 orders of magnitude larger than acceptable levels for mainstream adoption
If we don't get a LOT better at this, we'll never move beyond niche status

Time for a deep dive into my audit process.
IMO, audit process is a deliberate plan to tackle every step in an audit, right from choosing one to reviewing final findings. Today I’ll discuss the first leg of this process.
Lets roll..

Don’t pretend you know anything.
That’s the best way to start knowing things.
Pretending to know something robs you of the experience of questioning and then learning that thing.

We have scheduled the upcoming week exclusively for research purposes, allowing security researchers to take a respite and devote time to upskilling.
The research topics encompass topics such as zero-knowledge and AI.
Always remember to take time to sharpen the axe!

Four tactics to get the most out of working with AI:
1. Use delimiters to clearly indicate distinct parts of the input
2. Ask for a structured output
3. Ask the model to check whether conditions are satisfied
4. Use "Few-shot" prompting

Proposal:
Deploy all “standard” contracts (like ERC20, ERC721, etc) in -> save the entire EVM ecosystem a monumental amount of gas
