Amped to say I've joined the world-class team @zellic_io as Growth Lead for their audit and node operation business! I'll be working closely with teams at all stages to help them build more secure protocols. I couldn't be happier to join @gf_256 and @ret2jazzy in their mission to find all the bugs and save all the money.
Zellic's node ops uniquely support both pre-launch and well-established networks in a few ways:
- Teams (Foundations, LSTs, etc.) that delegate to us earn back a portion of our nodes' rewards as audit credits, effectively keeping our s-tier security engineers on retainer
- Zellic's unparalleled depth of experience auditing protocols, core node software, pentesting, etc. ensures that when shit goes pear-shaped and you pick up the red phone - people who can fix it answer the call
- We're invested in your success. When number go up you get more audit credits and you can build more (and more secure) stuff
In my brief time with the team I've been amazed at their commitment to openness, collaboration, and to each other's success.
I'm humbled and grateful to be here. Let's build cool shit together.

Every L2 and alt-L1 says it's "EVM-compatible". Your Solidity compiles, your tests pass, you deploy
But compatible with what, exactly? I ran the same 231 tests on 27 chains and diffed every answer against Ethereum's. Some surprised me 🧵

Congrats to Zellic Cryptographer @JiaxinGuan for two accepted papers at TCC 2026, with one of them earning the Outstanding Paper Award!
He will be presenting both results at the Theory of Cryptography Conference in New York this November.

🥧BAKED IN🥧
Any developer that uses OpenZeppelin templates or token wizard for their token (hint: they all do) can now easily get CCIP and ACE standards baked in.
Today we’re announcing a strategic partnership with @chainlink
Chainlink CCIP and ACE are now natively embedded across OpenZeppelin tooling, giving institutions and developers one trusted foundation for moving assets and operations onchain.

Crypto should be private. And privacy shouldn’t cost.
That’s why we built Privacy Pools V2 🛡️
🔒 Shielded pools & swaps
⚡ Zero deposit or withdrawal fees
📈 Earn yield on shielded funds
In V2, privacy doesn’t cost you. It pays you.

Last week, I had the opportunity to contribute to BGIN Block 15’s Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration workshops, hosted at Georgetown University, as an invited key contributor.
I presented a live demo of pqcvisualizer.com and discussed why post-quantum migration goes far beyond replacing signatures.
My written contribution explores the technical, operational, and governance challenges of making that transition.

When you know farcaster is a psyop and you don’t know what for but you just can’t prove it
I have never heard people talk so much about farcaster as they have the last 24 hours.
I look forward to 72 hours from now, where I'll never hear about it again.

We launched @untitled on ProductHunt would you take a second to upvote is for visibility?

There's a trend in software (well I might be conflating a few trends) that I think is not going to bode well for most:
- With how insane coding agents and the models are getting, it's very easy to just build "everything" but we're seeing just insane scope creep that don't really serve the purpose of the "thing" the product wants to solve for customers
- Everyone is going to collectively relearn the painful lesson as to why super apps have never worked in the west (spoiler alert it was never that "software was hard")
- A lot of companies are calling themselves "labs" as a way to excuse themselves from building *one product* that people actually use (repeatedly) but rather multiple mediocre products (non-stop launches on the timeline), few are focused on actual "research" but rather are doing sub-par R&D or product development
- Because new software/products/features are so easy to build, it's easy to find new things to latch onto (technological innovation) that aren't the thing you should care about (like retention). I agree with Nikita that technological moats are mostly over
- When everyone is gunning to build *everything*, there's massive alpha in just building simple things that are focused and well-executed

I feel like I'm missing something...how is this company still companying?
We've got an exploded parts breakdown to help you determine if malicious hardware has been installed inside your device?
We're of course being reminded that the warranty will be voided if you open it which is just absolutely diabolical.
Like I'm sorry but I don't understand how there aren't more indicators that a wallet has been cracked open and messed with?
After the data breaches, and now this - why are we still tolerating this?!

Episode 1: Thyroid
Spent 50 minutes talking about:
-Getting “normal” thyroid labs but still feeling like shit
-Our first thyroid panels and what made us get tested
-TSH, T3, T4 and our experiences with thyroid
medication
-Biotin supplements and misleading bloodwork
-Thyroid function in the context of TRT and enhanced bodybuilding
-Stalled cuts, leptin, carbs and under-fueling
-Selenium, zinc and the nutrition side of the conversation
-Ray Peat, diet cults and what we’ve changed our minds about
🤝 Paid partnership
Going live on a video X space in about 4 hours while setting up teleoperation
Come hang out for a live video chat to talk about robots!
I’m hosting a video X space tomorrow while setting up teleoperation on the reBot arm
🔴🎙️🎥
Should be fun to do a live voice chat, Q&A, etc. while testing out the robot
1pm US central time
Come hang out!
