As a @ProtocolGuild contributor, I mostly feel like a smoothbrain among gigabrains 🧠
Feel the same about Ethereum's core protocol roadmap?
Join my talk - I'll give the roadmap the "for dummies" treatment, so you can hold your own in any core dev conversation at @EFDevcon 😇
Ethereum’s roadmap, without the noise.
We’re excited to welcome @cheekygorilla0x of @ProtocolGuild to Devcon 8! 🦍
From upcoming upgrades to the bigger picture, they’ll break down what’s next for Ethereum, why it matters, and how it all fits together.

Cypherpunk Congress, by the lovely folks at @web3privacy, is THE best way to kick off @EFDevcon 👏
If you havent gotten your ticket yet, what are you even waiting for, it's FREE (as in freedom): congress.web3privacy.info
..also stay tuned for a fun panel announcement 👀
Ethereum depends on people doing the ongoing work of maintaining its core protocol. Those people need sustained support.
Cheeky Gorilla (@cheekygorilla0x) contributes to @ProtocolGuild’s funding and operations, helping support Ethereum’s core contributors.
At Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress 3, we’re bringing the people funding shared infrastructure together with the people building and using it.
Welcome, Cheeky.

Great move by @silverchat_co we've also pledged 7% to @ProtocolGuild every cycle.
So far, we have done 4.82 ETH in the last 2 cycles, and more coming in the next days at the end of this cycle.

yes! Lido was the very first @ProtocolGuild funder, critical early support for the new project
still in the top 10 of the All-Time donor leaderboard 💪dune.com/protocolguild/proto…

my view at @ProtocolGuild - here's the current ethereum core protocol political economy: 15 orgs and 32 teams deeply engaged in the upgrade process
lots of institutional succession this year + more changes to come 👀 it's critical we fund independent teams where gaps emerge!
Protocol Guild retweeted
My latest article on Ethereum institutions (past, present, and future) and their political economy:
- Subtraction and Legitimacy
- The Funding Crisis
- Succession Planning
I believe this is a critical time to establish institutions for our next decade, and beyond.
Protocol Guild retweeted
As the EF retreats, we’ll need new institutions to rise to leadership
Those new institutions will need funding
How about a state sponsored lottery for ongoing protocol development 🤔

shoutout to the first project to believe in our vision of a new independent institution to fund core devs!! 🫡🫡🫡
this was a crucial early commitment
4 years ago @LidoFinance kicked off the Protocol Guild pilot with a contribution of 2mm LDO 🫡

the broader Aztec ecosystem sets a high bar:

Each gesture in Cosmic Signature helps build Ethereum⚛️
At the end of every Cosmic Signature cycle, 7% of the reserve is forwarded to @ProtocolGuild.
It's the funding mechanism for 170+ Ethereum core developers.
So every gesture placed contributes directly to the development of Ethereum itself.
Current contribution for Cycle 1: ◈ 1.28 ETH
The more gestures we receive, the higher that contribution grows.
Real impact 🚀
Protocol Guild retweeted
We stand on the shoulders of giants. Aztec benefits greatly from the safety, hardness, and reliability of Ethereum.
We want to be economically aligned with those who make it possible.
