I’m becoming a formal verification engineer at Ethereum. My rationale: formal verification is a viable profession only in a few unique scenarios where the verification objective adheres to brief, straightforward regulations (EVM);the objective possesses substantial worth (Eth and other tokens);the objective is complex enough to ensure accuracy (any nontrivial program);and the community recognizes that it’s crucial to achieve correctness (perhaps). My previous position as a formal verification engineer equipped me for this undertaking. Furthermore, within the Ethereum ecosystem, I’ve been engaged in two projects: an online tool known as Dr. Y’s Ethereum Contract Analyzer and a GitHub repository containing Coq…

Bitcoin (BTC) Disbursements Suspended for Bitcoin Gold (BTG) Mining In the past, miners were able to opt for Bitcoin (BTC) disbursements while mining Bitcoin Gold (BTG) through the Gate.io platform. However, due to Gate.io ceasing BTG deposits in the near future, we will discontinue support for BTC disbursements related to BTG mining. Effective immediately, all BTG mining disbursements will occur solely in BTG. Implications for Miners: All new BTG mining disbursements will be handled exclusively in BTG. Outstanding BTC disbursements from recent days will continue to be processed, contingent on the exchange fulfilling necessary deposit transactions. We recognize that such…

If you continued pondering, your mind probably began to fill in more experiences connected to those pivotal moments.Do not interpret these as definitive forecasts; disregard the embellishments that I find unavoidable, and bear in mind that these do not include specific dates. I intend to elaborate on a collection of “defining moments” or large-scale changes that I believe are almost certain to occur or commence within the next ten years.— An Engagement With…

A deficit indicates that more capital exited…

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL MINERS: The network is experiencing an assault. This offensive is a computational DDoS, which means that miners and nodes must expend an excessive amount of time processing certain blocks. This is caused by the EXTCODESIZE opcode, which has a relatively low gas price but necessitates nodes to access state information from disk; the attack transactions are invoking this opcode approximately 50,000 times for each block. As a result, the network is significantly slowing down, but there is NO consensus failure or memory overload. We have presently pinpointed several pathways for a more viable medium-term solution and…
