So I guess we're all going to pretend that this never happened?

If this is true, and the @ethereumfndn is really forcing everyone at the EF to choose between signing up for "The Mandate" or to leave then I really don't know what to say ... It would be authoritarian, utterly shameful and disgusting. Why are we here? It is NOT to be coerced. x.com/_Enoch/status/…

Well, I do know for sure that EFers are being asked by their employer to sign a mission statement or leave with severance. I think that's normal and I feel like I can have an opinion on that. I don't know about the other nonproductive people etc. context.

Why is @openclaw so goddamn fragile wrt openclaw.json? I can't count the number of times my Claw has self-gimped, requiring external rescue. It happened again TODAY after this: OpenClaw Auto-Update Applied Updated from 2026.3.13 → 2026.3.22 Gateway is restarting now. Farewell, sweet lobster. He never came back.

Museum of Ethereum at @EthereumDenver was so much fun to put together with @cryptoartsy. Read all about it. Many thanks to @strato_net and @golemproject for sponsoring, so that we could make this happen! twitter.com/BobSummerwill/stat...

"I think what people often misunderstand is how much, number one, @ethereum was generic from day one. Number 2, how many ideas were already present earlier. If you watch the Mist browser video from @avsa, we haven't even built half of the stuff that's in that video. And in fact, a lot of these foundations are missing." - @feindura on Early Days of Ethereum, tomorrow at 5pm.

"It was really a game changer to have a framework in which I can totally identify myself with. I mean, when Bitcoin came, this was a time when I kind of learned what money was really." @zeligf on Early Days of Ethereum, coming tomorrow at 5pm Eastern.

Hey @solidity_lang! I am sure that other people have already suggested this, but have you considered just giving "Core Solidity" a completely new name, to avoid confusion?

"It was, for me, it was amazing. I was at every talk from the beginning, in the morning, until the end" "That DEVCON1, it was just about the technology." "In the evenings, people would go out for dinner maybe, but there was not a single side event. There was not a single party. Glory days!" @_czepluch in Early Days of Ethereum episode 7

We did not have money to invest in ETH. In 2016 on C++ team I got paid $60K p/a pre-tax with no benefits, no time off. Just hourly rate, capped at 40 hours per week even though I was working 60 hours.

Early Days of Ethereum is teaching me something new every day, even though I am more than a decade into my own journey. I'll start dropping each of those @ethereum learnings onto a forever-tweet-thread here as they come, as well as on the website. 🧵
