Crypto doesn't reward fundamentals. It rewards attention. So what does that say about how investors, like Warren Buffett, would fare today? In this week's Bits + Bips, the crew dissects what's really behind this rally, why Ethereum's sentiment problem may run deeper than roadmap delays, and how the stablecoin bill turned into a political tug of war. Plus: Apple and NFTs: why this matters more than people think Whether tariffs are about politics or actual policy Why Bessent is “the best” in the Trump administration And why Buffett's era may be ending, with Portnoy rising in his place

Starknet is coming to Bitcoin with one of the biggest breakthroughs in Bitcoin scaling: STARK verifiers natively on Bitcoin. In a recent conversation with Eli Ben-Sasson from StarkWare, we got a closer look at how they're working to bring STARK verifiers to Bitcoin, something that hasn't been possible until now. Our discussion was centered around giving the Bitcoin network new capabilities, thanks to the potential reintroduction of OP__CAT, a simple but powerful opcode that will enable advanced computational functions on Bitcoin. Eli talked us through their exploration of integrating Bitcoin with Ethereum, envisioning a future where Starknet can settle transactions across both chains simultaneously. This could open up a new world of possibilities, allowing users to leverage the strengths of both ecosystems while choosing their preferred data availability layer on a transaction basis. Eli also touched on some of the broader implications of these developments. From the shifting political landscape around Bitcoin, with discussions about OP__CAT gaining traction, to the challenges of maintaining security and decentralization as the network grows more complex. We asked Eli about his broader vision of immutability at the base layer of Bitcoin and Ethereum vs. improving better technology. He talked deeply about the challenges ahead, from governance issues to the risk of centralization, as well as his and the entire Starknet community's commitment to building a more open and decentralized future. Eli emphasized that this is a journey that will take years, if not decades, to fully realize. This has been one of, if not the biggest breakthroughs in the ongoing Bitcoin scaling space race. We really enjoyed this conversation as it started off quite technical and ended up philosophical. The Rollup Website: https://therollup.co/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1P6ZeYd..

Back in 2014, Eli Ben-Sasson co-authored the Zerocash paper, which proposed a ZK SNARK system that creates anonymous Bitcoin payments. Around the same time, he also spoke about the compression benefits of zero-knowledge proofs – a full Bitcoin node can be synced within seconds just by verifying against a valid proof. More recently, he became interested in STARKs and built a company around this cryptographic breakthrough. If SNARKs require a trusted setup, then STARKs are a major leap towards trust minimization. If Bitcoin activates the OP_CAT soft fork, then this ZK rollup scheme also becomes possible to enable great privacy and low-sized transactions.

As if we needed another reason to be bullish on Bitcoin in 2024, QED is poised to catapult Bitcoin to a new level of utility. Carter Feldman joins the Pirate Pod to discuss QED and the promise it brings to the future of Bitcoin-based applications by supporting all dApps (such as AMMs, stable coins, and more) but also horizontally scalable applications and what that means. The conversation explores how QED is harnessing the magic of ZK Proofs, navigating the balancing act for Bitcoin developers who do not like ordinals and for the community to grown what is possible on Bitcoin, creating ability to write contracts in one language that are composable with a contract in another language, and more. QED has also launched the L20 Consortium alongside key players such as Starkware, ZKLink, Mina and more. The industry group is setting the standards for Bitcoin's native execution layer that will make Bitcoin Layer 2s (and its dApps) as accessible as Ethereum dApps are for Ethereum users. Learn more about what is coming next - including TestNet and an abundance of opportunity. Disclaimer: The views discussed in this conversation are the views of the individuals, and not of Arrington Capital.

We cover the origins of Starkware and how its culture has evolved, there's also a ton of Starkware Project Alpha on this episode so stay tuned. ----

Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Fountain, Overcast, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Pandora, Castbox, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform.

Today I am speaking with Uri Kolodny, Co-Founder at StarkWare, the pioneering team behind Starknet, a Layer 2 solution designed to tackle Ethereum's scalability challenges. Starknet is a Validity Rollup that offers boundless scalability while upholding Ethereum's security and decentralization principles.It's important to note that Uri has been serving as StarkWare's CEO, though he recently shared his decision to step down from this role, as mentioned in his public statement on social media and other platforms. I'd like to clarify that this interview with Uri was conducted prior to his announcement. During our conversation, Uri displayed remarkable kindness and thoughtfulness, and I extend my best wishes to him and his family during this time.My motivation for this interview stems from the fact that, much like last week's conversation with Maarten Henseksns at Astar, Starknet is actively pursuing support on The Graph Network through the Chain Integration Process. Similar to Astar, support for Starknet is expected sometime soon!This interview proved to be both insightful and enjoyable. Uri's brilliance shines through as we explore topics such as entrepreneurship, the significance of Layer 2 solutions, an in-depth understanding of Starknet and its distinctive features, and, of course, the eagerly anticipated integration with The Graph.Show Notes and TranscriptsThe GRTiQ Podcast takes listeners inside web3 and The Graph (GRT) by interviewing members of the ecosystem.  Please help support this project and build the community by subscribing and leaving a review.Twitter: GRT_iQwww.GRTiQ.com

Apart from its numerous financial applications, blockchain technology could also disrupt the gaming industry, causing a paradigm shift towards true digital ownership, one that would create new incentive models for both players, as well as developers. Up until recently, technological barriers seemed cumbersome for most game developers, but the advancements of layer 2 scaling solutions made on-chain integrations viable. Immutable set out to create an all-in-one platform for developers, empowering them to create a lush gaming ecosystem to seamlessly onboard Web2 players.We were joined by Robbie Ferguson, co-founder of Immutable, to discuss the state of Web3 gaming and Immutable's contribution to this paradigm shift.Topics covered in this episode:Robbie's background and founding ImmutableThe pitfalls of centralised in-game asset marketplacesWeb3 game development challengesOnboarding the Web2 gaming sceneImmutable's value propIntegrating Polygon's zkEVM with the STARK-powered Immutable XImmutable SDK & DevExAppStore's Web3 policiesImmutable PassportEnforceable royalties$IMXEpisode links:Robbie Ferguson on TwitterImmutable on TwitterGods Unchained on TwitterGuild of Guardians on TwitterThis episode is hosted by Sebastien Couture.

Layer 2 zero knowledge roll-ups have initially been used for achieving private transactions on blockchains. However, past simple transfers, interacting with a public smart contract posed a serious challenge. As research and technology evolved, proof construction became much more efficient, enabling zk-powered scalability. There is a variety of pros and cons for each type of proof system, but given the impending rise of qunatum computers, we have witnessed a recent migration from SNARKs to STARKs. While the former relies on trusted setups, zk-STARKs are quantum-resistant.We were joined by Eli Ben-Sasson, co-founder of Starkware, to discuss Starknet's layer 2 architecture, as well as the upcoming update to Cairo 1.0 and how it will impact scalability performances for STARKs.Topics covered in this episode:Shifting from privacy to scalabilityZK roll-up taxonomy and main differences between SNARKs and STARKsWhy scalability is easier to implement than privacy solutionsConstructing proofs efficiently in CairoStarknet's layer 2 architectureBuilt-in account abstractionVolition, data availability and trust assumptionsSequencer decentralisation and crypto regulationsStorage proofsCairo upgrades & TPSCouncil-based vs. DAO governanceFuture developmentsEpisode links:Eli Ben-Sasson on TwitterStarknet on TwitterThis episode is hosted by Friederike Ernst.
