This week, Ryan and David unpack Bitcoin's explosive run to $111K and the macro chaos driving it—specifically, the U.S. Treasury's failed bond auction and what it signals for the dollar. They break down the Senate's landmark stablecoin bill (and Elizabeth Warren's meltdown), Ethereum's ZK miracle that could 100x Layer 1 throughput, and Texas launching its own state Bitcoin reserve. Plus, why Stanley Druckenmiller's portfolio strategy might justify going all-in on crypto—and whether alt season is finally on the horizon. ------

Ethereum heeft het de afgelopen jaren moeilijk gehad. Sinds het koersrecord in 2021 bleef herstel uit, terwijl Bitcoin die oude piek inmiddels ver achter zich heeft gelaten. Voor ETH-bezitters was het dan ook lange tijd afzien. Inmiddels is er weer beweging in de prijs, met een sterke stijging sinds begin mei. Toch dringt de vraag zich op: is er fundamenteel iets mis met Ethereum, of is dit slechts een tijdelijke achterstand? Pim Swart, Principal bij de Amsterdamse durfinvesteerder Maven11, zoekt mee naar een antwoord. De afgelopen vier jaar werden gekenmerkt door technologische vernieuwing, maar ook door toenemende concurrentie. Volgens sommigen is Ethereum juist te complex geworden, en dat zou investeerders kunnen afschrikken. Maven11 ging in die context op zoek naar alternatieven voor Ethereum en kwam uit bij Celestia. De behoefte aan schaalbaarheid en eenvoud speelde daarbij een belangrijke rol. Toch is er ook binnen Ethereum zelf veel gebeurd. De tweede laag, met rollups als Optimism, Arbitrum en Base, kreeg de afgelopen jaren vorm. Vooral Base, opgezet door Coinbase, kreeg veel aandacht, al wachten de meeste gebruikers nog steeds op een echte ‘killer app’. Tegelijkertijd duiken er nieuwe spelers op binnen het Ethereum-ecosysteem, wat de vraag oproept of het netwerk z’n leidende positie kan behouden. Ook buiten Ethereum groeit de druk, vooral vanuit Solana, dat een stuk gebruiksvriendelijker en sneller wordt gevonden door ontwikkelaars. Vitalik Buterin, oprichter van Ethereum, blijft ondertussen betrokken bij het netwerk. Hij treedt nog regelmatig naar buiten met blogposts en bijdragen aan discussies over de technische richting van Ethereum. De Ethereum Foundation, waar hij nog steeds een invloedrijke rol speelt, werkt aan de toekomstige upgrades. Daarbij liggen de prioriteiten bij schaalbaarheid, veiligheid en gebruiksgemak. De upgrades Pectra en Fusaka, die binnenkort worden uitgerold, moeten bijdragen aan een soepeler netwerk. Het zijn belangrijke stappen in een lang traject dat Ethereum toekomstbestendig moet maken. Toch lijkt Vitalik nog altijd weinig waarde te hechten aan de prijs van ETH; zijn focus ligt vooral op de technologie. Ook de documentaire Vitalik: An Ethereum Story geeft dat beeld weer. Vitalik wordt geportretteerd als een denker, niet als een ondernemer. De prijsstijging van de afgelopen weken valt volgens sommigen samen met deze technologische vooruitgang, al kunnen ook marktdynamiek en algemene belangstelling voor crypto een rol spelen. De ETFs voor Ethereum, die afgelopen zomer met veel verwachtingen werden gelanceerd, leverden voorlopig nog geen groot succes op. Volume en inflow bleven beperkt, en van een duidelijke winnaar is geen sprake. Wat rest is de vraag of Ethereum zich herpakt, of dat de achterstand op de concurrentie verder oploopt.

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

After years of underperformance, Ethereum is trying to change course, from scaling the layer 1 to potentially dumping the EVM. In this episode, Tarun Chitra and Max Resnick break down each of these new changes, analyzing the good, the bad, and the ugly.  Is this a reset that can save Ethereum's market position and price? Or has the protocol given away too much for too long? They dive into: Whether the gas limit increase changes everything What went wrong with Ethereum's economics and solo staking politics Max's view on “the single most important” change Ethereum needs to make How ETH could claw back value from layer 2s What Max would do if he ran Ethereum Whether this pivot is too little, too late Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Bitwise https://bitwiseinvestments.com/ciomemo Tarun Chitra, CEO and Co-Founder of Gauntlet Max Resnick, Lead economist at Anza Unchained:  Ethereum Ecosystem Shifts Toward User Focus Ethereum Developers Vote EOF Out of Fusaka Hard Fork Vitalik Buterin Proposes Replacing Ethereum Virtual Machine The Block:  Vitalik and new Ethereum Foundation co-executive directors outline updated board structure, mission Vitalik Buterin- and StarkWare-backed Kakarot reveals alternative Ethereum ZK stack, targeting real-time STARK proofs on Layer 1 by end of 2025 CoinDesk: Ethereum Could Supercharge Transaction Speed to 2,000 TPS Thanks to Bold New Proposal Simplifying the L1 by Vitalik Buterin Timestamps:

This week, Ryan and David dive into crypto's dramatic new re-prioritization (pivot?) as Ethereum is shifting rapidly, prioritizing Layer 1 scaling in a move that has sparked intense community debate. Meanwhile, macro turmoil hits crypto with a looming tariff-driven recession and signs of American capital flight shaking global markets. Bitcoin tightens its grip on Washington, cementing itself as digital gold in the eyes of the Trump administration, and Worldcoin launches a U.S. rollout amid rising fears of an AI-driven dystopia. Plus, Sui surges on wild Pokémon rumors, Ripple's bold move to buy Circle gets rejected, and Monero rockets after a massive Bitcoin hack. Is crypto entering a new golden age, or are these the early tremors of deeper uncertainty? Find out on this week's must-watch Weekly Rollup. ------

Vitalik Buterin is the creator of Ethereum, but he's also a true Bitcoin maximalist.

Matt and Simon discuss the crypto rally and whether it can be sustained. In doing so, they touch on the tariff war and various macro factors they are monitoring to help them with their investment decisions.Key TakeawaysThe crypto market continued climbing last week, with varied performance across major altcoins such as ETH (-3%) and SOL (+7%).Gold hit fresh record highs for the 55th time in the past year, while the U.S. dollar weakened to a three-year low.Short term, news surrounding tariff negotiations will likely keep to drive markets and investor sentiment.Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin proposed a major upgrade that would “greatly improve the efficiency of the Ethereum execution layer.”Activity on Solana has rebounded along with SOL's price, with real economic value (REV) hitting its highest level since February 21.

Vitalik Buterin proposes replacing the EVM with RISC-V. Circle introduces the Circle Payments Network. ZKsync sends an onchain message to its exploiter. And Zerion launches Zerion Copilot. Read more: https://ethdaily.io/687

In today's episode we go behind the scenes of the new Ethereum documentary featuring Vitalik Buterin. The filmmakers take us inside Vitalik's mind, lifestyle, and values — from building bunny worlds in Excel as a kid to helping Ukraine fund its war effort through Ethereum. We unpack why Vitalik skipped the White House Crypto Summit, how he handles the spotlight, and what the film reveals about his view on leadership, decentralization, speculation, and building through bear markets. If you've ever wondered what makes Ethereum's creator tick, this is the story you've been waiting for.

"There's almost no story of the future going well that doesn't have a part that's like '…and no evil person steals the AI weights and goes and does evil stuff.' So it has highlighted the importance of information security: 'You're training a powerful AI system; you should make it hard for someone to steal' has popped out to me as a thing that just keeps coming up in these stories, keeps being present. It's hard to tell a story where it's not a factor. It's easy to tell a story where it is a factor." — Holden KarnofskyWhat happens when a USB cable can secretly control your system? Are we hurtling toward a security nightmare as critical infrastructure connects to the internet? Is it possible to secure AI model weights from sophisticated attackers? And could AI might actually make computer security better rather than worse?With AI security concerns becoming increasingly urgent, we bring you insights from 15 top experts across information security, AI safety, and governance, examining the challenges of protecting our most powerful AI models and digital infrastructure — including a sneak peek from an episode that hasn't yet been released with Tom Davidson, where he explains how we should be more worried about “secret loyalties” in AI agents.

Hi Beloved. There is NO DOUBT we are on the cusp of an economic tail wind, shifting into the ecosystem of “Sound Money” through transparency. TRUE CONFESSION: I purchased Bitcoin in 2011, and 5 years later, sold due to it's scandal in the dark web and child trafficking (proven). XRP? Yes please. You're about to learn why. KASS. Digital assets? That's not your vibe. Glad you asked. It actually VERY MUCH is my vibe as an avid economic student. I will be dropping in here and there with foundational education for us to come around the table, learn from and ultimately support you in understanding your options as we move from one decline to the greatest incline in history. This may not make any sense to you - but I suggest listening and letting your subconscious mind to take it in, so when this does hit peak, you have some insights that will remove fear and embody greater understanding. This video features my Friend Rob Dunningham and Kyle. READY? Let's break down the tech stacks behind the emerging digital asset ecosystem. There's a lot of nuance and legal precedent that's important to understand.On one side, we have Bitcoin - the mysterious crypto that's been hyped relentlessly by the media for 16 years. But what does it really do? Payments? Smart contracts? Scalability? Efficiency?Then there's Ethereum - the smart contract platform invested in by CCP-linked entities, JP Morgan, etc. Its founder Vitalik Buterin even crashed on the couch of Ripple's early CTO.And let's talk about Tether - the offshore, unaudited stablecoin whose magical printing seems to prop up Bitcoin's price. Suspicious much?On the other hand, you have Ripple and XRP. XRP has clear legal definition as a virtual currency, not a security. It has real-world use cases, efficiency, and transparency that the others lack.Ripple built on top of the open-source XRP Ledger, similar to how Red Hat built on Linux. This allows interoperability, smart contracts, tokenization, and more across the crypto ecosystem.The key is the XRP token - it acts as the "motor oil" enabling fast, low-cost value transfer between any two parties or ledgers. It's the glue that binds this entire system together.With the RLUSD stablecoin backed 1:1 by reserves and XRP required for all transactions, this seems to be the digital dollar framework envisioned by Trump to keep the USD dominant.The legal clarity, real-world use cases, and technology behind Ripple/XRP make it stand out in this space. It'll be interesting to see how this all plays out. What are your thoughts on the future of digital assets?Thank you to Rob and Captain Kyle. We appreciate your ruthless research, leadership and timeWhere we go one- we go all. Love, Kassandra. PS: Share with a friend. And….follow my X Threads for the most recent real world shifts.

Ethereum is a decentralized blockchain platform that was created by Vitalik Buterin and Gavin Wood in 2015. It uses a cryptocurrency called Ether as its native token to power transactions and operations on the Ethereum network. Ethereum's proponents envision a future where the network forms the foundation for a second platform layer, called L2, where The post The State of the Ethereum Blockchain with Andrew Koller appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

What happens when a high-achieving corporate executive, obsessed with movement and success, reaches complete burnout? For Michael Sanders, the answer came in the form of a life-changing experience deep in the Amazon rainforest. In this episode, Michael shares his incredible transformation—from a driven advertising VP and startup founder to an explorer of consciousness, author, and advocate for decentralized technologies.Michael takes us through his intense personal journey of pushing himself to the limit, only to find healing through meditation, play, and ultimately, an ayahuasca ceremony that completely rewired his perception of love, reality, and existence. He describes his vivid encounters with otherworldly beings, his realization that love is the fundamental force of the universe, and how that understanding has shaped his life ever since.We also explore how his psychedelic experiences influenced his path into blockchain and Web3, leading him to work alongside Ethereum's founder, Vitalik Buterin. Finally, Michael opens up about his father's unexpected passing and how a deeply personal mushroom ceremony allowed him to grieve, heal generational wounds, and release years of stored shame from his body.Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite podcast platform.Join the Ethereal Reset in Greece:Learn about the Ethereal Reset Retreat in GreeceJoin Ethereal Reset or Book a Call Resources Mentioned:Ayahuasca: An Executive's Enlightenment by Michael SandersGuest Info:Learn more about Michael: michaelsanders.coInstagram:  @michaelsanders.coX: @_michaelsandersMichael on LinkedInFollow & Connect with Tonya:Follow Tonya on Instagram: @tonyapapanikoloveSign up for Tonya's NewsletterRainbo.comInstructions to Win a Bundle of Rainbo Products - Leave us Ratings and Reviews:(Or watch the video instructions here)Go to Spotify and search “The Rainbo Podcast”Follow the Show and Rate the Show on Spotify, and take a screenshotGo to Apple PodcastsSearch “The Rainbo Podcast”Scroll down past a few episodes until you get to the “Write a Review” sectionWrite your review and screenshot before you hit Submit, as Apple's system can take a while to publishSend the Spotify screenshot and Apple review screenshot to info@rainbo.comBe sure to go back to Apple Podcasts and hit submit on your reviewWe'll pull a winner at the end of the month once we verify that your ratings/review went through to win a bundle of tinctures!We'll contact you if you win so you can select your bundle of choiceCheck out all our bundles at https://rainbo.com/pages/bundles.

For this episode, I'm doing something a bit different. I'm featuring five chapters from the audiobook Fierce Intimacy by Terry Real. What you will hear in this episode will help you identify both your and your partner's losing strategies in relationships, and help you move from disharmony to repair. Terry is the creator of Relational Life Therapy, or RLT, which underpins all his books, courses, and teachings and equips people with the powerful relational skills they need to make love work. He is also the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship. And if you'd like an extra dose of calm, I recommend checking out Henry Shukman, a past podcast guest and one of only a few dozen masters in the world authorized to teach Sanbo Zen. Henry's app, The Way, has changed my life. I've been using it daily, often twice a day, and it's lowered my anxiety more than I thought possible. For 30 free sessions, just visit thewayapp.com/tim.

Dr. Keith Baar is a Professor at the University of California, Davis in the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology. During his Ph.D. studies, his research revealed that mechanical strain on muscle fibers activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, a crucial regulator of muscular hypertrophy. Subsequently, he studied the molecular dynamics of skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance training under the guidance of Dr. John Holloszy, a legend in the field of exercise physiology, considered the father of modern exercise biochemistry. Building on all of this experience, he conducted research into tendon health and the potential for engineering ligaments, which could have implications for treatment and recovery from injuries.Sponsors:Cresset prestigious family office for CEOs, founders, and entrepreneurs: https://cressetcapital.com/tim (book a call today)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: https://DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)*Links to everything discussed: https://tim.blog/2025/02/26/dr-keith-baar/Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start [00:07:12] How I discovered Keith's work through a tweet about tennis elbow and rock climbing.[00:07:54] Emil Abrahamsson's hangboard training protocol.[00:09:20] The fundamental principles of strength training and connective tissue adaptation.[00:10:36] mTOR complex 1 and its role in muscle growth.[00:12:06] Engineered ligaments and the discovery of minimal effective doses for tendon adaptation.[00:13:50] The refractory period between optimal tendon loading sessions.[00:16:42] Rapamycin's effects on muscle hypertrophy.[00:18:49] Protocols for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[00:20:28] Why isometrics work better than eccentrics for tendon healing.[00:22:14] Stress shielding and how load distribution affects tendon healing.[00:29:07] The misconception about eccentric loading for tendon injuries and why velocity matters.[00:29:58] Ideal duration for isometric holds (10-30 seconds) based on injury status.[00:33:50] My elbow issues and current rehab approach.[00:36:02] Overcoming vs. yielding isometrics and optimal loading strategies.[00:47:11] Dr. Barr's movement prescription for my tennis elbow.[00:52:18] Loading timing post-surgery and RICE protocol criticism.[00:56:58] Achilles tendon rehabilitation after surgery.[01:00:18] Critique of orthopedic suturing techniques and recommendation for resorbable sutures.[01:04:02] Multiple position isometrics for tennis elbow rehabilitation.[01:07:26] Collagen synthesis, supplementation, and vitamin C timing.[01:12:59] Critique of BPC-157 and other injectable peptides for tendon healing.[01:18:19] Evaluation of orthobiologics' (PRP, prolotherapy, stem cells) effectiveness.[01:21:37] JAK-STAT inhibitor drugs and their effects on tendon growth.[01:25:35] Drugs that increase risk of tendon ruptures (fluoroquinolones, AT-1 receptor drugs).[01:29:33] How estrogen affects tendon stiffness and injury risk in women.[01:32:48] Testosterone's opposite effects on tendon compared to estrogen.[01:35:31] Protein intake recommendations and timing.[01:40:11] Ketogenic diet effects on mitochondrial biogenesis and longevity.[01:41:57] Comparison of ketogenic diet, low protein diet, and rapamycin for longevity.[01:47:19] Inflammation's role in adaptation and when to reduce it.[01:51:17] Timing of ice baths relative to training for optimal recovery.[01:52:33] Parting thoughts.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week's Weekly Rollup covers Trump's clash with the Fed over interest rates and the surprising crypto moves from Trump Media. Gauntlet's Tarun Chitra joins us to unpack the latest developments—from OpenSea's upcoming airdrop to Arbitrum's permissionless fault proofs—while we debate whether airdrops are truly over. We also dig into Vitalik's “communist” joke and Dave Portnoy's memecoin mania. Tune in for all the drama and alpha happening in the second week of February! ------

This time around, we have a bit of a different format, featuring the book that started it all for me, The 4-Hour Workweek. Readers and listeners often ask me what I would change or update, but an equally interesting question is: what wouldn't I change? What stands the test of time and hasn't lost any potency? This episode features one of the most important chapters from the audiobook of The 4-Hour Workweek. It includes tools and frameworks that I use to this day, including Pareto's Law and Parkinson's Law. The chapter is narrated by the great voice actor Ray Porter. If you are interested in checking out the rest of the audiobook, which is produced and copyrighted by Blackstone Publishing, you can find it on Audible, Apple, Google, Spotify, Downpour.com, or wherever you find your favorite audiobooks.Sponsors:ExpressVPN high-speed, secure, and anonymous VPN service: https://www.expressvpn.com/tim (get 3 or 4 months free on their annual plans) Momentous high-quality supplements: https://livemomentous.com/tim (code TIM for 20% off)Helix Sleep premium mattresses: https://HelixSleep.com/Tim (Between 20% and 27% off all mattress orders and two free pillows)*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
