Across Protocol on mainnet, zkSync raise and more - The Daily Gwei Refuel #248 - Ethereum Updates

Transcript

hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the delegate refuel where i recap the latest news in ethereum ecosystem i'm your host anthony sosano and today's the 9th of november 2021 all right everyone let's get into it so ens is finally live or should i say the ens token so i'm sure a lot of you have already claimed your ens tokens it has been a wild last 24 hours on ethereum twitter that's for sure i woke up this morning and there was just so much that happened you know obviously the ens token went live rockapool went on maynet a few other things uh i mean i'm gonna go through it obviously on the refuel but it's just great to see kind of like these events kind of unfold in real time i think the last time that i felt kind of like that i guess overwhelmed when i woke up was

back on when the uni swap airdrop happens and it kind of like uh i mean i think i did i don't think i woke up to it i think it kind of got announced at like well i think it was 1pm my time and everyone everything everything just blew up about it of course and then it was just crazy to see the following 24 hours everything that happened and it was the first of its kind kind of like airdrop as well in that it was such a large air drop to so many people and it was worth so much and the same as kind of like happened with ens which is crazy because i said yesterday that i expected the ens token price to be like a minimum ten dollars because that would be a one billion dollar market cap which was similar to what get coins was

or should i say fully diluted value it's gone more it's gone to more than that i think the current price of ens is forty dollars which is a four billion dollar full diluted valuation so you know depending on how many tokens you got will obviously dictate the size of your airdrop but i i think the air drops were anywhere from you know maybe a couple hundred tokens if you'd had your e s now for a little while to thousands of tokens uh depending on how long you had had it for so obviously if you've got a thousand tokens that is a forty thousand dollar airdrop right there crazy right these airdrops literally change people's lives uh and i saw i mean i saw someone i think uh was mike demaris uh the founder of the rainbow wallet he got uh i think a million dollars worth of ens tokens in the in

his airdrop because he had so many e s names for so long and he's been a big supporter of them just i mean i think this early supporting of of kind of like people through token edge sorry this early supporting that people do for protocols and then get airdropped the token is such a unique and such a crypto or ethereum kind of base thing it's just amazing how how many times this has happened how many times it's probably going to happen into the future and i mean you know there's plenty of projects left in ethereum that haven't done an airdrop yet and i'm sure they go there's go they're going to do that in the future and it's kind of becoming a thing now where it's like you can't launch a token without doing an air drop anymore because if you do the community is kind

of going to be like well what the hell like where's my airdrop not just that not not out of a sense of a sense of entitlement either maybe some people are like that but also out of a sense of well if you didn't air drop the tokens where are the tokens going to like if you're trying to decentralize the protocol then where are your tokens going to and i went i went through ens's distribution on one of the refuels the other day and how i thought it was actually a very fair distribution but uh for any protocol it doesn't do an airdrop okay well then you're like okay well where are all the tokens then they'll say oh you know a lot of them are in the treasury i'm like okay well then um if the community has no tokens from an airdrop then the treasury is de

facto controlled by the team and investors and again another beautiful thing about ens is that it had no investors no vcs nothing 25 of the supply went to the airdrop 25 went to early contributors and core team members and 50 went to the treasury a nice clean distribution of tokens without any vcs or funds sitting in there and you know there's vesting on the team and core contributors of four years no vesting for the airdrop it's a pretty liquid market right now so if you wanted to sell you can but yeah just an amazing day to be in ethereum ethereum really and uh i had a people asking me about who they should delegate their ens tokens to if you're planning on holding your ans tokens um there is actually a list that comes up when you go through

the claims process and it says you know who do you want to delegate to the top delegates right now uh as corey.ed kind of says here there's a there's a list basically coinbase was number one when when corey put this tweet out i think it's changed a bit but coinbase uh actually the fact that coinbase put their hat in the ring to be a uh to get involved with ens governance is pretty amazing coinbase has always been such a great supporter of the ethereum ecosystem i'm really excited to see them continue being that supporter because we need i mean in the ethereum ecosystem we need decentralized exchanges to support us uh from like a fiat gateway perspective but also from an onboarding perspective and getting those kind of like l2 supported and stuff like that so uh yeah really cool to see them there but also the the rest

of the leaderboard reads as follows brantley.ed which is uh one of the ens core developers uh rainbow wallet.ethe which is as i said it was mike demaris who i've got a large a large airdrop there he's been a long time ethereum community member a longtime ens fan uh nick.eth a former ethereum core developer and also an ens core developer mike demaris as i kind of mentioned before kind of same as rainbow wallet fire eyes dao they're a kind of like a group of people that do a lot of advising for different projects around their tokens and dows and things like that so they're a great group abzar which is alex vander sand who i mentioned yesterday i think uh simona she has been in the ethereum ecosystem for quite a while now has worked uh on ethe bounties and with git coin and

things like that uh corey dot eth which is the corey that's tweeting this um he created the ethburn bot um and has been basically involved in the ethereum ecosystem for quite a while left terrace who i think i mentioned yesterday the creator of the rocky portfolio accounting app and a b we're going to make it dot eth i don't know who that is i maybe someone's going to call me out for not knowing who that is but essentially uh basically these are the top delegates right now i mean any of these uh choices are good i would probably encourage people not to to choose coinbase uh just because we don't exactly know who what coinbase is going to be using this governance power i personally prefer to select individuals because i actually know who's going to be wielding the power um i haven't claimed my ens

tokens on sasquatch.ether because i was waiting for gas to be cheaper at least under 100 way because there's no rush to claim it right now because i don't plan to sell those tokens so no rush to claim and claiming is pretty expensive uh i think it was 250 bucks at one point when i checked earlier today i was like nah i'm not i'm not spending 25 in gas fees just to claim these tokens that i'm not even selling um because you've got until may 2022 to claim so i'm just gonna wait for gas to be a bit cheaper because gas went crazy today obviously because everyone was trying to claim and and trade it and stuff like that but i think i'm going to probably delegate to maybe i shouldn't say who i'm going to delegate to actually because i don't want to kind of like

influence your decision i don't want to kind of like make it so you be like oh well sazel's you know delegating to this person i'll follow him i'm not going to tell you i'm going to delegate too i have a few people in mind um you know they may or may not be on this list there's plenty of good delegates out there um but uh yeah as i said like you can always ping me in the discord channel and i'll answer if you want a review of a delegate and i'll tell you if i if i think that you know that you should delegate to them or not but great to see that uh there's already a really really strong list here on on the leaderboard so awesome uh i i guess like in terms of ens going forward i think that this is really only the beginning

for the project i mean everyone's going to have a dota's name it's as simple as that like if you're an ethereum user you have to have a name that is just the way it's going to be everyone's going to want to have one i'm actually really looking forward to seeing what ens does with layer 2 because obviously registering on layer 1 is not cheap and i can't wait for them to actually be on a layer 2 where people can register their ans names there and do it for much much cheaper than it is today but if you you know it's funny because if you compare it to i guess like registering a domain name for example like a com i don't know exactly how much that costs but it's not free it's like it's at least tens of dollars i think the last time i checked so if we can get the cost

down to that for an ens name i think that's that's good enough and that's exactly what these layer twos will do probably even cheaper than that but i think that obviously no one's gonna want to spend hundreds of dollars to set up their ans like that's a that's a bit ridiculous and it kind of like turns people away so i'm looking forward to seeing what they do in the layout to arena going forward all right so ludacron from hot protocol uh put out this really great twitter thread basically as a call to arms about getting uni-swap liquidity incentives on alba trim and optimism now i've discussed this before and about how layer two is growing nice and steady but to really supercharge the growth and to bootstrap it you need token incentives now arbitrary optimism do not have a token right now they may or may not have

one in the future i'm betting that they will but who knows when that's going to be so it's really on the ecosystem projects to kind of like put some liquidity incentives there to bootstrap the growth and i you know that's basically what ludicron has done in his thread here he's put together reasoning why he believes this should happen and then put together kind of like a temperature check on the governance forum and then a snapshot vote for it as well i think this will pass to be honest it's just kind of like ironing out the details of how many uni tokens should be paid out of the treasury to to these kind of like layer 2 solutions you know how long should the program last for what should be the target you know what where are the kpis things like that because at the end of the day like i know that

projects don't want to be responsible for bootstrapping the entire ecosystem on one of these new networks but at the same time union swap is one of those projects where essentially they're only on arbitrary optimism they're not even on the polygon pos chain right they're only on arbitrary optimism and ethereum layer one and they're obviously like forks of uni swap like pancake swap on bsc and stuff like that but unisop itself is is only on those three networks right now um and and and so they have like a really unique opportunity here to put those uni rewards to work and get people to use arbitrary optimism but at the same time i don't think it's just liquidity incentives it's also uh on ramps as i've mentioned before we need places like coinbase to just do on-ramps to

these things because without that it's gonna be very hard to convince people to pay you know massive bridging fees from layer one to get to these layer two so i'm looking forward to that as well but i think that the funny thing is is that i think people will be fine paying those bridging fees if there's liquidity incentives as well and then once they're actually on layer two um it's fine they can just stay there they don't have to pay those bridging costs again as long as they bridge in enough enough value and they can just play around and stay there and there's no real need for them to to kind of like off offload unless they're going to fiat or something like that or unless they want to use some other protocol that's not on these layer twos but there's bridges for that that

they're kind of like pass through i mean hot protocols one of those bridges there's plenty of others out there like kinects and stuff like that as well so so yeah give this thread a read um i'm definitely supportive of this this idea because unisob's treasury has 11 billion dollars sitting in it right now so obviously uh putting that to use is going to be very very net positive for the ethereum ecosystem especially at layer 2. so rocker pool is finally live after how many years like five years or something like that rocketpool is finally live on the ethereum main nets um and in just two hours there was 94 nodes across 28 time zones being registered registered i think there's a lot more now and there's actually a website that you can use which i'll link in the youtube description here that lets you track the

uh kind of status of the network i think this is a really really cool website but unless you track the status of the network there's a 149 nodes now across 36 time zones and you can see it kind of like the minimum kind of like rpl required to become a node you can become a node with 16 ether as well um which obviously i mean 16th is to become a node in the rocketpool network uh it's not you don't have to use 168 to participate in rocketpool you can use it i think as low as 0.018 which is which is awesome but as i mentioned yesterday i'm so happy to see rocketpool finally live i know the community is stoked for this i know that a lot of people who have been waiting to stay are stoked for this as well just stay with lower values i mean

you can now stake with just like one eighth i mean the funny thing is you have to account for gas fees so if you've only got 0.018 to stake well it's probably not going to be worth it because you're probably going to spend that much in gas just to be able to stake to begin with um but you know if you've got like one either or something like that then you can definitely stake that through rocket pool yes you're going to probably still suffer from like the higher gas fees but you're still going to be able to get in there and i'm wondering if that if rockefeller is going to do a kind of like uh batched onboarding where they basically pull together funds and then be able to kind of like split the gas fee or amortize the gas fee across across users maybe that's on their

roadmap i haven't checked but but still really really cool to see this um you know what's funny i actually you know there's 149 nodes right now i'm curious to see what that number looks like in a in a few months i'm planning on spinning up some some rockable validators with some ether i've still got uh that isn't in e3 staking under my own validators because i really want to help the network here and and and and keep it decentralized but could we get to a point where there's like thousands of these rocket pool nodes and the rocker pool network actually becomes more decentralized than some of these layer 1 networks that'd be really really cool as well so i'm looking forward to seeing how rocketpool evolves and i'm just really happy that it's finally live on the ethereum mainnet um and the community i went in there today again in

the discord channel and the rocketpool discord channel they're awesome always always a good time in there so definitely join their discord channel if you want to kind of like get a vibe with the community about everything in ethereum so across protocol is now live so it's now live on the ethereum main that it is or they claim it is the fastest cheapest and most secure l2 to l1 bridge and they say any potential across token will be distributed in the fairest way possible and apparently all the users the community will decide who will be deciding who gets it and across says here that we are all co-founders essentially of of a cross protocol which i think is a cool approach they're basically starting from like a community first approach where they're basically like well it's in the community's hands uh we're gonna do like

a fair fair launch where basically the community gets to decide what the token distribution looks like which is super awesome but essentially if you want to use the protocol right now for any future airdrops that happen you can go to across.to to transfer usdc and uma from arbitrom to layer one other assets and l2s to come i haven't tried it yet i've been meaning to try it i just didn't get around around to it today because just so much stuff was happening i literally spent like six hours today just non-stop trying to keep up with everything i recorded a podcast with eric for ethub it was just crazy and i had a painter over as well today and it was just like mayhem so i haven't really had a chance to check it out yet but still go check it out use it i mean

obviously use it for it for if you want to kind of like airdrop farm but also use it if you're going from arbitram to l1 let's see how it kind of works there you can read the across light paper as well it's based on uma's uh optimistic oracle here which is really cool it's really unique as i mentioned before and uh across protocol is actually being audited as well by open zeppelin so this isn't just some kind of like uh early kind of i guess thing that's unaudited you can trust that open zeppelin one of the premier kind of auditing and development firms in the ethereum ecosystem been around for quite a while um has audited it and uh it's been built by uh engineering talent from uma protocol uh as well and uma's kind of been audited before as well i've been around for quite a while uh too so

definitely go check out across protocol at across dot to and check out their blog post for more details about their quote unquote fairfare launch and about how they're going to be distributing tokens to the ecosystem so sam mcpherson from from the protocol engineering group at maker dao has put out this kind of like image teasing die maker kind of like l2 so you can see here that uh optimism polygon hermes zk sync stock net arbitrary fuel are all listed here as kind of like l2s that maker wants to support and i think there was another quote tweet from this where someone else from the from i think it was not from the maker team chris chris here from uh he is he's the layer two researcher at maker dao but also um one of the people who was

involved with l2b he quote tweeted and said i'm so excited for what's coming for cross chain maker that it hurts and i've gone through kind of like cross chain maker oh sorry makers plans for cross chain before and cross l2 and how they're planning to work it out there they essentially want to have it so that there's like native bridges between all these l2s so that they can keep track of the dye supply and then it all happens and like die mincing happens at layer one so so yeah i mean i'm super hyped to see what makes a final implementation looks like for their al cross l2 kind of like um uh features i think that ave has you know as i did as i went through on the other day when ave detailed v3 they have a really good approach where they're using their a tokens to go

cross-chain and cross l2 but i think that when you keep it in the family and keep it just to the l2s you can do even more stuff because you don't have to worry about kind of like our trusted bridges and and you know different kind of like networks and stuff like that because all these things are going to be uh going through ethereum layer one of course and like and ethereum layer one is gonna be powering all of them and they're all gonna be able to talk to each other in a really nice way so i'm very much looking forward to seeing what maker does here with dye with the makeup protocol on the cross chain and crossout 2. so speaking of l2's uh mata labs the the guys behind or the team behind i should say zk sync have raised 50 million dollars in a new funding round led by

a16z with participation from other investors like placeholder dragonfly capital and 1kx now full disclosure here i participated in this round um very very proud to participate in this round of course zk sync are building amazing things building their zkvm zk roll ups and zk porter i mean they are one of the premier layer 2 teams out there right now but what i found really interesting about the way zika sync did the sorry the mata labs did their series be around here is that not only did they include kind of like obviously these big name vcs that are pretty much like in every round these days but they also have strategic partners um with angels but also a lot of different projects within the ecosystem so you can see here that they have financing from partners such as blockchain.com crypto.com consensus uh

uh people leadership of avere para swap lido gnosis i mean look at all the things that connects and the reason why you would do this is because essentially what zk sync is trying to do is trying to get everyone on board to support them as early as possible so when they go live with their mainnet zkvm and their mainnet zkporta they want to be able to get all these infrastructure projects to to support them all the bridges from day one getting kind of like uh centralized exchange on ramps getting all the default projects to to onboard and integrate and everything like that uh so this is very very smart i i thought yeah but yeah amazing raise 50 million dollars that's going to give them a lot of a lot of kind of runway here and zk sync have confirmed that they're doing a

token before as well so there's no need to speculate here they have literally said they're doing a token if you want to airdrop farm it there are a couple only a couple of ways right now to do so if you've used get coin to donate using zk sync well then you've already done it um or received donations then you've already got it but there's one other way i think where you can use curve that's on the zksync test net it's been on there since like november last year but using that may qualify you as well for it so those are the couple ways but there's going to be more ways going forward i mean they have the uni swap port as well they ported to their zkvm which you can use you can find that on their blog post as well or on their twitter account but

essentially as i said there's no need to speculate they have said they're gonna they're gonna they're gonna have a token and they've also said that they're going to be distributing that token uh the majority of it to the community as well so very much looking forward to that but i guess congrats to mata labs this is i mean pretty much like every layer two team has done a series b round so far uh you know uh obviously arbitrary did one starkware's done one uh polygon hasn't really done like uh done uh you kind of like series a or series b because they have like a liquid token already so they've just been selling tokens in in kind of like a strategic sales and stuff like that um and whoever else is there uh i you know optimism is probably doing one i don't know uh

there's probably like plenty of kind of like uh of these teams still raising and raising these series b's but as i said before it's rare for a crypto team to go beyond a series b so it's kind of like series b then tokenized sort of thing so curious to see what happens i think 2022 is really going to be the l2 wars where all these l2s are going to have tokens they're going to be fighting for each for everyone's liquidity fighting to get projects fighting to get infrastructure support and we're going to have a true year of l2 i thought it was going to be this year but i think it's going to be next year now because tokens really do lead to bootstrapping growth and going to lead to much more growth than they would have without a token so yeah uh once again congrats to the mata labs

team on this awesome raise here very proud to be an investor as well of course so uni swap have announced that they're kind of like changing their branding of the unisop protocol you could so you can see here that basically actually no they've got three different kind of brands that they're going for so the one on the left is uh what they're kind of assigning to the unisop protocol itself it's kind of like a shield with the unicorn uh i guess like a unicorn in the shape of a shield then you have a unisop labs which is which which is a shield with the kind of like inverted and and kind of like uninverted xyk uh kind of um uh curve here which is how unisop works or how the amm works and then you've got the unisop grants program on the far right with a shield

with kind of a bit of kind of like decorations pointing out of it now i know that branding and kind of like logos are super subjective right this is not something that everyone's going to agree on i've seen some people kind of criticize it saying that it looks too i guess like normie and it looks too much like the traditional finance system that has a lot of kind of like um shields for their logo especially a lot of universities but i actually think it strikes a nice balance between what uni swap is and kind of like what unisop wants to be it wants to be like a premier kind of um product and service on ethereum it wants to be taken very seriously but it also wants to keep its ethereal roots and it's it's kind of like crypto native roots which is what i think the the fact

that they're splitting the brand up or the logos up into three different kind of things here depending on what it is definitely makes a lot of sense to me so i'm a fan of it of course but obviously you're all going to have a very different opinions there and i think that i think it's going to yeah you can share feedback through the governance forum as well this is definitely not the finalized design so if you want to share feedback you can go to this link it'll be linked in the youtube description but i think that gen generally uh i like it i don't know i really do like it um you know i i i like the pink i've always liked the unison pink it's very distinct and i've always liked the uni swap kind of like unicorn branding so yeah it makes a lot

of sense to me uh but definitely go check this out and give your feedback if you uh if you want to so this the discord ceo founder ceo of discord has teased uh ethereum integration with discord today so you can see here that you'll be able to connect your ethereum wallet via metamask or wallet connect in i guess like an upcoming release um now what i wanted to kind of like focus on for a bit here is not so much the kind of like tweet teaser but the fact that if you go to the quote tweets like if you click the quote tweets here you are going to see an endless amount of people kind of hating on discord you can see it here like you discord please god make it stop uh i'm gonna quit using nitro there are so many of these literally thousands

of these responses and it really all comes down to these people are anti-nft for one reason or another i mean the two main reasons i saw was that they think they are ponzi or kind of like scams and secondly they think that the environmental impact is too great which they don't really understand how blockchains work they don't understand that if nfts aren't being used on a blockchain it doesn't matter ethereum is still going to produce produced blocks whether there's nfts or not in those blocks right because the nft network sorry the ethereum network does more than just nfts and the second thing calling it a scam and the ponzi i mean that's just uninformed it i mean obviously a lot of it may be a scam and a ponzi i mean that's just i mean a lot of life is a scam and a ponzi but

um there's a lot of fundamental value here as well so yeah i mean if you want to scroll through it and kind of like just see the craziness uh you can do that but i mean there's nothing of real value there really it's just a bunch of people yelling into the void i think uh but yeah i hope disco doesn't pull this kind of like feature integration um to please some kind of like really loud people who just don't understand the technology because this would be really cool to be able to connect your ethereum well directly into your discord account um you know i'd love to connect sasel.edu to this and just have it natively within discord because i use discord all the time uh so yeah great to see that uh from from jason here so coinbase now has a wallet extension so if you have used the coinbase wallet

in the past um essentially uh i think the the coinbase wallet extension allowed you to do a few things before and obviously the coinbase wallet mobile app has allowed you to do even more but now the coinbase wallet extension is basically a metamask competitor so it'll allow you to connect to any kind of like web3 enabled website if you install this extension and it'll allow you to do what you've done with metamask before and the funny thing is about this is that uh metamask has competitors now and i've spoken about this i think a few months ago on the refuel but metamask has a lot of competitors now but i don't know how successful these competitors are going to be at getting people to migrate away from metamask like i know metamask is missing a lot of features and it's not

really a feature-rich kind of platform it has a lot of issues but i can trust that metamask is safe and secure at least under the hood right obviously um there are kind of like ways that hackers can get access to your funds through metamask and you should be keeping all your funds on a hardware wallet anyway but i pass through metamask through my through my hardware wallet a lot of the time um but for me to change from metamask to coinbase wallet i mean i i just probably not gonna do it like to be honest i have no real real reason to change um i'm a desktop power user i don't really need all the fancy bells and whis whistles i use other tools for that like zappa um but this is cool because it just puts pressure on metamask to kind of i guess

like add more features do more things and it's just another kind of like browser wallet extension that's in in the fray here and speaking of kind of like metamask having to to do things to maybe kind of like compete here joseph lubin has actually teased that uh i mean i iceberg here put out a tweet where they took a screenshot of the chromebase wallet extension announcement and said metamask is going to have to drop a token and then uh this journalist from coindeck coindesk said not gonna happen jpm being jp morgan owns at least 10 percent of metamask controlling entity being consensus they don't want tokens on the balance sheet i bet and then joe lubin the ceo and founder of consensus said um andrew consensus has thousands of tokens on our balance sheet contenders

is vigorously controlled by its employees which includes me and we are driving towards the centralization of several of our projects when mask stay tuned when objective journalism sir so joe lubin basically dropped the mic here while also teasing that uh metamask token is coming so i think this is all the confirmation you need people have been speculating about this for a while but for joe lubin to say when mask stay tuned he didn't just say when mask is kind of like the meme he said when mask stay tuned which basically means that it's coming but uh you know we don't know when just yet now this kind of got people talking today it's like how would you distribute metamask tokens the easiest way for them to do do it would be if you have used the metamask swap feature they can get collect all those addresses and then um

airdrop tokens to those kind of those sorts of sorts of people that have used that um but that's really the only thing they can do because metamask doesn't know what addresses you have uh connected and or kind of like created on the metamask wallet they just don't have access to that information so they wouldn't be able to tell um and also on top of that there's no real way for them to kind of like uh i guess i could do a simple resistant way a simple resistant mechanism either so they would have to go through the swap feature now because of this and because of joe's tweet today i'm sure there's gonna be a lot of people trying to game this airdrop right now but maybe the snapshot had already been taken i don't think joe would be kind of like saying this unless the mass token was

was closed so it probably is happening soon if i had to kind of make a bet there um but there is one other way they could distribute the token and that's uh basically checking the inferior logs so this is maybe a bit esoteric so i have to explain it a little bit but when you install metamask you have your rpc at the top right your network that you're connected with connected to and it will say like the ethereum main net or like a test net or one or another network like arbitrary optimism or something else now when you're on the ethereum main network when you first install metamask it defaults to the infuria endpoint what that means is that all of your transactions that go through metamask are routed through inferiors um full nodes that they run their infrastructure that they run and then that gets it into

the mempool which which then gets it mined and and and then you'll obviously your transaction gets processed now i don't know if infuriate keeps logs for a long time maybe they have i don't even know if they log for this sort of stuff but that's another way they could do it because essentially they'd be able to say well check all the people who used infuria because they would have used it through metamask and airdrop metamask tokens to those people maybe that's the way they're gonna do it but those are the only two ways that i can think of uh maybe someone else can come up with something uh that i haven't thought of but i definitely do not think that uh there's anything else like i i've asked other people um that i know i've asked other people that that kind of like uh uh know kind of

like how metamask works under the hood and how infuriate works and all that sort of stuff really those are the two only two ways that i can think of so i guess if you haven't used the swap feature yet maybe it's worth using it just in case they haven't taken the snapshot at this point uh and all you have to do is go to metamask click swap and it's like they're the centralized exchange swapper but it also carries a fee with it i think it's a 0.8 fee on top of the fee that you'll take for interacting with a decentralized exchange as well which is normally like point three percent but it may be worth it if there is a metamask token or when there is a metamouse token i'm sure a mass token is going to be coming very very soon so keep an eye out for that uh for sure

all right so finally here tim bico from the ethereum uh core devs has put out a kind of like a message here saying that they are looking for eip editors or ethereum improvement proposal editors so eips power ethereum they allow anyone to propose a standard for either the protocol itself or applications right now only two people act as part-time editors and we're looking for others to help so more info here in this link which will be linked in the youtube description if this sounds like something you would like to do if you're looking for your front door front door if you're looking for the front door into getting your foot in the door that's the that's the kind of that's what that's the saying i was looking for if you're getting if you're interested in getting your foot into into the door for crypto this is probably a really

really awesome place to start so if you all have a background in kind of like technical writing or kind of like writing documentation stuff like that this is probably something that will interest you but i'll leave a link to it in the youtube description you can go check it out but i think that's going to be it for today so thank you everyone for listening and watching be sure to subscribe to that channel if you haven't yet give the video a thumbs up subscribe to the newsletter join the discord channel and i'll catch you all tomorrow thanks everyone
