me, any time @ProtonPrivacy, @signalapp, or the @EFF create something i can pay for:

Generally great to see some takes on Glamsterdam. But a few thoughts on FOCIL: > "its censorship benefits do not extend to 99% of transactions known to be excluded by block builders today." I don't think that's fair or accurate: - Today, 60% of transactions still go to the public mempool. Source from @Data_Always himself: All transactions submitted via the public mempool benefit from FOCIL. - 99% of transactions are not actually censored at all today. We are in a very lucky, temporary period of time in which not much censorship happens on public blockchains. This will not last. You also cannot predict what type of transactions will benefit most from CR guarantees tomorrow. For example, I think it's fair to say large institutions will need privacy and will value CR. It just hasn't really materialized yet. But it's also sort of missing the point. The argument that most transactions don't need FOCIL to get included today doesn't mean the network has good CR properties. We want the protocol to be ready when we'll need CR the most, and a good step in that direction is FOCIL.

We support EIP-7732 (EPBS) 😤 Simply put, EPBS improves how @Ethereum processes blocks. For users, that means a more stable, more resilient network, especially when it’s busy. Read more in our @lodestar_eth blog outlining our vision for Glamsterdam's headliner ⤵️

DAILY REMINDER: The internet was never meant to be owned by 5 companies. Web3 is how we take it back. Thanks @Forbes for the feature:

I partnered with @Data_Always to provide our MEV perspective on the Glamsterdam upgrade. TLDR: While BALs are uncontroversially good for the EL, there is no standout candidate for the CL. Every option has clear pros & cons, some of which surprised us.

Counter-argument from Ethereum core developer @dapplion, sharing a personal view, on why EIP-7732 may not be right for Glamsterdam. Lion argues that enshrining proposer-builder separation today is unnecessary, and if we aim to scale in the short term, we can implement EIP-7732 without trustless payments.
