Robotics: The Third Wave of AI Speculation

Andrew Kang will likely become a billionaire in the coming years, and not from crypto. If you’ve been doomscrolling CT over the past week or so, you may have noticed one of the many hyperbolic takes he has on the future of robotics. https://x.com/Rewkang/status/1900018011404460428 And his claims that this sector will reach “decatrillio...

On DA Wars & ETH Alignment

One thing to note is that all the L2s reaching for giga gas throughput have opted for an external data availability solution. This is because one of the main bottlenecks to scaling beyond giga gas/s is data availability. The more transaction data a chain produces, the more data it has to store and make available when data correctness is r...
