Hey ETH coiners, recently I encountered an address with the private key of all 0s, is that the genesis address? It has a lot of shitcoins and 10 ETH. Since nobody wants the coins inside, is there any way to transfer from that address? If you could move the coins, just gimme 25%, thanks in advance.

Really cool resource @zasad. Never seen that before, always been curious.
Having that many active developers on a project really kind of shows a technical moat that ETH is developing. When there's that much of a community and that much being built, it's going to get harder and harder to compete with it long term. Would be easier to just strap on to it's infrastructure.
I'm a huge Bitcoin fan but it's a bit boring technologically - which is a good thing. I think it's great that there's two ends to the spectrum for how things are ultimately working out for BTC/ETH.

Ethereum leads in the number of developers
https://www.developerreport.com/developer-report
"1. Monthly active developers grew +5% year-over-year, despite 70%+ decline in prices.
23,343 monthly developers as of December 2022.
471,000+ monthly code commits are made monthly toward open-source crypto.
+8% YoY growth in Full-Time developers. Full-Time developer growth is the most important growth signal to track because they contribute 76% of code commits.
All-time high of 61,000+ developers contributed code for the first time in 2022.
2. Crypto network value is back to January 2018 levels, but monthly active developers have increased +297% since 2018. Comparing the previous crypto winter to today:
3x growth in Bitcoin monthly active developers, from 372 to to 946.
5x growth in Ethereum monthly active developers, from 1,084 to 5,819.
Solana, Polkadot, Cosmos, & Polygon grew from fewer than 200 devs to 1,000+ developers.
3. Major ecosystems are emerging beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
72% of monthly active devs work outside the Bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems.
Solana, NEAR, and Polygon grew 40% YoY and have 500+ total monthly active developers.
Sui, Aptos, Starknet, Mina, Osmosis, Hedera, Optimism, and Arbitrum grew 50%+ YoY and have 100+ total monthly active developers.
3,901 developers work in DeFi every month across multiple chains, +240% since DeFi summer. 50% of DeFi developers are outside of Ethereum.
900+ developers write code monthly in NFTs across chains, +299% since 2021."

Ethereum continues to dominate developer activity, having increased its full-time developer count by 9% to 1,873 — which is more than the next three highest ecosystems combined: Polkadot (752), Cosmos (511) and Solana (383).
Developer counts on non-Ethereum chains are catching up though. The Cosmos and Solana networks increased 34% and 36%, respectively, while Starknet is among one of the mid-sized ecosystems to have made a solid run In 2022 with a 214% increase in developer count.

As bitcoin goes, ETH is up too.
Well, thanks to ETH's smart contract that has opened it all and some projects that have been made out of it before got the little foot steps that has been followed through ETH.
Ethereum has come along way. A lot of people in private circles are talking about how AI is now creeping on the ETH chain. Generating ART. Creating NFT’s . Even creating Account’s and selling it’s own NFT’s. Crazy times we live in. 
Never could have imagined ETH giving rise to Skynet 
That's giving the idea to even in the corporate world, some of them are now giving their NFTs to their consumers and not just giving it but also selling it.

Ethereum developers eye February public testnet for Shanghai upgrade
The planned Shanghai upgrade of the Ethereum network will focus exclusively on ETH withdrawals.
Developers are planning to release a public test network for the Shanghai upgrade by the end of February.

Anyone know the aprox date we get to access our 32 ETH collateral for validator node?
As Beiko stated, the Ethereum core devs have decided to prioritize enabling stake withdrawals over implementing the so-called “Surge” upgrade with EIP-4884. The proposal will enable the withdrawal of staked ETH for the first time.
So while EIP-4844 will not be included, three more technical EIPs that are of interest primarily to developers are already sure to be bundled into the Shanghai upgrade.

Perfect, thanks my friend. Not so bad, another 2 months.

Oh hello there Vitalik, why ETH wallets are this shitty I can't even verify a signed message with them, The metamask joke of a wallet has no sign or verify tools. Only way to sign was by using an online wallet.
I'm not Vitalik, but I recommend you mycrypto wallethttps://mycrypto.com
Metamask was designed for other purposes and is a very good wallet for DeFi applications. Ethereum has not made official wallets for a long time. Wallets are developed by separate teams for decentralization, but wallets are compatible for fast data transfer.
Also myetherwallet will help you

These are 2 very old and reliable wallets.
This should not be hard at all for people, using bitcoin wallets would take a few seconds, I'm trying to decode this message since yesterday to no avail.

"Is this right? Only 3 months after ETH goes PoS, 69% of blocks are OFAC compliant?
Meaning Ethereum is already under control by the US government.
This means all DeFi apps running on ETH are not decentralised finance. And transactions are not censorship resistant."

In general, this is a totally retarded problem, the fact this many spineless retards are bending the knee to the US government.
But, that said, Justin Drake said that there is a hard solve fix to this problem coming this year so it's not really a contentious issue any more. I think he said it also fixes MEV.
All that needs to be done is to force all node operators to go with the block that burns the most Ethereum. That way, they can't choose which ones to accept and which ones to decline.
I could be wrong, I'm not super technical, but I believe all of the above to be true/accurate.

Domains in the form of NFTs can be traded on leading marketplaces such as Looks Rare or OpenSea. However, ENS.Vision, specialized in ENS domains, became the largest platform in terms of trading volumes. According to the platform, the most expensive addresses were “333.eth” and “metaverse.eth”, sold for 100 and 99 ETH respectively.
Domains are becoming a form of identification in the crypto community. The minimum price (floor price) for addresses in the “999 Club” category, that is, three-digit addresses consisting of numbers, is at around 20.22 ETH (more than $46,000 at the exchange rate on January 2).

The developer claims that this makes BNB Chain “the largest layer 1 blockchain in the world.” However, blockchain data shows that the Bitcoin network is still larger than both BNB Chain and Ethereum.
According to Etherscan, Ethereum currently has over 217 million unique addresses. By contrast, BNB Chain has over 233 million unique addresses, according to BscScan. This implies that BNB Chain is larger than Ethereum as judged by this metric.

That's bad honestly. Before, ETH has been one of the shining projects in the market that leads all of the decentralized projects that it has started. But this shift of POS changed a lot of things, I own some ETH and this is concerning me although most of them sold at top, I still got to hold a few.Willy Woo(C)

And I guess this is going to affect how my holdings will go on if once everyone starts to know that it's being mostly controlled by the US gov't.
