Hey eth coiners, is there any bounty reward for keccak256 collisions? If there is please let me know so I can get to work on it, need money.🤑
Edit: after reading the bug bounty page, I live in a sanctioned country and can't receive any reward, so fuck you eth foundation. Vitalik and all of your centralized network of scam contracts.🙃

Mainnet Shapella Announcement
Posted by Protocol Support Team on March 28, 2023
Withdrawals are coming! The Shapella network upgrade will activate on the Ethereum network at epoch 194048, scheduled for 22:27:35 UTC on Apr. 12, 2023
Stakers & node operators should read this post as well as the Withdrawals FAQ
From now until April 5th, the Ethereum Bug Bounty rewards have been doubled for Shapella vulnerabilities
You can now sign up to receive emails for these upgrade announcements. Scroll to the bottom of the page to do so 📩

My scenario, altcoins are a small increase of 30-70% before the fork, then the price falls.

Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta Goes Live ; Ethereum’s Buterin Sends First Transaction
Polygon, an Ethereum scaling platform, released its zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM) beta to the public Monday, the latest launch in what is expected to be one of 2023’s hottest blockchain trends.
Polygon also said that it is making all aspects of its zkEVM open source, so developers are able to study and share the code, allowing them to contribute to more innovations in the zero-knowledge space.

Over $1 billion of ether has been lost forever due to bugs and human error
2Coinbase director Conor Grogan categorized thousands of mistakes and bugs on the Ethereum blockchain.
He found that 636,000 ETH ($1.15 billion) has been lost forever — and that’s not including people that have lost access to their wallets."

Breaking: Shanghai upgrade executed on testnet but not without issues
There were, however, issues with the hard fork. Ethereum core developer Tim Beiko noted that while deposits were being processed, the process didn’t run as smoothly as it could have because several testnet validators didn’t upgrade their client software before the Goerli fork.

THE SHANGHAI/CAPELLA UPGRADE
March 2023
"Your Ultimate Guide to ETH Staking Withdrawals
All you need to know about the Shanghai/Capella upgrade, and what it means for stakers and the web3 ecosystem.
Now, the Ethereum community is rallying behind the next planned upgrade on the roadmap—the Shanghai/Capella upgrade. It is doubly named because it is the first simultaneous upgrade of Ethereum’s execution layer and consensus layer, and is highly anticipated because it will enable staked ETH withdrawals."

do not be surprised with that ape look on buterins face when he realizes the guy like me is in control of him and no other way for him is left but to go upstage with remorseful face and announce the suspension of plans. Highbrow nuts say market takes care of itself because it proceeds hand in glove with development but they do not know how centralized this place has become since my coming to power.
i am a very modest user, but i do not understand the precise finality of this manoevers..
please explain..
Core developers set date for Goerli testnet deployment of March 14, but mainnet — and staked ether withdrawals — will have to wait until April
No firm date for the eventual mainnet hard fork has been set yet, but the downstream effects to the agreed timeline are likely to bump Shanghai’s final deployment to about a month afterwards, developers said.

Seems like March 14th the final testnet for Shanghai goes live then 3-4 weeks that follow, so early-mid April, Shanghai goes officially live.
Last major structural update related to merge. Then it's off to the races for dank sharding.

The date is conjectural. Needs to hear downsides and upsides for this release before it can ever go live. I have a heavy dismissive hand, can ban it outright.

Ethereum Says ERC-4337 Deployed, Tested, Beginning Era of Smart Accounts
"The news of the deployment of ERC-4337 will be shared at an ETHDenver-related event, known as WalletCon.
The Ethereum blockchain has deployed a feature known as “account abstraction,” seen as a key enhancement that could make it easier for users to recover crypto if they lose private keys to an online wallet.
The new standard, formally known as ERC-4337, was deployed via a smart contract called EntryPoint, according to data on the blockchain explorer web site Etherscan and confirmed by Yoav Weiss, a security fellow at the Ethereum Foundation. The contract has already undergone a full security audit, people with knowledge of the matter told CoinDesk."

They have announced on their blog Devcon 7 will take place in Southeast Asia in 2024 but the deadline for suggestions is 15th March 2023 therefore those that have interests in the future roadmap of Ethereum should contact the Ethereum Foundation.
For those that might not know, Devcon is the only annual conference held by the Ethereum Foundation and is the place for people to get together to discuss and collaborate on anything and everything Ethereum related.

Beiko pointed out that the distribution methods for Goerli ETH has become less reliable, leading to the current issues.
LayerZero Labs launched a testnet bridge that monetizes Goerli ETH testnet tokens."

I am trying to get a standalone PHP code without any external dependency to generate an Ethereum address/key pair. So I asked OpenAI ChatGPT to write the code for me. I got two different versions from it...
Version 1
Version 2
For Keccak, this code is used - https://github.com/kornrunner/php-keccak/blob/main/src/Keccak.php
Sample o/p of Version 1 is...
Sample o/p of Version 2 is...
Clearly, address generated by both versions are wrong and AI is unable to fix the code. Can any of you please fix it?
Version 1
Code:
include "keccak.php";
use kornrunner\Keccak;
// Generate a random private key
$private_key = bin2hex(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(32));
// Compute the public key from the private key using elliptic curve cryptography
$public_key = '0x'.bin2hex(gmp_export(gmp_mul(gmp_init('0x'.bin2hex(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(32)), 16), gmp_init('0x'.bin2hex(gmp_powm(gmp_init(2), gmp_init('0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF5D576E7357A4501DDFE92F46681B20A0', 16), gmp_init('0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF5D576E7357A4501DDFE92F46681B20A1', 16))), 16))));
// Compute the Keccak-256 hash of the public key (as a hex string)
$address = '0x' . substr(Keccak::hash(hex2bin(substr($public_key, 2)), 256), -40);

// Generate the Ethereum address from the public key
