BOOKMARKED ISSUE #8

This newsletter is a weekly curation of my Twitter Bookmarks.

Hi Pals !

As promised, this week will be very interesting !

In fact, this week I'm releasing my Manifesto, more on that further down. To celebrate, the whole newsletter is available to everyone this week. Alright, let's go !

Graffiti vs Blockchain As A Medium

I know Noah is hinting at a parallel between Graffiti and Digital Art, but I think this also applies (and is more relevant) to blockchain art:

@Noahbolanowski

Incredible parallels to Graffiti in 1983 to that of Digital Art Today

"Hubert & Dolores Neumann are art collectors who have become instrumental in graffiti's acceptance as a legitimate art form....[they] not only purchase graffiti art, but actively promote it."

From 1984's,…

How to avoid Shadowbans

Another banger tweet by @officer_cia, at this point if you're still not following him you're trolling. In this post he goes into how to avoid X shadowbans, and even better, come back from them:

Officer's Notes

@officer_cia

I talked to an employee from the previous @X administration, and he gave me a few recommendations regarding profile growth. In particular, strategies against shadow-bans!

Today I'm going to give you the key takeaways. So, the main takeaways are that in order to get rid of the…

@MrStevenSteele

Elon would you reconsider the shadow banning policy? It would be nice if those of us who have been flatlined and shadowbanned were told why and had an opportunity to delete whatever caused it so we aren’t indefinitely stuck here. Thanks kindly

ETH is running out of storage

Paradigm's @notnotstorm is a favorite of mine, he's been releasing great tools to scrape and store blockchain data. In his latest post he goes into why and how we should raise the ethereum gas limit.

@notnotstorm

how to raise the gas limit, part 2

1. the goal = raise the gas limit
2. the approach = use lots of data
3. the focus today = 𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐓𝐇

very excited to release our latest research on the LARGEST + LEAST DISCUSSED factor holding back Ethereum's gas limit

I also asked him to tell us more about how EIP-4444 could impact onchain art:

storm

@notnotstorm

the history will be preserved in any case. and the functionality of RPC data endpoints will be unchanged. however, the data of txs will be stored on different infrastructure and storing it will become optional for typical eth nodes

contract storage will be 100% unchanged

Open Source Oscilloscopes ?

Look I don't know much about oscilloscopes, but I know they're expensive af, so I was quite surprised to see this post:

John Simons

@johnsel92

Here is what you need to know about Open Source Oscilloscopes:

HectaScope is being built around an Artix Ultrascale+ with 50Gb/s PCIe gen4 to the host and the ADC12DJ3200 ADC, with a 6.4GSPS single channel capacity and a 2GHz frontend it will be a serious measurement machine.…

Last but not least, the BAAM Manifesto. I'm happy to say I finally released it today. If you, like me, are a sucker for onchain art and the new blockchain medium, please do sign and share it !
