Chainlink Prepares to Launch Staking on Ethereum, LINK Keeps Climbing

Blockchain oracle provider Chainlink is preparing to launch staking on the Ethereum network. It is part of a long-term sustainable economic program for the blockchain network.

On Dec. 1, Chainlink provided an update on its staking initiatives. Additionally, the oracle provider confirmed that staking would go live on the Ethereum mainnet on Dec. 6.

Chainlink staking was originally on a 12-24 month lockup period. However, the team has discussed it with the community and node operators. The outcome is a more rapid iteration with more frequent releases. Each release will have a “condensed scope focusing on key features,” it added.

The 133rd Ethereum ACDC meeting: The goal is to complete the devnet within 7-10 days

The Ethereum developers held their 133rd ACDC conference call. First, they outlined the latest research on Ethereum protocol confirmation rules. Then, they discussed Pectra updates related to EIP-7547 and CFI states, and decided to put them on hold temporarily. They also updated the v1.5.0-alpha.1 specification. Regarding the implementation updates for devnet-0, most teams are making progress, but there are also some unexpected complexities. The goal is to complete devnet within 7-10 days.

The Future of Ethereum: Use Cases (Part 1)

In our 4-part series named “The Value of Ether”, we have discussed in detail the framework in which we think it is most appropriate to link value accrual to ETH token holders with the underlying mechanics that operate the Ethereum blockchain. More specifically, we have laid out a case on how increased usage of the network has an impact on supply dynamics and can therefore have a knock-on effect on the value of the Ether token.

Introducing eoracle - the Ethereum Oracle

Ethereum and Bitcoin faced challenges that were overcome with a very cautious approach, resulting in an extraordinary case study for global human coordination. Adding real-world data through oracles as another layer on top of it is a very promising next step. However, so far, we have taken this step forward without the same caution that is fundamental to the journey toward a decentralized ecosystem. Perhaps we were too close to the problem, focusing only on the outcome - making data accessible - and not being mindful enough about the process allowing it.

An introduction to Composable Culture, what it is and why it matters

The current landscape of emerging technologies like blockchain, web3, ai-related solutions and others is paving the way for what I see as the rise of composable culture (or modular culture as one of my peers said1). While I have been hinting the concept in my writings before, an explanation of why an there should be an umbrella term, what are it’s characteristics and advantages is needed.

How to purchase Ethereum GAS in advance

This topic introduces a method for purchasing gas on Ethereum. Technically it is a fully on-chain Ethereum gas futures market. The volatility of gas prices, primarily driven by network demand fluctuations, significantly obstructs user experience on Ethereum due to unpredictable costs. This solution aims to mitigate that issue.

Token Evolution: Uncovering Diverse Applications in the Current Digital Landscape

In this collaborative research endeavor, the Global Crypto Research (GCR) and Friends With Benefits (FWB) unite to present a comprehensive examination of Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) tokens and their contemporary landscape. Despite the burgeoning interest and investment in DAO tokens, their utility and application remain constrained by a spectrum of technical, regulatory, and operational challenges. Our primary objectives are to explore potential use cases for DAO tokens and propose a roadmap for their future evolution. Through this collaborative inquiry, we seek to foster a deeper understanding of DAO tokens, catalyzing innovation and facilitating more robust, versatile, and equitable applications in the digital economy.
