BMNR Bullz(@BMNRBullz):Ethereum’s block clock is still 12 seconds. EIP-8198 (Quick Slots) would make that number a setting, not a law. Ethlabs’ path: 10 seconds in Hegotá, then lower if the network holds. They talk about sub 6 later. That’s a target, not a ship date. Names on the direction: DefiLlama, Ondo, Ethena, Lido, Derive, Railgun, Flashbots, Titan Builder. What faster slots actually change: DEX prices less stale tighter spreads less time for the fill to move against you faster L1 ↔ rollup handoffs The point isn’t 12 → 10. It’s that 12 seconds stops being permanent. $ETH
