frames are all you need
if something became foundational infrastructure… why would you rebuild it?
can someone explain what migration is gonna look like? v1 continues working as normal right? (in building my cli i couldnt test ens on sepolia bc it was v2 but mainnet is v1, was already annoying devEx)

i cant query smart contracts on sepolia etherscan UI without a “paid account” anymore ??!
thats rly sad/inconvenient
i would REALLY wanna see the 0.01 ETH tornado pool and went to @pcaversaccio with this idea
the reasoning is basically: it would make UX for kohaku stuff — for users that only want to use tornado cash — much better (any amount if ETH under 0.1 getting stranded is a big problem)

imho one critical missing piece for tornado cash to become more usuable on a _daily_ basis is having a 0.01 ETH pool. we could simply clone the existing working pool code, adjust for 0.01 ETH (only nit adjustments needed actually), and make a proposal to governance (so the pool can be registered via the official router) that (CREATE2-)deploys this pool when the proposal is executed and we're good to go. ui code would need an update as well, but this is solveable. (and after this happened we dissolve TC governance 😉, but this is another topic lol). thoughts?

also, a thing ppl don't think abt much:
if u want strong onchain privacy running a node is key (avoids centralized RPC provider knowing abt ur chain reads)
so one reason to "altruistically" run your own node isn't altruistic at all, it aids ur privacy as a user of ethereum!

brother,
you underestimate the global nerddom
hi im on a podcast
Ethereum's Privacy Endgame w/ EF, Railgun, and Ambire
the spain stuff was/is so clearly a psyop
mainly bc the pro-Israel crowd _instantly_ latched onto it (even though it has nothing to do with them rly)
A certain false narrative about what is happening in Ceuta was instantly consecrated yesterday by people who never heard of Ceuta, let alone could place it on a map, and it will never be uprooted no matter how often it’s debunked. One of those zombie lies. Worth understanding 👇

the best hardware wallet is just a burner laptop that never touches the internet
yeahhhhhh (this was very much my era of entry into ethereum land, aka circa 2017)
impact. feels good man.
Anyone with your wallet address can see every:
- Token you hold
- App you use
- Account you've sent funds to
That's not how money is supposed to work and Kohaku is changing this 🧵

niche math joke lfg
Update!
1. I’ve tested the cli and works seamlessly against my local full node as the RPC provider
2. interactions with the pimlico endpoint are now done via tor by default thanks to tor-js
plugging all the holes

Let's analyze things from a privacy POV
The CLI talks over http to 2 servers which could be critical to your privacy
1. The Ethereum RPC endpoint
2. Pimlico public endpoint for 4337 UserOp submission
these are the ONLY http endpoints the cli interacts with

spending my saturday testing...
tornado AND railgun AND privacy pools deposits / withdrawals on the ethereum mainnet
all with my little homegrown CLI
feels good man. feels SO good.
extremely important!
Let’s harden Tornado Cash even further. Pure immutable onchain infrastructure *mwah*
And then let’s use Tornado. A lot. Bc it’s truly CROPS.
I want to get a bit more public about the work we at the Kohaku Initiative inside the EF are doing
I notice there's hype but there's also confusion. Best way to clarify things is to speak candidly and openly about what I'm working on day-to-day
