Winter is coming... or at least is getting rekt. Wintermute protocol has suffered an attack from one of their own wallets. How? The wallet keys were generated with Profanity, a key generation tool, that was found to have a vulnerability.

An amazing article from the Buterin himself about layer-2 and layer-3. What is layer-3? Can we stack-up layer-2s on top of layer-2s for exponential scaling? What role do SNARKs have in all this? Read on!

Infura is starting to test-out a decentralized service similar to the centralized one the currently offer. The decentralized their full stack, but at least most of it to boost interoperability between providers. Check it out!

A new concept is arising from the Web3 world: the Network States. Not unlike sovereign states, the concept proposes that Web3 can breed a new type of decentralized state, where their members are not limited anymore by the physical world:

Network States
Communities formed around Web3 protocols and projects are already quite strong - do they have the potential to become network states?

Another challenge busted down.

Unfortunately, the intended behavior is tough to achieve due to the way some APIs are implemented on Ethereum. However, you may get to know a new attack vector.
The intended way may however be observed by forking the chain in HH https://twitter.com/thesolidchain/status/1569958133522436097
Another Ciphershastra challenge write-up incoming!! The Solid Chain is breaking stuff all over the place. In this case for solving the Maya challenge. This one has even uncovered a bug in Solidity/Ethers.js!

What if we have a ZKP CTF challenge?
Hell Yeahh.... Dropping Soon!

When implementing upgradeable contracts using OpenZeppelin library, make use of their upgrades plugin to make sure that your storage gaps are correct. Now you can even use it in your own contracts!!

The Merge is here!! Just moments ago the long expected Merge has been achieved and the Ethereum network has transitioned to Proof of Stake without hiccups. Congratulations to everybody involved!! This is a huge milestone.

Decentralization is a hot topic nowadays in Web3. After the banning of Tornado Cash from some (de)centralized services, and the imminent Merge, the Web3 ecosystem will need to have a strong opinion on the topic:
