We just launched two more Ethereum relays! @AestusRelay @titanrelayxyz For Staking API integrators, these high performance MEV-Boost relays help enhance decentralization, increase reliability, and diversify block pool access, potentially leading to improved returns. Why are more relays better? 🧵

1) We are excited to complete the audit of Commit-Boost, which is in good shape & ready for validators to migrate to prod. Thank you to the whole @sigp_io team for their expertise + support in various ways for Commit-Boost! Report link & updates below! github.com/sigp/public-audit…

First based preconfs on mainnet! 🕶️ Block 21,180,697 landed the first ever preconfed NFT mint and L1 transfer. Slot durations will matter less and less as transactions increasingly get preconfed for fast UX. This milestone is the culmination of a collaborative sprint that started at Edge City sequencing week just a few days ago. → preconfoors: @ETHGASofficial, Taiyi by @lu_ban_, @boltprotocol_ by @chainbound_, @primev_xyz, @interstatefdn → validators: @Kiln_finance, @ChorusOne, @luganodes, @daniel_taikoxyz, @a41_allforone, @NasdaqBTCS, @BlockscapeLab → commitment sidecar: @commit_Boost → relays: @AestusRelay, Helix by @gattacahq → block builders: @NasdaqBTCS, @titanbuilderxyz by @gattacahq → smart contract: @sam_battenally at @risechain → collaborators: @nodekitorg, @gwyneth_taiko, @sigp_io, @Spire_Labs Special shoutout to the @joinedgecity team who provided the perfect environment to boost the based social layer: @janineleger, @timourxyz, @TelamonArdavani, Cheyenne, Greg 🫡 Fantastic progress was also made on gateway API standards, a universal registration contract, a L2beat-style sequencer classification, interop standards, shared blob packing, an educational website, and a tech tree! Ethereum is based and the future is bright 😎

In a new report by @TeamPOSA, @khushii_w, @pumpernikhil, and Jane Khodarkovsky explore the policy and legal implications of inclusion lists—an important mechanism designed to enhance Ethereum's censorship resistance. Read on for an overview ⬇️

2/ What does this mean? See the blog link for more! - Operators / Stakers: If you are not testing, start testing! If you are testing, get ready for production! - Modules: Validators are coming, keep shipping! - Ethereum Community: A new sidecar compatible with PBS but reduces fragmentation risks and gives validators more autonomy over block construction is coming - Broader Community: Please reach out and get involved! twisty-wednesday-4be.notion.…

1/ We are excited to share that Commit-Boost is headed towards audit and production! As an open-source, public good, this could not have been possible without many teams across the Ethereum Community. Thank you for all your time and effort! See below 👇

Thanks to @OctantApp crew for guiding us through an application for public goods funding in Epoch 5.
