Ethereum ACDE 177: Developers discuss performance of second Goerli shadow fork

Christine Kim, Vice President of Galaxy Research, summarized the 177th Ethereum Core Developer Execution Layer Meeting (ACDE). This week, developers set tentative dates for activating the Cancun/Deneb upgrade on all three public Ethereum test networks. The test network upgrade times are: Goerli fork on January 17, 2023, Sepolia fork on January 31, 2023, and Holesky fork on February 7, 2023. The above dates may change because developers may need to update them due to unexpected errors and issues with client releases in the coming weeks. Developers also discussed the performance of the second Goerli shadow fork, the precompiled address range for Layer 2, and expectations for the Prague/Electra upgrade. The meeting also confirmed that the next ACDE meeting will be held on January 4, 2023.

Solana Thesis Part II: The Data-Driven Case for SOL

In Q4’23 Syncracy released a public thesis on Solana. In it we argued that SOL was severely mispriced at 13% of Ethereum’s valuation given its industry-leading scalability, unique integrated design, and growing developer traction. At the time, the case for Solana was mostly qualitative as the data confirming that thesis was still emerging. The argument essentially boiled down to Solana offering a rare opportunity to own a foundational project, at a distressed valuation, that unlocked new possibilities at a scale comparable to Bitcoin and Ethereum. In other words, while the Solana story was undeniably exciting, it was driven more by potential, than momentum.
