Overheard on Twitter

Over on Twitter, here were the top tweets about Ethereum:

  • From PaulRBerg:

    I recently spent a ridiculous amount of time sorting my dual residency and I can’t help it but think how much more efficient it’d be to use Ethereum + ZKPs.Govs should use blockchains as a neutral communication protocol and forgo relying on papers sent via international post.

  • From SandorReport:

    I’ve read the @binance Smart Chain whitepaper so you don’t have to. The shortest I can summarize it: Binance just launched #Ethereum 2.0 before Ethereum. Full EVM on a PoA chain with tremendous network effect. It’s an incredibly smart move. $BNB @cz_binance

  • From lawmaster:

    To be fair, this was Binance’s plan for years now. They have been preparing for this moment for a while and even started to delist ETH pairs last year and were approaching teams to migrate their apps from Ethereum to Binance Chain.
