- Vitalik Buterin stated at the Devconnect in Turkey that he plans to redesign Ethereum staking and solve problems affecting performance. He recognizes the UTXO payment model and hopes to integrate private mempools, ERC-4337, code pre-compilation, ZK-EVMs and liquid staking in Ethereum. Vitalik also expressed concern about the increasing concentration of Ethereum liquid staking in the proof-of-stake model.

**1. On-Chain Blocking:** Users can now block each other on-chain, similar to Web2 platforms. Blocked accounts lose commenting, following, and other specific crypto features.
**2. Monetization Boost:** V2 introduces enhanced monetization opportunities, elevating decentralized social media to new heights.
**3. Crypto-Native Actions**: Lens delves into more crypto-native actions, enabling seamless integration of DAO participation and direct donations to public goods within content.
**4. ERC-6551 Standard Profiles:** Profiles, now ERC-6551 NFTs, function like crypto wallets. Users can buy, sell, and store cryptocurrencies, offering more utility than standard digital collectibles.
**5. Profile Manager**: Lens V2 allows now to store your profile on ledger and delegate social actions to multiple wallets. Improved UX while owning Lens profile securely on your hardware wallet.

- Spam and bots are one of the most fascinating (and hardest) problem to solve in social media, especially in web3 where bots are willing to spend significant amount of funds for a financial gain. As long as there is an arbitrage between buying access and financial gain, this arb will exist. Eventually its an ML problem to solve, and even further a battle of algorithms. I bet the problem would be solved first on a decentralized social media protocol where there is open access to compute the data to build these algorithms.

- Hey fellow adventurers! 🌲✨
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Yellowstone National Park, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of a mesmerizing journey into the heart of nature's wonders. 🏞️💛 Here's a little glimpse into why I absolutely loved my time there!
**Geothermal Marvels: 🌋**
Yellowstone is home to some of the most spectacular geothermal features on the planet. From the iconic Old Faithful to the colorful Grand Prismatic Spring, every geyser and hot spring is a testament to the Earth's raw power. The steam rising against the backdrop of a clear blue sky is a sight that etches itself into your memory.
**Wildlife Encounters: 🦌**
If you're a wildlife enthusiast like me, Yellowstone is a dream come true. I had the incredible fortune of spotting bison, elk, and even a grizzly bear in their natural habitats. It's like being part of a real-life National Geographic documentary. Just remember to keep a safe distance and enjoy the wildlife responsibly.
**Scenic Drives and Hikes: 🚗🥾**
Yellowstone boasts some of the most picturesque drives and hiking trails. The landscapes are diverse, ranging from lush forests to expansive meadows. One of my favorite moments was driving along Yellowstone Lake at sunset—it felt like the world was painted in hues of orange and pink.
**The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone: 🏞️**
The breathtaking Grand Canyon of Yellowstone is a must-see. The vibrant colors of the canyon walls and the powerful Yellowstone River cutting through the landscape make for a scene straight out of a fantasy novel. Artist Point offers a stunning panoramic view—I could have stayed there forever!
**Starry Nights: 🌌**
Yellowstone's night sky is a celestial masterpiece. Far away from city lights, the stars shine brilliantly, creating a mesmerizing celestial display. I highly recommend taking a moment to lay on the grass and stargaze—it's a humbling experience that reconnects you with the vastness of the universe.
**Old Western Charm: 🤠**
The park has an old western charm that adds to its allure. From the rustic lodges to the wooden boardwalks, Yellowstone manages to transport you to a simpler time while still providing modern comforts. It's a perfect blend of nostalgia and adventure.
In conclusion, Yellowstone National Park is a treasure trove of natural beauty and an absolute must-visit for anyone seeking an escape into the wild. Whether you're a nature lover, wildlife enthusiast, or just someone looking for a break from the hustle and bustle, Yellowstone offers an unforgettable experience that will stay with you long after you've left.
