This week under voting -- referendum #23

This is to set the Emission curve to get an expected* max supply of ~60M

The block reward will be set to 12KLP at the block 700000 and 6KLP at the block 1200000 (respectively around September 2021 and September 2022).

[The treasury's donation should be changed accordingly when we are approaching the above blocks, respectively to 3KLP (for a total of 15KLP minted of each block) and 1.5KLP (for a total of 7.5KLP minted for each block)

This week's referendum #25
 
This is to vote on enacting the DX3906 runtime upgrade. For changelog

Please see  https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu/releases/tag/v2.6.0

In particular, please note that this runtime upgrade will enable the "lockdrop" runtime module, which you can find more information here.  https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu/pull/126

If the current runtime upgrade failed to obtain a super majority on-chain, we'll post a new runtime upgrade with the "lockdrop" runtime module removed.

* Start block 800k: 21 KLP.
* Start block 1050k: 18 KLP.

Relaychain Chat with Developer Wei Tang

January 16th, 2020

https://relaychain.fm/12-ethereum-past-present-and-future

In this episode, hosts Joe Petrowski (Research Analyst, Parity) and Phil Lucsok (Product Communications Manager, Parity) speak with Wei Tang (Core Developer, Parity) about his work on several Ethereum- and Substrate-related projects. They discuss Tang’s experience working on Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, and Substrate, including innovative proposals for account versioning, backwards compatibility, and bridging and merging different Ethereum chains, as well as the future of ETH 2.0 and the broader Ethereum community.

Tang is known amongst his peers as an exceptionally gifted and prolific developer, having built the SputnikVM Rust implementation of Ethereum from scratch just by reading the Ethereum yellow paper (without looking at other clients), and having created the Substrate EVM implementation in just a few days.

Highlights:

00:57 - Why open source and Rust
03:30 - Building an Ethereum VM implementation from scratch
05:53 - SputnikVM and ETC
08:22 - Ethereum account versioning & backwards compatibility
15:10 - EIP 2225: bridging and merging different Ethereum chains
20:00 - Multi-client transaction validation for Ethereum
25:00 - Contentious EIPs and improving governance
26:52 - Shasper and implementing Ethereum 2.0 on Substrate
31:57 - ETH 2.0 challenges and roadblocks
34:07 - Substrate EVM
37:19 - Solri and Kulupu: Substrate meets proof-of-work

This is so amazing, we could expect big news in the future in the coming years
