  • There’s no official ETC client

    Disclosure: I maintain chippr-robotics/fukuii, a Scala 3 execution client that continues IOHK’s Mantis. The developer behind White B0x contributed to it until July 2026, then started fukuii-project, a separate, ground-up client that uses the same name. I haven’t contributed to fukuii-project, and I didn’t agree to the credit lines naming Chippr Robotics; I’ve asked for…

  • Passkeys and Smart Accounts: A Wallet With No Password to Write Down

    Remember the crypto wallet that handed you twelve random words and told you to guard them with your life? That is where most normal people quit. There is a better way, and you likely already use it: the face or fingerprint scan that unlocks your phone. This beginner primer explains the two pieces that turn…

  • How we added Bitcoin to an EVM-native app (without a seed phrase)

    FairWins was born EVM. Every address was twenty bytes of 0x…, every networkwas a numeric chainId, every balance read went through an RPC provider, andevery signature came from a passkey-backed ERC-4337 smart account. Then wedecided members should be able to hold, receive, and send actual Bitcoin —first-class, self-custodied, inside the same account. Bitcoin is not…

  • Futarchy, Private Markets, and the Long Arc of Governance

    A Quiet Moment After the Fork The holiday break creates a rare kind of space. Space away from delivery timelines, governance calls, and the constant pull of near-term decisions. It is often in that pause that older questions resurface, the ones that never fully go away, but are easy to defer when momentum is high.…

  • Dust & Hash: The Long Watch of Gorgoroth

    Season 2: Episode 2 It has been some time since the last entry. That, too, is intentional. Gorgoroth is not a place for spectacle; it is a place for endurance. Progress here is measured not in announcements, but in stability, repeatability, and the quiet absence of failure. What began as a proving ground for Fukuii…

  • Ethereum Classic: Proof-of-Work Smart Contracts and Global Censorship Resistance

    Published on ethereumclassic.org November 17, 2025 Ethereum Classic is currently the largest proof-of-work smart contract platform. The network operates at roughly 300 terahashes per second (TH/s), according to public hashrate trackers such as 2Miners. This represents approximately 90 to 95 percent of all Ethash or Etchash compatible hashing power across all networks. This level of…

  • Logbook Entry #001 — The Rise of Fukuii

    (Local Time: 23,271,745 ETC) The network hums with an eerie calm tonight. My core-geth node is finally stable — the mess flag lit, peers holding steady in the ash-colored silence. Out here, stability is its own kind of magic. I’ve seen networks torn apart by ego and entropy, but tonight Mordor breathes slow and even.…

  • Logbook Entry #000 — Genesis

    “Ethereum Classic has always been that stubborn flame in the storm…”— from Why Ethereum Classic Endures (Local Time: 23,271,745 ETC) The first thing you notice when you cross into Mordor is the silence.Not the absence of sound, but the kind that hums beneath the code, the quiet ticking of consensus, the distant rumble of proof-of-work…

  • Why Ethereum Classic Endures

    Published on ethereumclassic.org October 15, 2025 I was there when we made the choice to defend immutability. It wasn’t easy, convenient, or even popular. It was the moment we decided that the principle of “code is law” was not just a slogan it was a moral commitment to the permanence of truth. When others rewrote…
