Mastering Ethereum


The story of the idealists, technologists, and opportunists fighting to bring cryptocurrency to the masses.

In their short history, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have gone through booms, busts, and internecine wars, recently reaching a market valuation of more than $2 trillion. The central promise of crypto endures—vast fortunes made from decentralized networks not controlled by any single entity and not yet regulated by many governments.

The recent growth of crypto would have been all but impossible if not for a brilliant young man named Vitalik Buterin and his creation: Ethereum. In this book, Laura Shin takes readers inside the founding of this novel cryptocurrency network, which enabled users to launch their own new coins, thus creating a new crypto fever. She introduces readers to larger-than-life characters like Buterin, the Web3 wunderkind; his short-lived CEO, Charles Hoskinson; and Joe Lubin, a former Goldman Sachs VP who became one of crypto’s most well-known billionaires. Sparks fly as these outsized personalities fight for their piece of a seemingly limitless new business opportunity.

This fascinating book shows the crypto market for what it really is: a deeply personal struggle to influence the coming revolution in money, culture, and power.

Idealism, Greed, Lies, and the Making of the First Big Cryptocurrency Craze

The Cryptopians


Tokens - often referred to as cryptocurrencies - can represent anything from an asset to an access right, such as gold, diamonds, a fraction of a Picasso painting or an entry ticket to a concert. Tokens could also be used to reward social media contributions, incentivize the reduction of CO2 emissions, or even ones attention for watching an ad. While it has become easy to create a token, which is collectively managed by a public Web3 infrastructure like a blockchain network, the understanding of how to apply these tokens is still vague.

The industry keeps referring to “Blockchain” as different from “Bitcoin,” creating an artificial divide that is often misleading. There seems to be too little understanding about the fact that Bitcoin is a blockchain network, which is (a) globally managed by people who mostly do not know each other, and (b) enabled by the consensus protocol that (c) incentivizes all network actors for their contributions with a native token. The governance rules are tied to the minting of a native blockchain token. The Bitcoin token can, therefore, be seen as the currency of a distributed Internet tribe, called the Bitcoin network, where network actors are rewarded with Bitcoins, just as the Ether is the currency of the distributed Internet tribe Ethereum network, or Sia is the native currency of the Sia network. The Bitcoin network and other distributed ledgers all represent a collectively maintained public infrastructure and are the backbone of the next generation Internet, what the crypto community refers to as the Web3.

This book attempts to summarize existing knowledge about blockchain networks and other distributed ledgers as the backbone of the Web3, and contextualize the socio-economic implications of the Web3 applications such as smart contracts, tokens, and DAOs to the concepts of money, economics, governance and decentralized finance (DeFi).

## What is a smart contract?

Smart contracts are the backbone of decentralized applications (DApps) and Web3. A smart contract is a simple program that lives on a blockchain network (such as Ethereum). They're actually not that smart. And nothing like a (legal) contract. They’re more like an executable piece of code that requires input or an trigger from an external source. They can validate those input conditions and if correct, execute their own logic to update the state on a blockchain.

## Benefits

They often serve the following purposes:
- Store and maintain data
- Manage relationships with users, or other contracts

Benefits of smart contracts are
- Immutable - once deployed none can change them
- Composable - they’re public and anyone can interact with them, or build on top of them. Much like public APIs

## Resources

The following resources have been the most popular resources on the site for a long time. These are all highly recommend to start learning about Solidity


### 1. Official Solidity website
The most obvious resources is ofcourse the official website and documentation of the Solidity team itself. The Solidity team covers all the core concepts and fundamentals of Solidity and smart contracts in general. Highly recommended

https://soliditylang.org/


### 2. Solidity by Example
The second one on the list is Solidity by Example. A great collection of more practical examples, incl. source code and supporting videos.

https://solidity-by-example.org/


### 3. CryptoZombies 
CryptoZombies is an interactive school that teaches you all things technical about blockchains. A fun and interactive way to write smart contracts in Solidity by making your own crypto-collectibles game.

### 5. Smart Contract Best Practices 

Smart contracts are complex instruments that have the authority to allocate high-value resources between complex systems. Often working autonomously. With huge financial loss at risk. This makes them critical components in these systems. Development of such components requires thoughtful design, solid engineering practices, rigorous testing and a strong security mindset. This document provides a baseline knowledge of security considerations.

Odds are you’ve heard about the Ethereum blockchain, whether or not you know what it is. It’s been in the news a lot lately, including the cover of some major magazines, but reading those articles can be like gibberish if you don’t have a foundation for what exactly Ethereum is. So what is it? In essence, a public database that keeps a permanent record of digital transactions. Importantly, this database doesn’t require any central authority to maintain and secure it. Instead it operates as a “trustless” transactional system — a framework in which individuals can make peer-to-peer transactions without needing to trust a third party OR one another.

Still confused? That’s where this post comes in. My aim is to explain how Ethereum functions at a technical level, without complex math or scary-looking formulas. Even if you’re not a programmer, I hope you’ll walk away with at least better grasp of the tech. If some parts are too technical and difficult to grok, that’s totally fine! There’s really no need to understand every little detail. I recommend just focusing on understanding things at a broad level.

Many of the topics covered in this post are a breakdown of the concepts discussed in the yellow paper. I’ve added my own explanations and diagrams to make understanding Ethereum easier. Those brave enough to take on the technical challenge can also read the Ethereum yellow paper.

Go set TLS 1.2 as the default for clients in 1.18 and servers in 1.22:

- https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.18#tls10
- https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.22#minor_library_changes

I believe CodeQL has a mechanism for checking a project's minimum supported Go version. So this query should only fire for project's that support Go < 1.22 or 1.18 depending on the code used (i.e. client vs. server).

This would make a good first issue for someone 👍

Implement a transaction selection time of high scored transactions 

Current behaviour

```
Produced #23,192,821 / 300 tx / 0 om / 29,481,838 (1.5%) gas / (0xb9dbf8b76bec7e7f780559df0abe419df36f4726a50f61a4970745f1af466834) in 1.569s / Timing(started at 2025-09-

blockAssembled=31ms, importingBlock=129ms, notifyListeners=0ms, log=0ms)
```

Expected behaviour
```
Produced #23,192,821 / 300 tx / 0 om / 29,481,838 (1.5%) gas / 
(0xb9dbf8b76bec7e7f780559df0abe419df36f4726a50f61a4970745f1af466834) in 1.569s / Timing(started at 
2025-09-
11T09:58:35.158638058Z, protocolWait=0ms, duplicateWorldState=31ms, preTxsSelection=3ms, 
txsSelection=1373ms, txsSelectionHighScore=950ms, 
blockAssembled=31ms, importingBlock=129ms, notifyListeners=0ms, log=0ms)
```

This helps to investigate the transaction selection time one there is a timeout to understand what time the transactions that were included in the block took in terms of selection time, example :

```

Produced #23,354,394 / 70 tx / 0 om / 2,785,671 (0.1%) gas / 
(0x051f72e4bff0c012e2c03fc9fcf4d476a3775689ce1329647439e26ec17280d6) in 2.014s / Timing(started at 
2025-09-15T09:13:46.954264875Z, protocolWait=46ms, duplicateWorldState=0ms, preTxsSelection=2ms, 
txsSelection=1923ms, blockAssembled=15ms, importingBlock=26ms, notifyListeners=0ms, log=0ms) 
```
I this case, there was a timeout but we don't know the real time it tool to select the 70 transactions
```
Transaction ... is processing for 1704ms, giving it 316ms grace time
```

Implement tx selection time of High scored txs

# Rationale

It is possible to fetch a single storage slot of a contract using `debug_getStorageAt` method. Anyone doing local simulations will need to call this method over and over and concur the overhead of repeated calls.

The idea is to implement a new method, perhaps `batchGetStorageAt` which fetches multiple slots of the same contract or even `batchGetStorage` which can receive a mapping of contract addresses to slot keys and returns the relevant storages of those accounts.

Currently, there is no way to explicitly pass in **empty** external contracts.

### Context
This causes the forc call functionality to always run `determine_missing_contracts` (which makes RPC calls).
In some scenarios, users may not want to explicitly make RPC calls (reduce latency) and/or may already know that the contract does not integrate with any other contracts.

Hence, forc-call CLI should allow one to explicitly specify no external contract calls are needed.

Peer scoring improves security and resilience of pubsub based systems.
Let's add scoring for gossipsub protocols.


Peer scoring was introduced in Gossipsub/1.1 https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md#peer-scoring. We need to:
- [ ] Add settings. Code you can copy-paste https://github.com/NethermindEth/dotnet-libp2p/pull/48/files#diff-286f0fd5b5357ac650f6aaa3df9913709dd0a490d0d6fc144d79655a7f4ff7edL1
- [ ] Add score to peers, most likely it can be held in `peerState` in PubsubRouter
- [ ] Change score values depending on messages received, etc

Support to view decoded ABI logs was added in this PR: https://github.com/FuelLabs/sway/pull/6856

Unfortunately decoded logs cant be seen in the forc-debug out.

I'd expect the receipts with decoded logs to be present in the output; instead we just see the receipt output.

### Description

`forc call` with `--wallet` parameter fails because the wallet has no base assets (0 balance), even for read-only function calls.

### Steps to Reproduce
1. Deploy a minimal Sway contract
2. Run `forc call` without `--wallet` - works
3. Run `forc call` with `--wallet` - fails

### Example Contract
```sway
contract;

abi Demo {
    fn get_count() -> u64;
}

impl Demo for Contract {
    fn get_count() -> u64 {
        5
    }
}
```

### Commands
Working command (without wallet - uses default signer - which has funds..):
```bash
forc call --abi ./out/release/demo-abi.json $CONTRACT_ADDRESS get_count
```

Failing command (with wallet):
```bash
forc call --abi ./out/release/demo-abi.json $CONTRACT_ADDRESS get_count --wallet
```

### Error Output
```
thread 'main' panicked at /Users/runner/work/sway/sway/forc-plugins/forc-client/src/op/call/missing_contracts.rs:32:10:
Failed to build transaction: Provider("failed to adjust inputs to cover for missing base asset: failed to get base asset (f8f8b6283d7fa5b672b530cbb84fcccb4ff8dc40f8176ef4544ddb1f1952ad07) inputs with amount: `1`: io error: Response errors; the target cannot be met due to insufficient coins available for f8f8b6283d7fa5b672b530cbb84fcccb4ff8dc40f8176ef4544ddb1f1952ad07. Collected: 0.")
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
```

### Expected behaviour
- The `wallet` parameter should not error/panic in the default dry-run mode - since funds are not required for read-only function calls.
- Error message update: The current error is cryptic. It should clearly state: "Wallet has insufficient funds. Please fund your wallet with base asset (<asset-id>)."
  - This is for simulation and/or live-mode - where user funds should be taken into account.

## What to do?

Currently, we use token info service to fetch information about tokens and show on multichain search result page. Recently, we started to import tokens data (including balances) to multichain DB, so it makes sense to migrate from tokens info to multichain DB data 

Current information that is returned from API: 

```json
{
            "address": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
            "icon_url": "https://assets.coingecko.com/coins/images/6319/large/usdc.png?1696506694",
            "name": "USDC",
            "symbol": "USDC",
            "chain_id": "1",
            "is_verified_contract": true
        }
```

In addition to this we need to return the following data to show:
1. If a token is verified (green lable mark) 
2. Token price if it's available

Migrate mutlichain search for tokens from tokens info to multichainDB data

The hardcoded ID value of 1 could cause issues if multiple concurrent requests are made. Consider making the ID configurable or using a unique identifier generation mechanism.
```suggestion
    pub fn new(id: RpcRequestId, method: &str, params: Option<Vec<Value>>) -> Self {
        RpcRequest {
            id,
```

We were missing `Variable` and `Change` output when constructing the `CompressionContext`, but no tests were breaking. We need to clarify the expected behavior with tests.

Currently there are some roundtrip compression tests (e.g. `postcard_roundtrip_v0`) but they don't cover the aforementioned cases.
