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).

This is an initiative for the early solidity developers by those who were early developers sometime.

In this approach, we are looking to categorize the smart contract according to the difficulty level in multiple standards. For now, we are keeping the standard 0 to 5(can be discussed).

This initiative needs great support from Blockchain enthusiast, developer and researchers to build this school in a way which can attract learners and provide them ease for development.

## 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.

The `BeaconNodeFallback` struct from LH provides a way to connect to multiple Beacon Nodes. It has two parameters that can be configured beyond the BN URLs: 
- **`broadcast_topics`**: Which requests should be broadcasted to all BNs instead of sending sequentially, stopping with the first successful request.
- **`sync_tolerances`**: Which nodes do we consider synced, based on distance between current slot and current head?

We currently use the default values only. Power users might want to set these values via CLI, as is possible with Lighthouses CLI. Implement this, reusing CLI parameter names from lighthouse.

In much of the go codebase, we use and initialize structs.

In most of those places, we should really ensure that all fields on the struct are explicitly initialized. This helps to ensure that new fields on structs aren't just silently getting the zero value for that type without anyone noticing.

We can annotate each struct initialization with:
```
// lint:require-exhaustive-initialization
```

To ensure that structs are exhaustively initialized.

One example of this is:
https://github.com/OffchainLabs/nitro/blob/7fd92faabe996f25a85b02b005cb1674d2fd7b66/linters/testdata/src/structinit/a/a.go#L5

But, that's just in the linter test. We want to start adopting this in more places in our codebase with the eventual goal of making the linter-opt out once the majority of struct initializations are exhaustive.

If you open a PR to add this annotation to a struct, be sure to reference this issue in the commit comment.

# Main point

Given the number of instructions that the OOB module deals with (and the `8 = 1 + 7` new BLS precompile related instructions) the OOB module could start using perspectives. We would require the following perspectives columns
```rust
MACRO
SCENARIO
COMPUTATION
```
We may split `SCENARIO` further and have e.g. `SCENARIOS_OPC` / `SCENARIOS_PRC` / `SCENARIOS_BLS` columns or any other splitting that makes sense.

## Structure

The internal transitions would be
```rust
PADDING+ INSTRUCTION_PROCESSING*
```
where `INSTRUCTION_PROCESSING` is
```rust
MACRO        [1 row]
SCENARIO_XXX [1 row]
COMPUTATION  [ct_max rows]
```

## Lookups

We would further have room to have WCP and EUC lookup columns to live side by side as in https://github.com/Consensys/linea-specification/issues/141 (if we want to.) Indeed we require `6 = I + 2 + 2 + 1` WCP columns (instruction, 1st argument, 2nd argument, result) and `3 = 1 + 1 + 1` EUC columns (arg 1, arg 2, res) and with the latest OOB instruction (for `CREATE` post [EIP-3860](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-3860), see https://github.com/Consensys/linea-specification/issues/59) we have 10 `OOB_DATA_k` columns, plus the `OOB_INST` etc ...

1. Using Safari browser, view a page that has a version dropdown, for example https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/5.x/
2. Click the version number on the left navigation, e.g. click on "5.x"
3. Nothing happens, even though the list of available versions should be displayed.

This issue only occurs on Safari.  Version dropdown works with Chrome/Brave/Firefox.

### Context
On the [Decentralized social networks](https://ethereum.org/en/social-networks/) use case page, the section "[Web2 Social Networks on Ethereum](https://ethereum.org/en/social-networks/#web2-social-networks-and-ethereum)" needs an update. 

Reddit discontinued its Community Points feature over a year ago ([see source](https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/17/reddit-is-phasing-out-community-points-blockchain-rewards/)), so this section should be revised accordingly.

### Task
Replace the Reddit section with another example of a Web2 social network that utilizes Ethereum and/or any Layer 2 network.

Feel free to make additional improvements to other parts of the article if needed!

### Note
This is a beginner-friendly task! Once you express interest in working on it, we'll assign you to the issue on GitHub. You can then submit your text replacement suggestion via comments.

After your suggestion is approved, we can guide you through submitting a PR. Alternatively, if you'd prefer, another contributor can handle the PR submission using your suggested amendments.

### Current State

Currently, certain function signatures in std have a mistake, they specify `contract_address: ContractAddress`, but it should be defined as `target: ContractAddress`. Update function signatures in std and tests

### Objective

It should look like `snforge_std/src/cheatcodes/storage.cairo`

### Additional Context

Places to fix 
- `snforge_std/src/cheatcodes.cairo`
- `snforge_std/src/cheatcodes/execution_info`

Update function signatures in tests on the Rust side 
- `crates/cheatnet/tests/cheatcodes`

Check the docs for mistakes.

I would expect besu to not start with this config since it's impossible to determine what is the desired behavior

`besu --Xbonsai-full-flat-db-enabled=true --Xbonsai-full-flat-db-enabled=false`
`besu --privacy-enabled=true --privacy-enabled=false`
`besu --p2p-enabled=true --p2p-enabled=false`

maybe it's only the case with boolean type args? if I try with --network or --sync-mode I get an aborted start with error message 
```
besu --sync-mode=CHECKPOINT --sync-mode=FULL
option '--sync-mode' (<MODE>) should be specified only once

To display full help:
besu [COMMAND] --help
```

besu version besu/v25.3-develop-2df5428/osx-aarch_64/oracle_openjdk-java-22

repeated CLI args should prevent startup

Currently there are no benchmarks and in a recent PR #39 it was suggested to add some to figure out what the perf gain would be.  Leaving this here as a placeholder to come back and add those as time allows

              Wouldn't it make sense to be able to have on the same row a WCP and a EUC call ? It would save up to three rows (nb of EUC calls), and won't make the MXP wider as the computation perspective is not the widest one.

Have both `WCP_XXX` and `EUC_XXX` columns in the `MXP/computation` perspective

### What feature should we add?

EIP-7702 is working well with manual transaction signing via ethereum/eth-account#316. There are undoubtedly better ways to interact and build 7702 transactions than currently exist within web3.py. Today we must do something like:

(untested, pseudocode-ish)
```py
# get the contract of interest, as an example
contract = w3.eth.contract(address=contract_address, abi=contract_abi)

acct = Account.from_key(my_key)
signed_auth = acct.sign_authorization({
    "address": contract.address,
    "nonce": w3.eth.get_transaction_count(acct) + 1,
    "chainId": w3.eth.chain_id,
})

# extract the data for the desired contract interaction
contract_call = contract.functions.myFunction(arg1, arg2).build_transaction()

tx = {
    "to": acct.address,
    ...
    "authorizationList": [signed_auth],
    "data": contract_call["data"],
}
signed_tx = acct.sign_transaction(tx)

w3.eth.send_raw_transaction(signed_tx.raw_transaction)
```

The goal would be to improve the DevEx to build and send a 7702 transaction. I believe this likely has to exist at the *web3.py*, not the *eth-account* level, as we should have access to the web3 object to facilitate `eth_chainId`, `eth_getTransactionCount` (nonce), `eth_estimateGas` calls, contract call data collection, etc.

---

Loosely, if I have a known contract and ABI, I'd like to be able to say take this account, authorize this account to behave like that contract, and build my transaction with this auth inside the "authorlzationList" while making the first call to function A on the contract. It may also be better to have a builder where there can be many iterations of this to build a single transaction with many such auths.

Enhancement

Help Wanted

A python interface for interacting with the Ethereum blockchain and ecosystem.

web3.py

What DevEx improvements can we add for 7702 transaction interactions?

Would be good if Grafana shows by default:

- multiaddr node listens on
- ENR of node
- ENRTree used for bootstrap if any

Deployment docker-compose files to deploy an nwaku node
