2. EIP-5559 Discussion @NameSys

  • Draft here: [Draft-5] EIP-5559: Off-Chain Data Write Protocol
  • Cross-chain write deferral protocol incorporating secure write deferrals to generic L1s, Ethereum L2s, centralised databases and decentralised & mutable storages
  • Going through comments, looking at edge cases
  • Please read through draft (fifth iteration) and post any questions in the thread
  • Q: Do partners such as Coinbase, Uniswap etc. have input on standards
  • A: Behind the scenes get input, want to ensure one large organization doesn’t write standards just for themselves, need standards for ecosystem.
  • A: Let’s get Telegram group together so all stakeholders can sync outside of the ENS forum thread

3. Project Highlights @moritz

Mortiz Boullenger from https://fluidkey.com

  • Production ready alpha on Optimism
  • Problem trying to solve: When want onchain privacy usually just spin up new wallet, difficult to manage.
  • With Fluidkey, each payment sent to your private Fluidkey ENS is automatically directed to a new address that only you can control
  • Manage full balance in the Fluidkey dashboard and send payments without having to move funds between addresses
  • Q: Is stealth address generation centralized?
  • A: Yes, FluidKey API generating addresses on behalf of users, have thoughts on paths to make this decentralized

@gregskril presenting personal project

  • Rewrite as Cloudflare Worker by gskril · Pull Request #3 · gskril/ens-api · GitHub
  • API that does stand -alone services on the side including avatar optimizations and batch resolution
  • If want to resolve 100 names on a page (e.g. leaderboard), this makes this batch resolution simple
  • Sometime avatar files are massive, proxy tool resizes and strips malicious data from files
  • Follow along and reach out if find tools interesting
  • Comment from @lightwalker.eth: Would be cool to see stronger caching of ENS avatars than what service currently provides
  • Q from Thomas: Any denial of service in past from really large ENS profile photo avatars?
  • A: Metadata service provides checks, but not sure about special handling of size, will look into it. Cloudflare Worker tool good at providing checks

4. Review any upcoming events with ENS involvement

  • EthDenver: 29 February IRL Event, 6-9pm
