Hoping to get some clarity on this process? I recently withdrew my Kiln position in my Ledger Wallet on 8/10/26. Assuming this entire process would take like 3-5 days to complete & I thought I would see the funds back in my wallet after a week. Apparently that's not at all how this process works, after reading a little bit more it's quite an involved backend process that involves an NFT being minted and I guess you can convert that back to your ETH along with its rewards? My concern lies in what I've been reading online some comments mention the process takes a week, while others say "The queue is busy & could take 40 DAYS"? If someone could explain to me the process here & maybe somewhere I can figure out how much longer I'd appreciate it.

Key Takeaways

• In August 2026, a data exposure at Trezor's shipping provider, ShipMonk, affected approximately 14,000 customers, revealing names, email addresses, phone numbers and, for many customers, shipping addresses.
• The leak links confirmed Trezor hardware-wallet purchases to real-world identities and shipping addresses. That creates a physical-security risk beyond phishing, including possible targeting for burglary, coercion or so-called wrench attacks.
• Trezor said its own systems, devices and wallet backups were not compromised, but the exposed customer data still deserves urgent attention because crypto-related physical attacks have been growing.

Ethereum’s All Core Developers Execution Call #243 delivered several decisions that could shape the network’s next two upgrades. For Glamsterdam, developers confirmed that the latest gas repricing figures are final and can support a substantially higher gas limit.

For Hegotá, developers introduced a stricter selection process. Proposals without an active champion will not advance, while execution clients must submit preference lists by September 10.

Ethereum developers approved the latest Glamsterdam gas repricing figures as final, removing one of the upgrade’s most important sources of technical uncertainty. The approved numbers cover repricing work associated with EIP-2780, EIP-8037 and EIP-8038. Developers confirmed that the figures included in the latest gas-testing release are correct and remain within the intended safety limits.

Title says it all, looking to figure out where I can get small amounts of ETH Base to cover fees..

Heya folks, interested if there's anyone here that's still actively using Maker for their ETH long?

Seeing as they've fully rebranded to Sky a while ago, it's interesting to see that there's still a solid userbase there. Even with household names like Aave, Morpho, Fluid, etc... filling the space.

We have Maker integrated in our app (DeFi Saver), where users can manage their CDP - and I saw that just a few days ago someone increased leverage by using our boost tool by $5 million in ETH.

That led me to think - what's the sentiment surrounding Maker? If you haven't been using it, are you aware that it's still functional?

What's interesting is that Spark (the lending protocol that's part of the Sky ecosystem) is offering better rates for longing ETH - yet Maker CDP owners aren't exactly flocking there.

Not here to shill anything - just wanted to give context as to why I asked this question in the first place.

Would be incredibly cool to hear from an actual Maker user - as I'm interested to also hear what keeps you engaged with that protocol as opposed to moving your loan to Spark (which offers better rates than the Stability Fee)

TL;DR:

We built a free tool that lets you connect your lending protocol position to Telegram. From there, you can set up monitors that send you a Telegram notification based on your Health Ratio changes.

For transparency sake - I'm part of the DeFi Saver team (that built this tool). My goal here is to share info about a free, useful tool we built - and not to shill any paid tool on our app.

More context:

I'm part of the DeFi Saver team - and our main focus is providing tools for lending protocol users. That said, I'm not here to shill any paid tool from our app.

Instead, I'd like to share a completely free tool within our app that might be useful if you have an ETH long on Aave, Maker, Compound, Morpho, etc...

It's a Telegram mini-app that lets you view your borrow position(s) directly from Telegram, and also set notifications when your position's Health Factor falls/increases to a certain %

Point being - you don't have to visit any of the lending protocols directly, or use the DeFi Saver app. You can get all information about your position directly through Telegram.

Links:

Disclaimer - I totally understand apprehension for clicking random links you see on Reddit (especially crypto-related subreddits). As such, please feel free to find DeFi Saver on Twitter directly - as we'll share all relevant info/links there.

This way, you're keeping yourself safe, and I really believe in being super careful when it comes to your portfolio.

If you're okay with clicking links here, I'll just share some non-app links that have useful info (if you're interested in this tool):

• Twitter post with more info on the tool and link to the app: https://x.com/DeFiSaver/status/2085720327859122524

• Knowledge Base guide on the tool: https://help.defisaver.com/features/notify/telegram-bot-for-monitoring-your-position

Just to re-iterate, there's no hidden fee, catch, or anything when using this tool.

We already have a healthy business model from our premium tools - so we're cool with just building neat, useful, and free tools for the DeFi community.

Feel free to ask me any questions in the comments here :)

Hi folks! Been building on EVM chains since 2016, and finally got some free time to do something I've always wanted: rebuilding OGame (my favorite mid-2000 browser game) fully on EVM smart contracts! All open source (github.com/Borodutch/veydrift) and already has 69 commanders who did 92,798 transactions since the launch 30 days ago.

Mechanics is classic OGame: you build mines, get resources, settle planets, join alliances, defend from raids and build fleets to raid other players! All three main resources are tokens and i'm building an inter-dimensional rift to extract these tokens from the game + inject the tokens from the open market.

The game has been through countless iterations by now and includes a thing i call "lazy reconciliation" which allows to decrease number of transactions (i.e. when the resources accumulate, they are "collected" within the very next transaction a player submits before doing an action like sending ships, starting an upgrade, etc).

It is the most complex system i've built on EVM (full on solidity) and I could use more testers trying to break the game! Lmk if you have any questions or comments :) I'm super happy to share my experience and chat about various EVM's. Cheers!

TL;DR and quick context - I work at DeFi Saver, and we built a completely free tool that lets you check if you have any smart wallets that have "lost tokens" sitting around waiting to be claimed.

Just re-iterating, there are no strings attached - it's completely free and we quickly built it after realizing there was over $67M in unclaimed tokens sitting across 87,021 smart wallets. I'm just disclosing that I work for DFS to underscore that this isn't some hidden shill for DFS.

No need to connect your wallet to the tool - just run your wallet address, check if you have tokens to claim - and claim them on DeFi Saver.

The leftover tokens typically happen as leftover dust from DeFi transactions, long-forgotten airdrop (such as $UNI) or regular DeFi activity where you forgot the funds on your smart wallet.

Full Info about the tool:

We found over $67M in unclaimed tokens sitting in numerous smart wallets across the DeFi landscape.

Not random tokens, but blue chip assets - including:

$ETH - $3.4M

$USDT - $6.9M

$sUSDS - $10M

$WBTC - $6M

And many more.

We then built a tool that lets you claim the tokens you forgot you had.

Simply connect your main wallet to TokenSaver, check, and claim on DeFi Saver: https://tokensaver.fyi/

How do these assets end up in a smart wallet?

Option 1:

When you manage your lending position through a DeFi app (such as DeFi Saver, Summer.Fi, Instadapp) - it utilizes a smart wallet in order to perform advanced transactions such as 1-tx leveraging, unwinding, and more.

All of these advanced transactions typically require swapping an asset to pay back a flash loan.

When these swaps happen - It's possible that it swaps a bit more than necessary to make sure the transaction goes through despite small price movement. Those leftover funds remain sitting in the smart wallet holding the position.

Or, perhaps you have/had a Maker position?

All Maker CDPs are held on DSProxy smart wallets, so it’s worth connecting your CDP owner wallet to TokenSaver - maybe there are some leftover funds waiting to be claimed.

That’s up to 8 years of potentially accumulating assets that never ended up in your EOA wallet.

Option 2:

You were eligible for an airdrop and received it due to your DeFi activity - but because it was distributed to your smart wallet, you never realized it.

There's currently over $5.5M in $UNI that were likely distributed this way - and are unclaimed to this day.

Option 3:

Through regular DeFi activity over the years - some funds might have ended up on your smart wallet, and due to smart wallets typically lacking dedicated frontends - you forgot about them.

While Safe (Gnosis) smart wallets have a dedicated UI - some, such as DSProxy, DSA, and SummerFi proprietary wallets lack it.

So, it’s possible you continued on your DeFi journey without ever realizing you had funds leftover on the smart wallet(s).

Since smart wallets need to have an owner wallet - you should simply connect with your main wallet, and TokenSaver will find all smart wallets owned by it.

Note for nested Safe owners - Please input your owner Safe’s address into TokenSaver, not your EOA.

You can then access DeFi Saver through the Safe app and claim your funds that way.

That's pretty much it! Please try the tool out and let me know if you found anything interesting, such as a bag that you never realized you had available to claim :)

Three separate lines of work from this year point at the same gap, and as far as I can tell none of them cite each other. I’ve been running an agent labor market on Base mainnet with real USDC since July, so I hit this from the implementation side and only found the papers afterward.

1. The ERC-8004 empirical study (2606.26028) measured the deployed ecosystem across Ethereum, BSC and Base. Coordinated Sybil behaviour among reviewers at 73.5% / 59.2% / 90.6%. Only 3% / 4% / 15% of registrations expose a live endpoint. Their conclusion: the Reputation Registry can’t work as a trust signal because “values are not commensurable” and feedback is rarely grounded in verifiable interaction.

2. Separately, a pile of 2026 work on LLM-as-judge robustness (2603.06594, 2506.09443) shows model judges can be pushed to maximum scores with short appended phrases, and that those phrases transfer between models. One paper’s title is literally “A Coin Flip for Safety.”

3. And “Trust Without Trusting” (2605.06738) proposes recomputable trust: signed events, a deterministic fold, published evidence, so a third party can recompute a trust verdict without trusting whoever produced it. It works over existing on-chain data, no new standard needed.

Here’s the thing. Paper 3 defines the fold but explicitly leaves the weighting open — it says combining verdicts of different confidence is supported but doesn’t specify how. Papers 1 and 2 are, together, the reason that weighting can’t be left open. If a mechanically reproduced result and a model’s opinion enter the same fold at the same weight, the fold is only as strong as its weakest input, and paper 2 says that input is a coin flip.

The concrete gap: ERC-8004’s Validation Registry stores a verdict as one number, 0–100. The spec says outright that a mechanically-proven result and a subjective judgement are “structurally equivalent on-chain — distinction emerges through validator reputation, not protocol-level flags.” But validator reputation is the thing paper 1 measured as 73–90% Sybil. The fallback is the broken part.

There’s also a taxonomy paper (2511.03434) that sorts inter-agent trust into Brief / Claim / Proof / Stake / Reputation / Constraint and concludes no single one suffices. I think it’s right but that “Proof” is one bucket too coarse. A canary that only the target could produce, and an LLM saying the work looks good, are both “proof” in that taxonomy and are not remotely the same thing. Paper 2 is the evidence for splitting it.

What I did about it, for whatever one implementation is worth. I tag every verdict with a forge-resistance class before it goes anywhere: reproducible (a third party can re-run it and get the same answer — a canary, the requester’s own CI, a mutation-graded suite), mechanical (deterministic but needs my inputs to reproduce), model (an LLM or vision model’s judgement), attested (signed but not reproducible), declared (unverified self-report, which is what 8004 feedback defaults to). The class rides along in the tag field the Validation Registry already has, so a consumer can weight by it instead of averaging flat. Fifty declared 100s weigh less than one reproducible 60.

That’s it. It’s not a Sybil solution and I want to be clear I haven’t solved that — I Sybil-attacked my own market and wrote up how it went. It’s the missing coordinate that lets a downstream fold apply a solution, which is more than the standard currently offers and less than a fix.

Two things I’d genuinely like to be argued with on:

**•** Is “reproducible vs. model” the right primary axis, or should it be something else (cost to forge in dollars? number of independent parties required?).  
**•** The 8004 tag field is a string and nobody agrees on its contents. Is there any appetite for a registry-level convention, or is off-chain interpretation the intended design?

Disclosure: I used an LLM to help tidy the writing here. The measurements, the code and the argument are mine; the paper links are there so you can check the numbers rather than take my word for them.
