Ethereum is now Proof-of-Stake!
I have my Gnosis Chain at-home validator running and added four additional validators to it tonight, for a total of eight validators. One of my validators proposed block 4,830,917!
Waiting for the Ethereum mainnet merge? Make your Gitcoin grants!
I supported ENS Fairy, POAPin, Internet Archive, EFF, and ethstaker in Grant Round 15.
My grants were matched 10x! 💰 I love how you can see the direct transfers in the transaction.
Participated in my first POAP Art canvas tonight as part of the merge call. Painted my “Thing” moniker in the lower right part of the canvas. 🤩
Final Version
Here is the final completed canvas. I had to defend my pixels many times when people tried to take them over. Thing FTW! 🤩
Excited to watch the Ethereum merge happen live tonight!
Looking forward to the Ethereum mainnet merge tonight, and digging my Ropsten and Goerli merge POAP tokens. ❤️ POAP! 🤩
TeamSPS 2022 Kubb Tournament
We had our 4th annual TeamSPS Kubb Tournament today. We were graced with impeccable weather to throw some Kubb. We had 16 teams of five or six people. The tournament format we used was very similar to last year, and simple to play. We had four round robin groups of four teams each. They played three single-game rounds, time limited at 25 minutes. At the end of 25 minutes the team with the most baseline Kubbs standing was declared the winner. A throw off would have been used on a baseline tie, but that wasn’t even needed.
After the round robins were completed we ranked each team first to fourth in their group, and then went out into four simple brackets to get a winner from each.
We did have a bit of a surprise when the sprinkler system at SPS Tower turned on while we were still playing. It continued and interfered with one final game, but everyone was a good sport about getting a little wet. 💦
Final results of the #LeadTheWay bracket gave the overall with to Rubiks Kubb!
This is such a great event and everyone has a wonderful time. I can’t wait to direct the 2023 Tournament!
Meow Wolf
Meow Wolf seems impossible to describe. They describe their mission as
We create immersive and interactive experiences that transport audiences of all ages into fantastic realms of story and exploration.
They certainly are doing that. Tammy and I found Meow Wolf incredible at every turn. We could have spent much more time here, and will definitely return with the kids at the earliest opportunity. It felt like we were walking inside of an art experience. There are hidden gems everywhere, and even better it is all connected with an overarching story. Simply incredible. If you are in Denver, Santa Fe, or Las Vegas — GO!
