Read more: https://ethdaily.io/597https://spotify.comEthereum Protocol Attackathon The Ethereum Foundation introduced the first-ever Ethereum Protocol Attackathon, a large-scale crowdsourced security audit contest hosted on Immunefi. With a $1.5 million prize pool, the competition invites both auditing firms and individual security researchers to identify critical vulnerabilities in the Ethereum protocol. The event runs from November 25, 2024, to January 20, 2025. The Attackathon Academy offers technical walkthroughs and educational content to prepare participants. During the competition, researchers can hunt for bugs while having direct access to project teams. After the event, Immunefi will showcase the results through a leaderboard, detailed reports, and NFT awards.Voting Opens For ZIP-001 Protocol DefenseVoting is now open for the first ZKsync Improvement Proposal (ZIP), titled "Protocol Defense." The proposal focuses on improving code readability, maintainability, gas efficiency, and compatibility with Ethereum standards. Key updates include adopting custom errors, implementing stricter linting rules, introducing floating compiler versions, and applying minor gas optimizations. The proposal also enables chains to charge for the overhead of Layer 1 interactions. The enhancements are fully backward-compatible with no disruption to existing contracts or applications. The changes were audited by OpenZeppelin with no critical or high-severity issues found. Voting will remain open until December 2nd.Farcaster Introduces Frames V2Farcaster introduced the Frames V2 specification, a revamped standard designed to tackle developer challenges, such as slow image rendering and limited functionality for interactive apps. The update enables developers to build interactive apps that support onchain transactions, user notifications, and enhanced interactivity. Frames are applications that are seamlessly integrated into Farcaster apps. Developers can leverage Frames to create dynamic features and responsive in-cast commands. With the Frames SDK, developers gain access to tools for saving frames, initiating onchain transactions, and enabling wallet interactions. Key updates include context access, action APIs, and Ethereum wallet provider integration. Currently, in a draft stage, Frames v2 is set to launch in the coming week.Phantom Wallet Supports BaseMobile and browser-based wallet Phantom rolled out support for transactions on Base for all users. Phantom users can now seamlessly swap tokens between Base and Solana, as well as interact with Base's DeFi and NFT applications. The addition makes Base the first Layer 2 network supported on Phantom.Other NewsGet Involved with EthereumMetaMask suffers RPC outageSame Slot vs. Next Slot Inclusion ListHashdex S-1 ETH/BTC Index ETFPerena launches Numeraire stable pool
