Read more: https://ethdaily.io/657https://spotify.comListen on: Apple | Spotify | Castbox EF Introduces An Advisory GroupThe Ethereum Foundation launched the EF Silviculture Society, an advisory group consisting of eleven external individuals who will offer informal feedback to the foundation. The inaugural members include MilliΞ, Lefteris, Vectorized.eth, and Polar. Vitalik Buterin stated that the roles are unpaid and will serve for one year. The society establishes channels for Ethereum Foundation employees to seek advice from the group. Vitalik also mentioned that there are future plans to include more initiatives and frameworks to involve the community in a broader range of issues and formats.Vitalik On AI And Human GovernanceVitalik Buterin released a new blog post discussing the integration of AI into democratic systems, where AI serves as an operational tool while humans guide strategic decisions. Emphasizing the importance of credible neutrality, Buterin outlined three steering mechanisms: Futarchy, Distilled Human Judgment, and Deep Funding. In Futarchy, governance decisions are driven by prediction markets. Distilled Human Judgment involves a jury system that answers a large number of questions, focusing on providing high-quality responses to a select few. Deep Funding employs human judgment to allocate credits within a graph structure to reward contributions. The AI and human mechanisms can allow DAOs to operate under human direction without burdening voters with an overwhelming number of decisions.Safe Restores Service On ArbitrumSafe, the leading provider of smart contract wallets, has restored its wallet services for transactions on Arbitrum One via the safe.global interface. Safe users can also conduct transactions on Ethereum Mainnet. The Safe.Global interface was temporarily disabled last weekend following the $1.5 billion ByBit exploit. Users are urged to thoroughly verify transaction signatures on their hardware devices before approving them. Safe smart accounts are also accessible through alternative interfaces like OnChainDen. Safe plans to restore its front end services on more networks in the coming weeks.ZKsync Introduces Community ProgramZKsync introduced the ZKsync Community Program, a six-month initiative designed to recognize and reward significant contributions to the ZKsync ecosystem. The program allocates a total of 5 million ZK tokens in rewards, distributed monthly based on the impact of contributions. Roles such as Moderators, Captains, and Mateys are eligible for rewards, with their contributions being assessed and verified on Gitcoin. The program will kick off on March 7th.Other NewsOpenSea supports UnichainOP Labs deprecates custom gas tokensBase’s view on the Fusaka fork.Holesky recovery updateBLS consensus issue reportFileverse ddocs updatesSee disclosures
