The Edge Podcast YIELD TALKS: A New Way To Track Burned ETH With BETH
Zak is a long time Ethereum developer and a member of the Ethereum Community Foundation (ECF).
In this brief Yield Talks session, we discuss a clever new idea for tracking tokenized burned ETH called BETH, designed to make it easily visible and auditable for anyone who's voluntarily burns ETH to improve ETH's monetary value. Zak shares how it might be useful for Ethereum ecosystem players such as L2s, who could prove how much ETH they've burned from transaction fees with BETH.
