Ten years after The DAO hack changed Ethereum forever, Griff Green returns to Epicenter to discuss the next chapter: the DAO Security Fund.
As a co-initiator of The DAO, Griff shares the untold story of recovering funds after the hack, why over 75,000 ETH remained untouched for years, and how its staking yield is now funding public goods for Ethereum security. The conversation also explores a provocative idea: Ethereum is incredibly secure—but still not safe for everyday users.
Topics covered:
1. The inside story of The DAO and its recovery
2. Why the DAO hack may be the only hack where everyone made money
3. The DAO Security Fund and funding Ethereum security
4. Quadratic funding, grants & public goods
5. Why phishing and UX remain Ethereum's biggest weakness
6. Can Ethereum become safer than traditional banks?
7. The future of safer wallets, OpSec, and the Ethereum Economic Zone
