Hey @konopkja can you assign this to me? I'd like to work on this. Thank you.

panditdhamdhere commented 3 months ago

@konopkja Hi can I know where on which page I have to create PR.

konopkja commented 3 months ago

This would be a brand new page. - A subpage of https://ethereum.org/en/eth/ likely

panditdhamdhere commented 3 months ago

Yeah! But where I've to submit the content. Apologise!

Thank you

konopkja commented 3 months ago

not sure i follow, can you be more specific?

pettinarip commented 3 months ago

Yeah! But where I've to submit the content. Apologise!

Thank you

Hey @panditdhamdhere, thanks for helping on this!

So, for this new page we would want it to live under https://ethereum.org/en/eth/supply

To do that, you will need to:

  1. Create a new md file under https://github.com/ethereum/ethereum-org-website/blob/dev/public/content/eth/supply/index.md (you will need to create the folders as well)
  2. Add the new path "/eth/supply" to the temporalAllowedPages array under https://github.com/ethereum/ethereum-org-website/blob/dev/src/lib/utils/md.ts#L30

Then, inside the new md file, you will need to add a bit of frontmatter and then the content:

---
title: ETH supply
description: ...
lang: en
---

Content...

Thats all. LMK if you get stuck or need help!

This issue is stale because it has been open 30 days with no activity.

konopkja commented 2 weeks ago

Hello, upon internal review with the core team we decided to close linked PR as we need a more thorough page on issuance. We will likely reuse some of the content here and combine it with https://ethereum.org/en/roadmap/merge/issuance/#how-the-merge-impacts-eth-supply content that is more specific.

Hi I would like to cover this topic, first draft I may write until the end of November. Thank you!

Suggested structure: 1) Introduction

2) What is ETH Issuance?

3) Historical Background of ETH Issuance

4) ETH Supply and Issuance Today

5) Factors Influencing Future ETH Supply and Issuance

6) Conclusion Recap of key points: current supply, effects of PoS and EIP-1559, and future of ETH issuance.

Hi @Hedwika thank you for picking this up!

This article should be very low effort read for beginners with minimal technical language and web3 jargon. (= how would you explain eth issuance to your non crypto friends who dont even have wallet and only use exchanges?)

The structure makes mostly sense, just keep in mind that the article limit should be up to 1000 words which will force you to prioritize certain topics over others maybe.

Few concerns:
