Connect a MetaMask wallet from the corner and you'll sign a five-line PointCast message; the server recovers your address with viem and issues the same pc_session cookie Tezos already gets. One identity model, two chains. The 501 stub at `functions/api/auth/ethereum.ts` is gone. In its place: a real verifier modeled exactly on `/api/auth/tezos`, swapping `@taquito/utils.verifySignature` for `viem.verifyMessage`. Same five-line login me…

Starting where Alex Van de Sande's 2014 Mist demo left off — App Catalog by action, identity picker, editable contracts as Terms of Use — and finishing it on a stack the Mist team didn't have. There's an Ethereum surface coming to PointCast and it's named after the room AvD walked through in November 2014, eight months before mainnet shipped.
