Leverage recursive zkRollups to batch thousands of L2 transactions into a single proof posted to Mina’s L1 🤌
Recursive zkRollups are a ZKP accumulator tool to efficiently process transactions and optimize blockspace utilization for zkApps.

Pretty cool to see a Lightning network utilising off-chain transactions for negligible fees with near-instant finality built on Mina with SnarkyJS during ETHTokyo!

Our new paper is finally on Eprint. We construct a confidential payment system on top of Ethereum. It works with Ethereum today and is compatible with other smart contracts. The techniques apply to account based payments in general. Also: extension to BP called Sigma-Bullets

New paper on batching techniques for accumulators. Applications to stateless blockchains (miners only need 2kb digest to store the entire UTXOs) and shorter STARKs/Aurora. Also new succinct proofs for groups of unknown order: eprint.iacr.org/2018/1188 Joint work: @benafisch & Dabo

Going to think loudly while I read David Chaum's @elixxir_io technical brief. Chaum is pretty much the forefather anonymous communication and is about as respected as you can be in this space. Now he's built a privacy PoS coin. I'll look silly criticizing this but, here I go.

A curious situation. The best known lower bound for the minimal length of superpermutations was proved by an anonymous user of a wiki mainly devoted to anime. mathsci.wikia.com/wiki/The_H…

Tim Geithner, Ben Bernanke, and Hank Paulson argue in the New York Times that our main political problem is insufficient authority to bail out banks. I mean, just, speechless.

Filecoin and others raised billions to build what turns out to be a really hard problem: decentralized storage and file replication. @EthanCecchetti, Ari and I identified a key building block: PIEs: Incompressible Encodings for Decentralized Storage: ia.cr/2018/684

Open source has become corporate source. Let's build a decentralized alternative: source.lol

Someone dropped this paper on IPFS and some IRC channels yesterday. It describes a new family of consensus protocols that combines the best of Nakamoto consensus with the best of classical consensus. Huge breakthrough:
