Maze - Aggregation Tool for Circom-PLONK Proofs

Duration: 00:07:03

Speaker: Janmajaya Mall

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Oct 2022

The session aims to demo Maze, a CLI-based tool for aggregating several circom-plonk proofs into a single aggregated proof developed using Halo2 library. The session will also include a high level explanation of aggregation of plonk proofs using Proof Carrying Data (PCD).

Scalable multi-party FHE with Phantom-zone

The talk introduces "phantom-zone", a framework to write scalable consumer facing MPC apps using multi-party FHE. Starting with what's multi-party FHE, talk gives a demo of non-trivial MPC app. Followed by introduction to programming model of MPC apps using multi-party FHE inside phantom-zone. Then the talk dives deep into primitives to realise multi-party FHE and ends with advanced FHE gadgets that further enhance multi-party FHE.

Multi-Party FHE for Multi-Player Privacy

Privacy is an unsolved challenge for blockchains and decentralized systems. ZK cryptography gets us there partially, but not all the way. ZK enables “single-player private state,” and certain other kinds of privacy are impossible to realize with ZKPs alone. Panelists, the cryptography library devs, infrastructure builders, and application devs who have recently started to explore programmable encryption will discuss MP-FHE as one such tool for achieving more general privacy capabilities.

Tending the Infinite Garden: Organizational Culture in the Ethereum Ecosystem

This presentation will discuss the findings of the academic paper "Tending the Infinite Garden: Organisational Culture in the Ethereum Ecosystem" by Dr. Paul-Dylan-Ennis and Ann Brody. Our study examines the decision-making processes fundamental to Ethereum's protocol governance, drawing on interviews with Ethereum's core developers. We identify a central worldview in Ethereum known as the "Infinite Garden" and discuss how Ethereum's social layer is crucial for upholding cypherpunk values.

Keynote: Lessons learned from Tor

I will share lessons learned during Tor's twenty years as free software fighting for privacy and human rights. We'll talk about distributed trust and privacy by design, how to help people understand the good uses of your tech, getting allies in both cypherpunks and government, why transparency and community-building are so essential to trust, and successes from other spaces. It may seem like the crypto wars never really end, but we all have a part to play in saving the world.

Keynote: Glass Houses and Tornados

The Tornado Cash sanctions and criminal prosecutions have challenged longstanding assumptions within crypto about the limits of money transmission licensing, money laundering statutes, and sanctions laws. They've also revealed a longstanding assumption from some in policy and law enforcement circles: that blockchains have always been and must remain transparent. Neither assumption has served us well and the time has come for legal certainty. This talk is about how we get there.

Keynote: How to Properly Open Source Software: Lessons Learned from the Linux Foundation

It can be challenging to properly open source software: there are licenses, IP, security reporting, and many other issues that need to be addressed. In this talk, we will discuss the best practices for open source software development learned from almost 25 years of experience at the Linux Foundation. Attendees will learn about how to set up their projects for a variety of potential goals, including things like maximizing security and community building.
