The Foundation announced a $1 million Poseidon Prize to harden a key cryptographic function, adding to the $1 million Proximity Prize announced last year.
Author of the Network State, Balaji Srinivasan, argues that the future of property and ownership will run on cryptography, specifically, blockchain technology. His vision extends beyond crypto assets to encompass nearly all valuable assets in society, from money and stocks to cars and real estate. Let’s break it down. The Balaji thesis: from digital gold […]

One of ZKNox's goals is to make post-quantum cryptographic operations more efficient on Ethereum, securing the chain for a quantum computing future.
Hundreds of millions of SSNs have been leaked online already, but a privacy-focused identity solution could help fix the problem.
The post-quantum era is still “several decades away,” but it could be a net positive for the Bitcoin network’s security.
Blockchain technology has a clear path to quantum-resistant security. Quantum computing challenges cryptography, but zero-knowledge proofs offer a solution.
The cryptography firm is launching an Ethereum Virtual Machine coprocessor enabling full end-to-end encryption and private smart contracts.
Vitalik Buterin shared his plan for “The Splurge,” with the goal to “fix everything else” in upgrading Ethereum, including planning for encryption-breaking computers.
Quantum bits currently require temperatures between approximately -200 degrees Celsius to -270 degrees Celsius to operate properly.
The crypto world is full of technical terms, some of which are so difficult that almost no one understands them.

Blockchain Capital and 1kx co-led the Series A round that will back the development of a new computing chip focused on data privacy.
The deal brings Polygon’s cumulative zero-knowledge technology investment to over $1 billion, the company said. Toposware’s team is behind Polygon’s Type 1 Prover technology.
The funding found was led by Multicoin Capital and Protocol Labs and included participation from Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko and Ethereum and Polkadot co-founder Gavin Wood. The 'FHE' technology allows for processing of encrypted data, useful for privacy in blockchain and AI.
Quantum computers pose an outsized threat to status quo cryptographic solutions.
