@AndyGuzmanEth@0xjei@0xPARC we've been working on POD2, new FHE projects, obfuscation collabs, onboarding our latest summer cohort, and more. looking to write more soon :)
@chriswaclawek@serglotz@skylar_eth@0xPARC no store - we only give these away for free, but you have to run into a 0xPARC team member who has a copy on them :) at devcon anyone who collected at least 300 frogs could claim one at the frog community hub
very cool Programmable Cryptography book by @0xPARC from devcon. will need a double take on the math parts but overall nice to see how these next gen cryptographic primitives actually work and what they can do.
ORAM was new for me and particularly interesting — i wonder: does Venice AI implement ORAM? @AskVenice@ErikVoorhees@TeanaTaylor

@rob_knight talked a bit about zupass and zk tech, but mostly gave me a reading list for 2025:
Tools for Conviviality by Ivan Illich
Spheres of Justice by Michael Walzer
Whose Justice? Which Rationality? by Alasdair MacIntyre
The Ordinal Society by Kieran Healy and Marion Fourcade
The Society of the Spectacle by Guy Debord
public reminder:
if you participated to devcon, you can claim 100 testnet eth on sepolia + holesky + mekong by authenticating with zupass

On my outbound flight from Bangkok, I finished this zine that explores the ideological aesthetics of fully onchain games in the post- @darkforest_eth golden age
Some of my favorite quotes:
1/ We enjoy infinite games, and blockchain inherits our expectations and aspirations for infinity. However, due to limited blockchain computing resources and challenges in consensus synchronization, we need to set constraints on time and space to define the scope of the game.
2/ Reality surpasses the virtual. Reality embodied inherent truth, and truth signifies an unquestionable sense of order.
If you are curious about @DFArchon@darkforest_mud@mud_dev or the genesis of fully onchain gaming, this is a great start
1/ Devcon is not a conference, but an experience that shows you why Ethereum is different. The strong culture and values of Ethereum were on full display throughout the week. Our Devcon team worked tirelessly to create the space, but it was not complete without every one of you adding colors.
Big shoutout to @0xPARC for bringing the Frogcrypto app to life at #Devcon this year! 🐸
The Frogs were not just for fun, as they helped us at @DioneProtocol to engage in some of the most amazing conversations!
Thank you for turning the event into such an engaging experience for us • it's definitely the best icebreaker and community builder we have ever encountered - Looking forward to next year!! 😄 #FrogCrypto #Devcon2024 #Dione
Day 1 at Devcon!! 🔥
Insightful sessions, an incredible panel on Programmable Cryptography featuring @VitalikButerin, @barrywhitehat, @gubsheep, Albert Ni, and awesome people summed up Day 1 at @EFDevcon!
I am speaking at @EFDevcon on stage 6 in about ten minutes, about the world's first implementation of a Hallucinated Server

1/ [DEVCON🇹🇭] Speaking soon on Stage 6 @gubsheep will talk you through “How To Hallucinate A Server”, 9:45–10:10 AM. Come by the Frogcrypto Community Hub later to ENTER THE FROGZONE, an end-to-end demonstration of Multi-Party Fully Homomorphic Encryption

@VitalikButerin@GuyZys@EFDevcon@barrywhitehat functional encryption and obfuscation are effectively equivalent; if you can do one you can do the other.
FHE seems like a necessary stepping stone for both
