Did you know spez, CEO of Reddit, edited people's comments on Reddit?

Coze stops that.

Coze signed messages are impossible to edit by third parties.

How our developer team iterates new designs:

[Paul Miller @paulmillr]

noble-curves got audited by @trailofbits. The JS library for elliptic curve cryptography is production-ready now. https://t.co/Sw9V3UzBXn

The audit has been funded by Ryan Shea. Check out the report at https://t.co/gZQvWEnEMk

[Paul Miller @paulmillr]

Last, but not least: new minimal JS QR reader and decoder for node.js and browser is out. Good choice for Dapps with only 1800 lines of code. https://t.co/h5EeZ4b9qn

And remember:
Information is fundamental!

We will make videos explaining this work further soon™. This is just the
tip of the iceberg. I'm also eager to share our other works soon as I believe
they will have far reaching impacts.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

I consider base conversion an important yet largely unaddressed area of study
for computer science. There's a lot more work to be done regarding
generalization and efficient transcoding.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Typical industry methods are about 75% efficient.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

We've deployed these principles to disciplines outside of QR codes. For
example, by using our arbitrary base conversion libraries, https://t.co/UaGovea7xd's database
backend is 100% efficient. It is informationally impossible to store data more
efficiently.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Arbitrary base conversion is especially useful for cryptographic digests, as
they have a small and known size (for example, 256 bits). This limits the
amount of computation needed for conversion. Compute is cheap; keeping
storage costs down is more significant than ever.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Instead of depending on compression for storage efficiency gains, as most of the
industry currently does, further gains are only realized by efficient encoding.
One method of realizing efficient encoding is base conversion.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Since cryptography is informationally efficient, compression results (on
average) in **larger** outputs. You read that right! Compressing cryptographic
payloads results in larger, not smaller, outputs. Compression is useless for
cryptography.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Good cryptography is **incompressible** because it is maximally entropic.
Incompressibility is a hallmark of efficient information encoding.

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

What's arbitrary base conversion? See the example encoding the ASCII
JSON "Hello World!" into DNA. (Yes, you read that right, encoding JSON into
DNA!)

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Play with the tool and have fun! The best way to gain an intuitive
understanding of base conversion is to play with base conversion.

Here's our patent in practice:

https://t.co/YinZGpGQl2

[Cyphr.me @CyphrMe]

Our QR codes are 22.8% smaller than the industry standard, which means they are
easier to read, easier for users to scan, and less prone to errors.
