What are we really talking about when we say someone has taste? Social science can help us tease disparate ideas apart.

A prediction market price can be interpreted as a probability sensor: an estimate of aggregate beliefs about the likelihood of an event

Early-stage crypto protocols should prioritize growth through token reinvestment rather than return value through buy-and-burn mechanisms.

with Dan Boneh, Eddy Lazzarin, Justin Thaler and Liz Harkavy AI is getting better at solving hard math problems. But what does that mean for the cryptography protecting everything from banking and private messages to crypto wallets and more? We bring

Timelines to a cryptographically relevant quantum computer are frequently overstated — leading to calls for urgent, wholesale transitions to post-quantum cryptography. But the real challenge in navigating a successful migration to post-quantum cryptography is matching urgency to actual threats.

Identifying a specific rewriting of the ECDSA signing equation and a method to compute and verify it

Today we're releasing Aerie, which aggregates lattice-based signatures using lattice-based SNARKs

Today we are releasing Lattice Jolt, a new version of our open source zkVM (zero knowledge virtual machine).

Gödel Prize winner Noam Nisan on the sum-check protocol — how a "purely theoretical" proof technique became the engine behind fast, modern SNARKs.

Bitcoin often gets credited with inventing trustless consensus. It didn’t. The problem was named decades earlier — in the world of distributed computing — and researchers spent years studying how machines could reach agreement even when some participants were faulty, adversarial, or corrupt

On when and how adversarial nodes can be punished if they stall transaction confirmation in blockchains

Podcast: how blockchains are trying to maximize throughput and minimize latency
