Vitalik Buterin’s report explores digital minimalism through personal experiments with social‑media interfaces and phone connectivity. He finds that reducing algorithmic exposure and limiting cell data improves mental well‑being and privacy.
Vitalik Buterin’s report examines how Ethereum will evolve from a traditional blockchain into a “cryptographic world computer” by 2030. He finds that advances in proof‑of‑stake, zero‑knowledge proofs and multi‑party block construction will fundamentally reshape user trade‑offs and scalability.
The report examines the emerging "local mixing" approach to cryptographic obfuscation and outlines its construction pipeline. It finds that while conceptually promising, current implementations still suffer from prohibitive overhead and unresolved security gaps.
The report examines diamond iO, a newer style of indistinguishability obfuscation that builds on BGG+14 ABE. It finds that diamond iO reduces runtime from galactic to planetary scale, making practical deployment a few optimizations away.
