Talk in just a few hours! 🗞️ eprint.iacr.org/2024/1552

Exciting to present it in the very same venue where I wrote a big chunk of it while attending @rightscon.org !

Got invited to @college-de-france.fr for a seminar about zero-knowledge and online anonymity! 🎉🎉🎉

Thrilled to announce that my latest paper with Alessandro Chiesa has been accepted to TCC, the IACR conference on the theory of cryptography!

at this conference everyone has 4+ coauthors except me lol

I'll present my latest paper on anonymous credentials and designated-verifier kzg at ACM CCS 2025 in Taipei!

Our paper "Beyond the Circuit" was accepted at IACR's Communications in Cryptology!
It contains a few simple protocols for simplifying foreign arithmetic in zero-knowledge proofs. Formally we introduce "Σ-reductions", a mix of "Σ-protocols" and "reductions of knowledge".
