I've been building Confer: private AI chat where your conversations are end-to-end encrypted so that only you can access them. It's still new, but I've been using it every day and beta testing it with friends. Let me know what's missing! confer.to/blog/2025/12/confe…

Another testament to why Sui has one of the best white hat hacking security teams in the world, helping the whole blockchain industry and beyond. Our Chief Hacking Officer @JohnNaulty is a legend, he was part of the research team behind the Milk Sad Vulnerability detection media.ccc.de/v/38c3-dude-whe… and the most crazy stuff??? He launched the Church of Cryptography to teach crypto to anyone eager to learn! events.ccc.de/congress/2024/… About Milk Sad; here is the full details that affected crypto users, milksad.info/disclosure.html, I know that people like @billatnapier will be amazed how the heck crypto lib devs missed that. I ❤️working with John, this time he helped an amazing team to identify a class of vulnerabilities that exposed over a billion dollars worth of cryptocurrency to anyone willing to 'crunch the numbers'. The fatal flaw? Not enough chaos,💥 Same time - same “random” wallet! Unbelievable. A reminder that John is the “soul” behind Sui’s internet-less transactions and Mysten’s AI BugDar auto audit tool as well, @soorajs and @LoganJastremski you should interview John if you didn’t already.

Chia announced a 2-year plan to switch to a better model for proof of space. 🧵
Information on the new Plot and Proof of Space formats is now available! Check out our latest blog: chia.net/2024/08/08/approach…

The new plotting format builds on new research since Chia was released. It makes on-the-fly plotting 1000x times less practical, while keeping the requirements of normal harvesting (reading random data) nearly as low as today.

Congrats on @Mysten_Labs @SuiNetwork for hot-swapping their consensus algorithm! It went without a hitch. Mysticeti - the new algo - has key innovations over traditional tendermint.🧵

This may be solvable with a validator committee that rotates every 24 hour cycle.
