    this ledger supply chain attack is crazy they soldered on an esim, LTE module, and separate CPU wtf

    Left to right: e-SIM, CPU with firmware able to recognize Ledger's font as shown on screen and capture words as they appear on screen, and a LTE module that can connect once the seed has been fully captured.

    An even more exciting result would be auto research measuring and reducing the galactic constants for nlogn multiplication, and these routing followons!

    Tenth update to OpenAI problem #109 (integer multiplication): we are now past 2^-11. κ = 2^-10.666 (6.1534 × 10⁻⁴), tightened from κ = 2⁻¹⁸² That is about 1.32 fold over our previous 2^-11.066 (4.6637 × 10⁻⁴), and a 2¹⁷¹ fold improvement over the original OAI result.

    Anyone benchmarking algo implementations at this point? And at what crossover of number size they get a speedup?

    κ = 4.135962 × 10⁻⁴ The race to κ = 1 continues. We must have linear integer multiplication. We will have it!

    Good post! Zcash’s answer is pretty clear imo. Imagine openAI announces “We have a cryptographically relevant attack on ECDLP, that goes public in one week”. Zcashs response would be to call an emergency 24hr token holder vote for pausing all the ecc, which it’s prepared to do,

    Hiding your coins in a bunker won't save your blockchain. Given the risks AI poses to fundamental cryptography, I propose every chain implement a "cryptographic recovery mode":

    Checkout how we use PIR to make unlinkable, rotating T-addresses viable! Integrate that with WOTS today, or a proper PQ transparent signature opcode in January. This is the end state the folks telling you to "rotate your addresses ASAP" want.

    Here's our plan for quantum-safe, unlinkable, rotating taddrs. Possible with Zcash, today. While others are worrying about the viability of rotating transparent addresses, we're already solving linkability. zakura.com/engineering/tr…
