ZK has always been the proposed endgame for Ethereum scaling and is advancing faster than anticipated, aggressively pulling forward timelines. Still, there is a lack of clarity around the market design when enshrining ZK in the L1. A short 🧵of my EthCC talk on this topic ↓

"our market maker fucked us" been meaning to write about this for a while but reality is most founders in the space are retarded at expressing & pricing risk. given the strong experimentation / tinkering culture, naturally makes sense that founders think they have to "innovate"…

Alex and I are on a quest to understand how we can use cryptography beyond digital systems. What are new trust building blocks that we can build with nature? how can we use cryptography to secure physical interactions? I am so glad @ARIA_research is the home for this effort

v1 of our @ARIA_research opportunity space 'Trust Everything, Everywhere' is now live! we're focusing on new security primitives that straddle digital and physical worlds, and will be spending the next months zeroing in on a £10-100m first challenge within the space 🎯
