1.5 years ago, we launched Cyfrin Updraft. Since then, we've helped over 200k students master:. - DeFi.- Solidity.- Wallet security.- Zero-knowledge .- Smart contract development and security. You can start from 0 and become a Fortune 500 engineer or a billion-dollar founder 👇

2/ In this installment of ZK Math 101, @CiaraNightingal guides you through the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. Learn elliptic curves over finite fields and their importance in cryptography. Start today: . 🔗

The elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP) is what delivers cryptographic security 💪. Forming the foundation of blockchain tech and ZKPs. Explore how elliptic curves over finite fields enable ECDSA signatures and ZK proof systems. 👇

2/ You don’t need to be technical. You just need to be cautious, curious, and willing to learn. 🔗

“The data displayed correctly.” 💀. The evergreen refrain after getting drained. Wallet security doesn’t have to be scary, but it does have to be learned. Three hours can change how you sign transactions forever. 👇

2/ The best security minds aren’t reactive. They’re preventative. Secure web3 at its root. Start here:. 🔗

The real battle for security is in upstream code reviews and fuzz tests.🚧. Not incident response. Before mainnet, behind the scenes of live code. That’s where Updraft-trained security researchers live. Do the work and earn the glory. Find bugs and earn rewards. 👇

Learning on Cyfrin Updraft?. You can now add your badges of completion to your LinkedIn profile!. Navigate to the achievement page, and click on “add to LinkedIn”. Show recruiters what you’ve accomplished 💪

2/ Explore:.- Elliptic curves over real numbers.- The elliptic curve point addition operator.- The identity element.- Affine vs. projective coordinates. And more!. This is the seventh installment of @CiaraNightingal’s ZK math series. 🔗

You’ve heard of the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA). 📈✨. But, what is an elliptic curve? ⁉️. Dive into a technical exploration of their:.- Structure and properties.- Point addition.- Application in cryptography and ZKPs. In this installment of ZK Math 101 👇

2/ Whether you're trading, saving, or managing treasury funds, wallet safety is your edge. Don’t guess what you’re signing. Get trained. Then get free:. 🔗

Financial independence is built one signature at a time. 🗝️. Every time you approve a transaction, you move a little bit closer. Learn how to verify, decode, and sign with certainty. 👇

2/ Finding bugs before they cause millions of losses is the reward. That’s why it matters. If you want to help secure protocols, start here:

They’re not in the press release. And, you don’t see them at the TGE. Yet, Updraft-trained builders and researchers are what made these possible. They are the backbone of web3 security. They do the work before others even know there’s a risk.

RT @CiaraNightingal: All in on Cyfrin.

RT @chrisdior777: For everyone that is just starting out with Rust, here is something valuable for free. Enjoy 🫡.

RT @CyfrinAudits: Cyfrin 🤝 WLFI. We’re proud to be partnering with @worldlibertyfi to improve the security of their codebase and users.

2/ Explore group homomorphisms’ key properties. And how ZKPs use commitments to preserve relationships in proving systems like PLONK. This is the sixth installment of @CiaraNightingal’s ZK math series. Read it today:

Homomorphisms make zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) possible. But what are they and why are they necessary?. They allow us to.- Operate on data and keep the original relationships.- Compute on committed data without revealing the original values. Dive into the next ZK Math 101

RT @christopheduc: The best blockchain /web3 dev tutorials are on @CyfrinUpdraft.

2/ It’s not just a credential. It’s proof that your team takes the responsibility for signing transactions seriously. And, that they’re a safe pair of hands. 🔗
