           Think FHE is too early? Maybe too early is on time. Today we're introducing the Zama Developer Program. A clear path to take developers from FHE beginners to founders of the next blockchain unicorn. Read more:

              A way to support, recognize, reward and fast track the builders who choose primitives over trends.

             The best builders have terrible timing. They showed up to Bitcoin when it was “magic internet money”. They coded smart contracts when gas was cheap because no one cared. They studied ZK when everyone said it was too complex. They were all too early. Until they weren't.

             Almost got scammed today. A deepfake Zoom call, impersonating a @0xPolygon founder, was sent by someone I actually know in real life. If you’re in crypto, you need to read this.

             Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure, with assistance from Elon Musk. The goal seems to be to get activists to switch away from encrypted Signal to mostly-unencrypted Telegram. I want to talk about this a bit. 1/

             Excluding bots, 13% of all incoming requests (over TLS 1.3) are secured with post-quantum encryption now. This will continue to grow: not even half of Chrome users have upgraded to 124 that enables PQC by default. We're well on track for 25% next week. Will we hit 35% even? 
           Nearly a week in to the release of @googlechrome 124, and post-quantum encrypted requests have now grown to over 13% of @Cloudflare global TLS 1.3 request traffic. Want the latest on post-quantum? @bwesterb shares details at  https://t.co/9zcoGXjuFS

             I have been trying to make sense of the recent proposed quantum algorithm for Learning-With-Errors, and what it means in practice. To do so I have created a document where I put my thoughts. Some may disagree with these thoughts, some may agree....  https://t.co/kwdEhJIcTD

             It’s being very difficult to follow all the discussions around the Chen24 attack here (almost as if this was not the right platform for that(!)). I propose to use the hashtag #eprint555 for all posts related. Thanks!
