There should be more care over calling stealth addresses a privacy solution. It allows the sender to generate an address for the recipient in a non-interactive manner, replacing the need for the recipient to send a new (and unlinked) payment address. That is it. Should be viewed as a more convenient method for sending to the recipient as opposed to a strong privacy solution.

Fellas make sure you increment your private keys to stay secure. For example if your private key was "4" it should be "5" now. Follow me for more security tips.

Science is about discovering the truth of our universe. AI accelerates science. Modern (theoretical) cryptography, spun out of computational complexity theory decades ago, has built solid frameworks for constructing cryptographic primitives from *minimal* assumptions. Modern applied cryptography, though, has had to rely on many heuristics to build efficient, deployable cryptography. Yes, AI may drive short-term breakthroughs in cryptanalysis and cause turmoil in applied cryptography--certain in-deployment primitives and hardness problems *may* turn out to be "security by obscurity, in the absence of strong AI". But if we live in a universe where cryptography exists (i.e., P != NP and one-way functions exist and/or some public-key cryptography exists), AI will, in the medium to long term, help us gain confidence in truly hard problems and assumptions to base cryptography on. In the not-so-far future, I strongly believe the amount of heuristics required to prove secure deployable cryptography will decrease. The future of cryptography is bright.

Looks like wagyu dot xyz was hacked & all user data including swaps, ip addresses, countries & transactions details got leaked. @PerpetualCow refused to pay a $5 million ransom. All the information is posted on whiteArmors site

We've reviewed 16 privacy protocols to understand what they actually hide, who they hide it from, and what's still visible. How do we assess them? We've published our full methodology, and we'd love your feedback 👇

1/ privacy tools on ethereum are opt-in. privacy works better when everyone has it by default that's the idea behind pcash 🧵
