Going back pretty far in the stack this weekend, and reading the first Multikey FHE paper. Main problem statement is outsourced, private, storage and computation of weak clients that are sporadicly online. Can’t really use classic MPC protocols since they assume weak, non-interacting clients. hey propose Multikey FHE. Server computes f on subset of clients S chosen “on the fly” that may be offline. There is a lot more recent research that removes the assumption of hard problems over ideal latices and adds distributed decryption, but it's a fantastic paper to start going down the rabbit hole. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2213977.2214086

Have we really seen evidence of accelerated fragmentation? Before LLMs, I don't think I've seen anything convincing. Post ChatGPT there is a stronger argument to be made (search being one of the killer use cases), but we're far from seeing a drop in Google's dominance? Is there initial evidence search is migrating away?

I'm thrilled to announce my first investment at Haun Ventures: leading the $55M Series A for @chaos_labs. Onchain Finance has shown remarkable resilience during high volatility periods, in large part due to critical risk parameter choices by protocols. Despite these achievements, three key challenges impede DeFi protocol maturity: - Lack of actionable onchain risk information - Low frequency of onchain risk data updates - Inefficient processes for updating smart contract parameters Chaos Labs' Risk Oracles are designed to address these challenges, delivering high-granularity, real-time risk parameters onchain. I couldn’t be more excited to work closely with Omer Goldberg and the team on bringing his vision to life.

It is amazing to feel the political tail winds propelling the crypto industry forward in the 🇺🇸, but a reminder: Bitcoin does not need friendly politicians, or even regulators, to succeed.

Haven’t noticed any differences, but since I’m in 115 degree weather and sleeping in a hotel on a family trip, I would say there are too many variables to account for any changes.
