Episode 21: Introduction to Zero Knowledge Proofs

In this episode, we kick off the Zero Knowledge Proof series with our very own ‘Intro to Zero Knowledge’ in which we go through a couple examples that describe the underlying concept of this important field of research.

Episode 19: ZK Summit, sharding, testnets and ASIC resistance

We welcome Jack back to the show to discuss what’s been going on in our world for the past month. We share a little review of our recent event – the Zero Knowledge Summit – and an update from the Taiwan Sharding Workshop. We also discuss the role of testnets and explore the purpose and practice of ASIC resistance.

Episode 15: Chatting about consensus algorithms with Robert Habermeier

Fredrik has a chat about consensus algorithms with Parity Technologies in-house consensus expert Robert Habermeier. We cover what a consensus algorithm is and how they work. We try to explain some common terms like safety and liveness, what a fork choice rule is and how real-world constraints like networking play a role in your algorithm design.

Episode 14: Diving deep into DFINITY

In this episode, we do a deep dive into the DFINITY protocol project and their recently released whitepaper. We speak with Robert Lauko, Research Associate working on the project, about their ongoing development and we explore some of the innovations DFINITY aims to incorporate into this new blockchain.

Episode 13: Bloom filters, PoA and what’s up with ERP?

The gang catches up on what’s been going on in the blockchain world for the past month, sharing some nuggets of learning around bloom filters, Proof of Authority, upcoming events, the Dfinity paper and some comments on what all the fuzz around this ERP is.

Episode 10: Blockchain, Open-Source & Security

In this episode, we will be talking with Liz Steininger, the CEO and MD of Least Authority, about decentralised communities, the challenges of blockchain open source technology and how we will likely see this community developing over the next few years.
