Do federated #blockchain systems really meet the expectations of stakeholders in business and society? The #article of @m4rfl @JWI_TruDi provides an introduction to the ideas behind such systems and discusses them for future blockchain systems 👇 weizenbaum-institut.de/news/…
I wrote a less technical paper for a change, about why the consensus model behind @StellarOrg and @mobilecoin is really cool. And it just got released: weizenbaum-institut.de/media… 🎉

Did you ever wonder how "decentralized" and robust the @MobileCoin network is? We built a crawler to find out. Read about our results here 👉 arxiv.org/abs/2111.12364 👈 or explore our data at trudi.weizenbaum-institut.de…

"Collaborative Deanonymization" by @m4rfl and friends from Uni Innsbruck investigates how the tension between anonymity and accountability in cryptocurrencies can be resolved in a peer-to-peer manner (presentation: youtu.be/jHIyNtC0LK8, preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2005.03535).

For young scholars, life in academia holds challenges and can feel lonely; I certainly experienced this. Am super excited to announce our new talkshow @10plus1questio1 with @SRanchordas in which we look into some of the perhaps invisible sides of academia. Follow & stay tuned!

We're missing our group lead @m4rfl! Work morale has dropped since he left to give a cryptocurrency lecture at ISSEM 2019 @UdeLaHabana, Cuba.
Enjoy your time with cryptos and caipirinha!
