In this whitepaper, we articulate a vision for the evolution of Chainlink beyond its initial
conception in the original Chainlink whitepaper. We foresee an increasingly expansive role …

We present CanDID, a platform for practical, user-friendly realization of decentralized
identity, the idea of empowering end users with management of their own credentials. While …

Asynchronous common subset (ACS) is a powerful paradigm enabling applications such as
Byzantine fault-tolerance (BFT) and multi-party computation (MPC). The most efficient ACS …

In this paper, we introduce the problem of Asynchronous Data Dissemination (ADD).
Intuitively, an ADD protocol disseminates a message to all honest nodes in an …

The classic asynchronous Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) framework of Ben-Or, Kemler, and
Rabin (BKR) and its descendants rely on reliable broadcast (RBC) and asynchronous binary …

Distributed Key Generation (DKG) is a technique to bootstrap threshold cryptosystems
without a trusted party. DKG is an essential building block to many decentralized protocols …

Secret sharing is an essential tool for many distributed applications, including distributed key
generation and multiparty computation. For many practical applications, we would like to …

Society appears to be on the verge of recognizing the need for control over sensitive data in
modern web applications. Recently, many systems claim to give control to individuals …

This paper studies the role of multiparty shuffling protocols in enabling more efficient
metadata-hiding communication. We show that the process of shuffling messages can be …

Front-running is the malicious, and often illegal, act of both manipulating the order of
pending trades and injecting additional trades to make a profit at the cost of other users. In …
