on Monday I did a meetup in Barcelona with some students of the Barcelona University in MADE makerspace a hub of opensource projects from software to crypto to syntethizers... :slight_smile:
The most remarkable thing is that it came the director of the Blockchain and Cryptograohy searcg group of the University of Barcelona and they are interested in doing a collabortion of research. Not to create Dapps directky but to do research on how to improve the Aeternity protocol. How should we proceed @erik.chain?
Also on January we will do a Sophia workshop inside the University.
here there are some pictures of the event, most of the asistants were of a high technical knowledge.
I think that It should be us who propose them a list of subjects of the Aeternity protocol that they could investigate the way to improve It.
Something like:
how to keep the Cukko Cycle algorithm ASIC resistant.
posible security attacks in State Channels.
how to implement privacy features for AE txs(?mimblewimble?)
mechanisms to make sure that Oracles don’t act maliciously.
Etc…
Any ideas?
@emin.chain@bruteforce.chain@philipp.chain Any suggestions on what specific areas of the æternity protocol this research team from the University of Barcelona could investigate?
