I'm happy to finally announce my own work, Serai!
Announcing Serai: A new decentralized exchange for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Monero. reddit.com/r/Monero/comme… Join us on Discord to participate in building the most usable decentralized and secure exchange! discord.com/invite/mpEUtJR…
Does anyone use/want to use/have use-cases for function-hiding IPFE? If solely "want to", what's stopping you?
I'm going to throw my hat into all this with the following: I look forward to the day both Monero and Zcash are amazing options for private cryptocurrency. While I disagree with some of the promotion here, I'd rather the discussion shift more to mutual respect.
I’m not going to compare Zcash to Monero. For me, it's not an interesting exercise. The following is a simple response to @sethforprivacy's recent post. I will say that electronic cash maxis should be excited about what has been happening in Zcash. If I were a Monero maxi, I’d…
MAGIC Grants contracted @trailofbits to audit the Ethereum smart contract that is expected to be used by Serai. Serai is a forthcoming decentralized exchange that will initially be compatible with the Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Monero blockchains. More info: magicgrants.org/2025/06/06/Ser…
Serai had its Ethereum contracts and associated Rust libraries audited by @trailofbits! Trail of Bits found no high, medium, nor low severity findings, and only two informational. For the criticality of this, and complexity in cross-chain messaging, we're extremely happy.
There's no practical reason to adopt Zcash's technology instead, unless we're shuttering development of a legitimate alternative and centralizing techniques used to promote privacy. That said, I respect Orchard and would love to see cross-ecosystem collaborations in the future.
We're excited to announce the FCMP++ Optimization Competition to optimize the helioselene and ec-divisors libraries used in Monero's upcoming Full-Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP++) upgrade, with prizes of 100 XMR (helioselene) and 250 XMR (ec-divisors)!
The Monero multisig protocol created by Serai DEX, FROSTLASS, was proven secure by Cypher Stack! Serai is an innovative DEX that will offer a liquidity-pool-based trading experience for Bitcoin, Ethereum, DAI, and Monero!
Our Monero multisig protocol was proven secure! FROSTLASS is a FROST-inspired protocol applying its techniques to Monero's CLSAG. It achieves constant per-participant upload, linear computation, and identifiable aborts, enabling large-scale decentralized threshold multisigs.
I'm proud to have done this work! The implementation was done a couple years ago at the start of Serai and it's finally proven secure! Happy it's moving forward.

I was gifted Twitter Premium. While it's a nice thought (someone wanted to make my life a little nicer?), I absolutely don't want to pay money for this site. Now someone else has paid money on my behalf, in my name :/// Debating finally moving off.
Just noticed I lost control of a domain for an old/dead project, and with it, access to the associated accounts. That's unfortunate. Doesn't really affect me except for if/when someone starts phishing with it. Shouldn't be relevant/taken seriously though?
