First you need to understand the implications beyond the technical meaning. Then: simplify, simplify, simplify (without over-simplification)! Demonstrate by well chosen examples! Engage in a careful exchange and be open to adding variations! ....no one scheme which always works!

Very refreshing to hear about the latest in practical and deployed MPC with ⁦Moti Yung⁩ ⁦Yehuda Lindell⁩ ⁦kennyog⁩ ⁦Nigel Smart⁩ Daniele Cozzo and Damiano Abram during the applied MPC session at ⁦RSAConference⁩!

Thanks to my esteemed colleagues, for what I learned on the panel!

Cryptographers are always on a boat, the failure of an assumption is the tip of the iceberg to hit the boat!

"Crypto means Cryptography, not Cryptocurrency!" is a fake controversy! Without cryptography there would have never been cryptocurrency! Scientifically, blockchains are a branch! Commercially/socially there may be issues, but: "don't throw the baby with the bath water!")

First day of Real World Crypto 2023 done. Amazing conference. I love this crowd. Warm and welcoming to everyone. Great talks. Chilled atmosphere. Zero academic point scoring (except maybe for some anti-isogeny jokes, but lets face it.... isogenies deserve it).

The most beloved collaborator :) and mentor Moti Yung is elected to American Academy of Arts & Sciences, congratulations Moti! So well-deserved.

I fully agree with this, and with what Moxie wrote. Yes, people doing really stupid unprofessional things should be called out. But that’s very different from subtle attacks on systems that are built seriously with great effort to be secure. We should clearly distinguish these.
