Added to OP.
It is tricky to get information on the #age encryption scheme because search engine returns indicate they think you are searching on schemes to validate 18+ content and others think you are into #crytpocurrency scams, which is not what you meant by #crypto.

Here is another link that goes straight to it:

"the mechanics of how age builds up a shared secret between U and V, without either of those parties having previously exchanged any secret information"

Which is fascinating, like a magic trick but real.

BTW thanks for the hit because I checked your TL and learned about #CyberMentoringMonday which I am now following and recommending.

“At some level, the fall of FTX is not a crypto story at all,” said Adam Levitin, a Georgetown University law professor and a principal at Gordian Crypto Advisors, a firm that provides advice regarding crypto bankruptcies. “People invested billions in an unregulated financial institution based in a Caribbean island. How could this end well?”

Crypto’s free-wheeling firms lured millions. FTX revealed the dangers.

Exchanges like FTX have been fundamental to the growth of cryptocurrencies. But while they act like banks and brokers, they don't face the same oversight.
