Under-16 Online Safety Debate

Zero-knowledge proofs have a reputation for being impenetrable. Adam Smolarek (Rustarians) has spent three years building production halo2 circuits and at Oxidize 2026, he'll show what that work actually looks like in Rust - typed columns, constraint checking with MockProver, and where Rust's strictness helps versus where it gets in the way.

“We protect your data” is a promise.
“We can’t see your data” is architecture.
Building open-source auth infrastructure where privacy is a cryptographic guarantee - not a policy document.

Por que os IK Starks podem mudar o Bitcoin

Quer saber por que os IK Starks podem mudar o futuro do Bitcoin? 🚀

• "Venho propagandeando aqui há anos" — e não é por acaso.
• IK Starks = solução poderosa para zero-node proofs.
• Ao contrário dos SNARKs, que dependem de um setup confiável (trusted setup), os IK Starks NÃO precisam disso.
• Resultado: mais segurança, descentralização e privacidade para a rede.

Bitcoin was never anonymous; it was only pseudonymous. Every transaction is public and traceable with enough data. Privacy tools tried to fix that, then developers were arrested (Tornado Cash, Samourai Wallet).

Zero-knowledge proofs already work. Zcash proves it. So, will 2026 finally bring real privacy to Bitcoin, or will surveillance remain the default?
