A
This
might
be
a
strange
idea
to
to
many,
but
we'll
see
so
as
Skyler
was
mentioning,
we
have
some
problems
in
terms
of
fees,
scalability
Etc.
The
idea
is:
there's
this
power.
We
can
call
upon
the
power
of
dang
sharding,
which
basically
massively
scales
the
data
that
we
have
access
to.
A
Within
ethereum
and
the
state's
availability
will
allow
l2s
and
whichever
other
platforms
that
would
like
to
build
on
top
of
us,
the
ethereum
chain
to
massively
grow
ethereum,
so
the
fees
will
be
lower
for
averages,
while
at
the
same
time
we
can
stop
State
load,
which
is
a
I
think
most
of
the
client
teams
will
attest
to
a
serious
issue.
A
The
idea
is
that
we
have
these
massive
Blobs
of
data
where
the
l2s
and
whoever
else
can
basically
just
dump
crazy
amounts
of
it,
like
orders
of
magnitude
more
than
is
currently
possible,
and
then
we
have
this,
this
Black
Blocks
Gadget,
that's
a
cryptography
Gadget
like
Daniel
was
talking
about
earlier.
A
These
black
boxes
cause
a
kcg
commitment
which
allows
us
to
take
this
data
and
only
put
a
tiny
reference
to
it
on
chain,
but
we
can
also
prove
wonderful
things
about
this
data
using
using
this
tool,
then
what
we
do
is
we
take
this,
the
the
the
data
and
once
the
chain
has
progressed
a
little
bit,
we
can
throw
it
away
and
what
we've
been
guaranteed
is
not
that
the
chain
stores
the
data
forever,
because
we
can't
we
can't
keep
doing
that.
A
But
what
we
can
guarantee
is
that
everyone
had
access
to
the
data.
So
if
you
cared
about
that
data,
you
could
have
downloaded
it,
and
you
can
now
be
rest
assured
that
your
your
data
is
there
and
available,
and
this
is
the
power
of
dank
charting
and
is
how
ethereum
will
achieve
the
the
ability
to
scale
to
hopefully
the
entire
world's
needs.
A
So
what
exactly
is
inside
this
box?
It
is
a
bunch
of
moon,
math,
some
polynomials
and,
most
importantly,
for
what
we
heard
for
today
is
a
a
secret.
It's
a
secret
that
I
can't
know
that
you
can't
know
the
client
teams
can't
know
no
one
in
the
world
can
know,
and
it
is
vital
that
we
have
the
secret
in
order
to
enable
the
powers
of
dank
sharding
but
it'll.
Also,
the
paths
of
dank
charting
are
completely
decimated
if
the
secret
is
compromised.
A
So
the
idea
is
we're
going
to
summon
the
secret
from
out
of
The
Ether
the
there's
a
ceremony
that
I
everyone
else
sitting
here
at
the
entire
theorem
community,
and
hopefully
members
from
around
the
world
will
participate
in
in
order
to
produce
the
secret
in
a
shared
manner
and
once
we
all
have
contributed
and
attested
to
it.
The
idea
is
that
as
soon
as
well
sorry,
as
long
as
one
of
us
is
honest,
one
of
us
doesn't
try,
go
in
the
code,
change
the
code
and
throw
away.
Sorry,
sorry,
keep
sorry.
A
One
person
make
sure
to
throw
away
the
secret
that
the
computer
knew
for
but
a
moment.
Then
we
will
be
good
and
this
again
ties
into
a
bit
of
what
Danny
was
saying
about
resiliency.
There
are
multiple
implementations
of
this
that
are
needed.
A
We
need,
as
many
people
running
it
as
possible
institutions,
homesteakers
whomever,
because
they
could
be
that
final
burning
candle
that
keeps
ethereum
secure,
thus
the
the
idea
being
not
that
you
trust
one
person
to
be
honest,
but
that
you're
pretty
sure
that,
amongst
the
thousands
of
people
that
have
participated,
there's
at
least
one
of
us
who
have
done
the
right
thing
or
in
this
case
not
the
wrong
thing
in
order
to
to
summon
the
secret.
A
The
idea
is
we'll
have
many
interfaces,
but
the
primary
one
will
be
browser
accessible.
The
goal
is
to
have
some
somewhere
on
the
order
of
5000.
A
Contributions
will
take
five
minutes
of
your
time,
so
hopefully
a
trivial
thing
to
do
to
help
improve
the
security
of
the
network
and
be
sure
yourself,
because
if
you
participated,
you
knew
that
you
didn't
do
any
of
the
the
weird
things
to
try
compromise
the
security
and
the
files
very
small
relative
to
some
of
these
other
ceremonies
we've
seen
before
my
idea
was
to
do
a
demo
to
show
you
quite
how
simple
it
is
that
it's
gonna
be
fun.
Interactive
people
are
going
to
get
on
stage,
there's
going
to
be
a
blast.
A
A
It's
as
normal
you'll
sign
in
with
your
ethereum
account
you'll
wiggle
your
mouse
around
a
bit.
It's
collecting
all
sorts
of
data.
You
can
draw
pretty
pictures,
write
names
of
lost
lovers,
Etc
with
your
mouse.
A
You
can
type
some
secret
that
hopefully
means
something
to
you,
but
ideally
you're
going
to
forget,
and
all
of
this
will
be
combined
with
some
additional
secure,
some
additional
Randomness
from
your
computer
with
the
idea
being
that
you
don't
know
it,
and
if
even
one
of
these
little
steps
are
compromised,
then
that's
that's
not
super
important.
A
The
then
there's
this
this
contribution
phase
where
your
computer
starts
getting
all
the
the
data,
there's
a
one
one
server
which
will
send
you
this
information,
where
you
are
now
the
person
who's
been
entrusted
with
the
powers
of
Tau.
For
a
moment,
it's
your
time
to
shine.
You'll,
take
these
secrets
that
or
your
computer
will
take
these
secrets
that
you've
just
generated
you'll
mix
it
in
with
everyone
else.
A
Your
ancestors
in
the
ceremony
who've
come
before,
and
then
you
you
will
return
the
powers
to
the
next,
the
next
user,
and
this
is
how
we're
gonna
have
the
powers
of
dangshad
and
dangshotting
drawnia.
A
This
very
complicated
chart
of
what's
Happening-
all
that's
that's
needed
to
know-
is
for
dunk
charting
in
eip4844
I,
don't
know
if
those
mean
anything
to
you,
but
this
is
all
part
of
the
the
search
phase
of
our
scaling
that
in
about
a
month
or
so
we'll
be
going
live
with
this.
This
main
ceremony,
and
hopefully
all
of
you
in
this
room,
will
join
me
in
participating
all
the
people
listening.
A
That
would
that'd
really
be
fantastic.
Let's
scale
to
these.
These
thousands
of
participants
there'll
be
grants.
I
want
to
encourage
people
to
write
their
own
implementations.
You
might
be
scared
of
cryptography
or
think
that
this
is
not
a
not
something
you've
practiced
or
whatever,
but
you
can't
really
go
wrong.
Writing
your
own
implementation.
There's
nowhere
to
break
it.
It
will
just
tell
you
sorry.
You
were
wrong
if
you
made
a
mistake,
so
please,
if
you
want
to
try
dabble
in
some
cryptography,
this
is
a
great
time
to
try.
A
Otherwise,
if
you've
got
some
crazy
ideas
on
how
to
create
a
secret,
you
want
to
do
Vision
trips
in
the
desert
or
something
flying
airplanes.
You're
gonna
like
destroy
your
computer.
Afterwards,
whatever
you,
you
think,
is
a
meaningful
way
of
creating
this,
the
secret
or
destroying
making
sure
proving
to
the
world
that
you've
destroyed
it
afterwards
in
a
fun
interesting,
like
narratively,
relevant
way.
A
That
would
there'll
be
grants
that
you
can.
You
can
join
for
doing
this
so
sign
up
on
this
thing
to
be
notified.
I'm
sure
everyone
will
be
seeing
lots
of
this
happening
on
all
the
twitters
there'll
be
a
pope
which
I
know
means
a
lot
to
a
lot
of
people
shout
out
Patricia
on
the
front
row
here
and
yeah.
A
So
look
look
forward
to
this
I
encourage
all
of
you
to
to
to
be
ready
to
contribute
and,
if
you'd
like
to
hear
more
I
have
another
talk
coming
up
later
in
the
week
to
dive
into
the
details,
explain
really
the
the
nitty-gritty
of
the
math
and
why
this
is
a
secure
thing
and
why
it's
a
necessary
thing
in
order
for
ethereum
to
achieve
our
goals.
Thank
you.
