We’ll be launching something new from Aragon that addresses this for all lending protocols and any protocol that lists assets. Stay tuned! :) 🦅

Stand With Crypto and over 200 organizations sent a simple message to Senate leadership: it's time for the Clarity Act. The community is unified — large companies, startups, associations, and grassroots groups across the country are counting on their lawmakers to deliver rules of the road for crypto in America. The Clarity Act passed the Senate Banking Committee with bipartisan support. Now it needs to cross the finish line. Tell your Senators you want Clarity 👇

Almost completed finished reallocating my portfolio solely into tokens where token holders have onchain rights. otf.aragon.org

Managing protocol risk goes beyond code audits. It requires strong access control. Security councils or guardian functions with timelocks are baseline safeguards for minimizing counterparty risk. Add checks and balances with Aragon. ↓

More people should know about the Interfold. It's basically what I've been yelling at people to build with the MACI ideas ( ethresear.ch/t/minimal-anti-… ) for almost a decade, and now it exists, in a generalized form. The idea is: a privacy protocol optimized for things like voting (and other use cases eg. secret-ballot auctions). The mechanism generates a threshold encryption key, and people send in their votes onchain, using a ZKP to prove eligibility. An arbitrary computation on the votes gets run inside FHE, and then threshold-decrypted. From what I can tell (the docs are good docs.theinterfold.com/CRISP/… ), it gets pretty optimal security guarantees: * Voter anonymity can be made unconditional if eligibility is proven with ZK-SNARKs * Censorship resistance is guaranteed by ethereum (votes can be posted directly onchain, and there's a proof that all posted votes are taking into account) * The correctness of the outputted result can be ensured via ZK over FHE * Liveness and coercion resistance depend on M-of-N honesty; unavoidable given present-day technology The main limitation is that today "ZK over FHE" is only properly available for additive vote tallying, as it's too expensive for computations that involve multiplication or other more complicated manipulation at the moment. There's work in progress on slashing-based / optimistic computation for such situations. (And of course ideally in the long term we'd figure out obfuscation so you can get rid of the M-of-N committees😃)
