What are zero-knowledge proofs? Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) are an innovative cryptographic method that enables a party (the prover) to validate a claim to another (the verifier) without disclosing ...

She completed her PhD at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2012 under the mentorship of Silvio Micali, a Turing award laureate. “I simply wanted to conduct the best research.

My mission became to upgrade blockchain's computational power from something like that of a calculator to that of a ...

Shafi Goldwasser and Silvio Micali, both at the University of California, Berkeley, had been wondering whether it was possible to prevent cheating in an online poker game. That would require somehow ...

With Silvio Micali and Oded Goldreich, Wigderson extended Micali's earlier work on interactive proofs to NP problems, concluding that the solution to every such problem can also be proved with a ...

Algorand is the brainchild of MIT professor Silvio Micali, a computer engineering wizard who specializes in cryptography and distributed computing.

“Silvio Micali’s Algorand—who’s a Turing Award winner at MIT that I work with—Silvio’s got a great technology that has performance,” he said, referencing the founder of Algorand.

The concept of ZKPs was first introduced in a 1985 paper titled "The knowledge complexity of interactive proof systems" by Shafi Goldwasser, Silvio Micali and Charles Rackoff.

Algorand founder Silvio Micali and Algorand Foundation CEO Staci Warden were featured speakers representing Algorand, alongside over 130 industry leaders, including the likes of Napster CEO Jon ...

Algorand Algorand, up 12% over the past 30 days, is a proof-of-stake Layer 1 blockchain founded by award-winning MIT professor Silvio Micali.

Who Is Behind Algorand? The Algorand blockchain was founded in 2017 by Silvio Micali, a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at MIT.

FlexID’s idea has won it funding from Algorand, a blockchain protocol created by Turing Award-winning cryptographer Silvio Micali. The two parties didn’t disclose the size of the investment.
