New changes afoot in the world if cryptography.

EdDSA soon will be a FIPS standard in FIPS 186-5 and DSA will be used for verification only.

Time to review your crypto choices maybe, no not the coin ones!

News from NIST that it's time to bid SHA-1 farewell. 7 years until it affects FIPS though so it may be a long goodbye.
Reminder to those still on MD5 to really let that go now too! 😂

I think you *should* be pro-crypto! It's one of the best ways to protect data and there are some great algorithms out there. Being a software engineer it's important to protect your, and your client's data. 😉

I hope every cryptocurrency company goes to zero value. I hope every cryptocurrency goes to zero value. Completely wiped out. If you're invested in one, I don't wish you harm, I wish you to exit your position.

Sorry, but what you are referring to as "crypto" is actually "currencies" or "cyber-currencies" or "cyber-ponzi" if you will

The strange story of “Extended Random”

blog.cryptographyengineering.c

Or how the NSA -surprise!- covertly weakened ...

Fascinatingly, the person who introduced this is now "Director, AWS applied crypto" at !

Surprise, surprise!

@jz I totally agree and been saying this for a while now, lol. I wish they'd stop calling cryptocurrency as "crypto"! Someone made some pins for Defcon one year saying , but I did not go so didn't get one.

Hack Sémantique/Mental #423

Les spéculateurs zélés des crypto-monnaies appelent leurs actifs/obsessions "crypto".

C'est trompeur, car "" signifie généralement "", une science utile ! Cela porte à confusion, en associant la cryptographie au jeu spéculatif de quelques privilégiés.

Pour équilibrer cela, j'ai décidé de ne qualifier les "crypto-monnaies" que de "monnaies", afin de souligner leur nature monétaire/financière.

Les mots sont importants.

Language/Mental Hack #423

Zealot speculators of crypto-currencies like to call their assets/obsessions "crypto".

It is misleading, as "" usually means "", a useful science! It therefore brings confusion, associating cryptography with the speculative gambling of a few privileged people.

I decided that to balance that, i would only refer to "crypto-currencies" as "currencies", in order to emphasize their monetary/financial nature.

Words matter.
