New work out! We (royally) show that Fiat-Shamir transformation is insecure for a class of proof systems for *generated* relations (including variants of commonly deployed protocols for R1CS). A thread to explain where this applies

Did you ever ponder whether "Guruswami–Sudan" could fit into a song? No?! Neither did I, and yet here we are!
You want to win a million dollar in the proximity prize? You'll have to first listen to this song we made
Hash-based SNARKs are fast, PQ secure, and transparent. But they have a major flaw: they historically lack ZK properties without massive overhead. Enter ZO0k: a true minimal overhead ZK IOP framework presented by the local Italian star @GiacomoFenzi at ZK Summit. 🧵👇

And dulcis in fundo, @kleptographic on Interactive Oracle Reductions!
And for our next trick... Noor Athamnah on Linear Prover IOPs in Log Star Rounds!
We are back on! Alessandro Chiesa on Close Enough: Proximity Tests from Linear codes. Livestream:
And now @danboneh on the proximity prize: what it is and what is currently known! Different stream:
We are live with IOPFest! Currently @zkproofs on the Quest for Optimal IOPs! Join the live stream
Really fun talk, thank you for having me, get ready for part 2 at ZKProof!
Our first speaker of the day at zkSummit14 was @GiacomoFenzi sharing with us ZOOK: Zero-Knowledge IOPPs for Constrained Interleaved Codes
Accepted to CRYPTO26! 🎉🎉🎉 See you in sunny Santa Barbara 🇺🇸
We present Tensorswitch🧮: a new nearly optimal hash-based polynomial commitment scheme from tensor codes! Joint work with @benediktbuenz, @ronrothblum and @kleptographic! 📚: 2025/2065

We have an update on the proximity prize: a 1m$ initiative to prove or disprove coding theoretic conjectures, with applications to shorter quantum-secure proof systems. We have released the first draft: cc @GalArnon42 and @danboneh
