Building a more technical referance model around emerging cryptosystem technology.

State of The Industry

Technologies are fragile early in their evolutionary lifecycle and unfortunately this Industry is full of content that underminds peoples confidence in it or is far too complex to understand. Crypto needs more groups of people exploring and documenting its potential in a inviting way.

🏆 The goal

To share knowledge and knowhow with the Industry.

Create a resource that sheads light on the impact of crypto-technologies.

A model around cryptosystems that aids in the comprehension and comparison of quality and performance.
