A focused research effort on crypto-currencies and blockchain technologies

Brings together researchers and practioners working in the space of technical innovations and  the blockchain ecosystem

The Stanford Center for Blockchain Research

<h3><strong>About The Event</strong></h3><p>The conference focuses on technical innovations in the blockchain ecosystem, and brings together researchers and practioners working in the space. We are interested in the application of cryptography, decentralized protocols, formal methods, and empirical analysis, to improving the security and scalability of blockchain deployments. We aim to foster collaboration among practitioners and researchers working on blockchain protocol development, cryptography, distributed systems, secure computing, crypto-economics, and economic risk analysis.</p><p>The conference is co-organized by the <strong>Stanford Center for Blockchain Research (CBR),&nbsp;&nbsp;IC3,&nbsp;&nbsp;and&nbsp;&nbsp;Berkeley RDI</strong>.</p><h3>Affiliated workshops</h3><p>A number of workshop will take place before and after the main conference. Most workshops will take place at Stanford or in close by Palo Alto.</p><ul><li>Blockchain Application Stanford Summit (BASS) - Saturday, Sunday, August 26-27, 2023</li><li>Science and Engineering of Consensus - Sunday, August 27, 2023</li><li>Future of Decentralization, AI, and Computing Summit, Aug 27, 2023, at UC Berkeley</li><li>MEV Workshop - Thursday, Aug. 31st</li><li>DAO Workshop - Thursday, Aug. 31st</li><li>StarkNet Summit - Thursday, Aug. 31st</li><li>A workshop on P2P: DHTs, discovery, and gossip - Thursday, Aug. 31st</li><li>Science of Decentralized Financial Stability - Friday, Sep. 1st</li></ul><h3>Organizing Committee &amp; Speakers</h3><p><strong>Program Chairs:</strong></p><ul><li>Dan Boneh, Stanford University, CBR</li><li>Ari Juels, Cornell Tech, IC3</li><li>Dawn Song, U.C.Berkeley, RDI</li></ul><p><strong>Program Committee:</strong></p><ul><li>Ittai Abraham, VMware Research</li><li>Zeta Avarikioti, TU Wien, Austria</li><li>Joe Bonneau, NYU and a16z Crypto Research</li><li>Konstantinos Chalkias, Mysten Labs</li><li>Jeremy Clark, Concordia University</li><li>Justin Drake, Ethereum Foundation</li><li>Ittay Eyal, Technion</li><li>Giulia Fanti, CMU</li><li>Dankrad Feist, Ethereum Foundation</li><li>Ben Fisch, Yale</li><li>Christina Garman, Purdue University</li><li>Arthur Gervais, UCL</li><li>Andrew Lewis-Pye, London School of Economics</li><li>Dahlia Malkhi, Chainlink</li><li>Deepak Maram, Mysten Labs</li><li>Patrick McCorry, Infura</li><li>Sarah Meiklejohn, University College London / Google</li><li>Kartik Nayak, Duke University</li><li>Joachim Neu, Stanford University</li><li>Valeria Nikolaenko, a16z crypto research</li><li>Charalampos Papamanthou, Yale</li><li>Joseph Poon, Warp Engine</li><li>Ling Ren, UIUC</li><li>Dan Robinson, Paradigm</li><li>Tim Roughgarden, Columbia University and a16z crypto research</li><li>Will Scott, Protocol Labs</li><li>Ertem Nusret Tas, Stanford University</li><li>Chrysoula Stathakopoulou, Chainlink labs</li><li>Alin Tomescu, Aptos</li><li>Mahdi Zamani, Visa Research</li><li>Fan Zhang, Yale</li><li>Liyi Zhou, Imperial College London</li></ul>
