- Title: A Proposal for a Lean and Functional Delivery versus Payment across two Blockchains
- Authors: Christian P. Fries, Peter Kohl-Landgraf,
- Abstract summary: A payment chain operator hosts a stateless decryption service that allows decrypting messages with his secret key.
A "Payment Contract" is deployed on the payment chain that implements a function transferAndDecrypt(uint id, address from, address to, string keyEncryptedSuccess, string keyEncryptedFail)
The respective key can then trigger an associated transaction, e.g. claiming delivery by the buyer or re-claiming the locked asset by the seller.

- Abstract: We propose a lean and functional transaction scheme to establish a secure delivery-versus-payment across two blockchains, where a) no intermediary is required and b) the operator of the payment chain/payment system has a small overhead and does not need to store state. The main idea comes with two requirements: First, the payment chain operator hosts a stateless decryption service that allows decrypting messages with his secret key. Second, a "Payment Contract" is deployed on the payment chain that implements a function transferAndDecrypt(uint id, address from, address to, string keyEncryptedSuccess, string keyEncryptedFail) that processes the (trigger-based) payment and emits the decrypted key depending on the success or failure of the transaction. The respective key can then trigger an associated transaction, e.g. claiming delivery by the buyer or re-claiming the locked asset by the seller.

- The Latency Price of Threshold Cryptosystem in Blockchains [52.359230560289745]
We study the interplay between threshold cryptography and a class of blockchains that use Byzantine-fault tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols.
Existing approaches for threshold cryptosystems introduce a latency overhead of at least one message delay for running the threshold cryptographic protocol.
We propose a mechanism to eliminate this overhead for blockchain-native threshold cryptosystems with tight thresholds.

Crypters are pieces of software whose main goal is to transform a target binary so it can avoid detection from Anti Viruses (AVs) applications.
The crypter-as-a-service model has gained popularity, in response to the increased sophistication of detection mechanisms.
This paper provides the first study on an online underground market dedicated to crypter-as-a-service.

We introduce the Sequencer Level Security (SLS) protocol, an enhancement to sequencing protocols of rollups.
We describe the mechanics of the protocol for both the transactions submitted to the rollup mempool, as well as transactions originating from Layer one.
We implement a prototype of the SLS protocol, Zircuit, which is built on top of Geth and the OP stack.

We consider schemes where secret keys are represented as quantum states with the guarantee that, once the secret key is successfully revoked from a user, they no longer have the ability to perform the same functionality as before.
