Syed Hosseini

Syed is a researcher and a programmer at Web3 Foundation working on efficient digital signatures and zero-knowledge proofs. As a mathematician studying for his PhD, he focused on curve based cryptography, specifically geometric structures that offer richer mathematical properties than elliptic curves. He has studied and designed provably secure messaging protocols. He has been involved in the development of various network protocols and distributed and cooperative network solutions.

No SPoFs! No Admin! Open source cryptography for making big brothers redundant.
Syed Hosseini

We explore the power of cryptography and decentralization in various situations to remove the wanted or unwanted presence of the centralized authority. We explore cryptographic primitives including encryption, digital signatures, verifiable random functions, distributed key generation, distributed verifiable random functions, ringVRFs and ring signatures, zero knowldege proofs, and more to help empowering systems without a central trusted authority.
