Ergo: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System for Programmable Money

If you’re building something privacy focused on Ergo (mixers, private DeFi, credentials, etc.), curve trees are the kind of primitive that unlocks bigger anonymity sets without blowing up transaction sizes or verification costs. Great work definitely pioneering for the platform.

A Curve Tree is an algebraic accumulator that leverages the reciprocal-order relationship between two elliptic curves (secp256k1 and secq256k1) to build compact membership proofs. This repository implements on-chain verification of these proofs in ErgoScript, enabling privacy-preserving applications like: AUTCT (Anonymous Usage Tokens from Curve Trees) Privacy pools with membership/exclusion proofs Anonymous voting without identity disclosure Credential verification without revealing which credential

USE Analytics Track the health and performance of the USE stablecoin protocol

Open source MIT licensed. Includes whitepaper , tests, and testnet spend scripts. Interesting for Ergo builders exploring advanced privacy. Curve Trees on Ergo. Privacy preserving set membership verification via eUTXO accumulator. First on chain Curve Tree impl on any eUTXO chain. Worth a look.

TrufflΣ is a fast, self-custodial mobile trading app and wallet for the Ergo blockchain. It's built for traders who want to act quickly without giving up control — you stay on-chain, you hold your keys, and every swap lands directly in a DEX pool with no middlemen. It supports traditional wallet transctions and connecting to supported dapps via ErgoPay. It supports Spectrum/ErgoDEX liquidity pools for token swaps, and the USE, SigUSD/SigRSV and DexyGold stablecoin protocols for minting and redeeming. Transactions can be signed securely via ErgoPay (recommended), or you can import a mnemonic and sign directly in the app. Warning BETA SOFTWARE: TrufflΣ is currently in beta. Always verify all transaction details and output amounts before confirming. Use at your own risk! As an Open Source project, the community is invited to audit the code for vulnerabilities. Transparency is key to building a secure tool for everyone. github.com/FlyingPig5/tru…

Weekly Update on Matrix (sub-blocks): * fixed more todos , mostly in p2p layer, like DoS prevention, ever growing caches etc * more tests done * a non-mining peer now run (locally) in the public testnet. Its version set to 6.5.0 * updated 213 devnet seed node with a fresh build, will provide it after testing a bit

For expanding Lithos multi chain we need something with good trust assumptions that can provide block header information on Ergo. So if the chain is not able to provide NiPoPoWs then potentially have to have rosen watchers provide info about the last N blocks. It's a rough idea still, but interesting to think about long term.

Lithos Updates: - More LP offchain code work - Finishing up API calls for LP - Did some emission testing before launching on testnet Also: - Wrapping up Appkit 6.0 for Kushti I think the next big update for Lithos will be out within 2 weeks. Assuming testing goes well, I think it will be safe to say Lithos is essentially ready for mainnet. Will be interesting to see how lithos goes as block rewards are hitting a stabilization period.

Bitcoin just had a 2-block reorg. Foundry wound up mining 7 blocks in a row and rewrote two of AntPool/ViaBTC's blocks out of history. At blocks 941881–941882, Foundry and AntPool/ViaBTC were racing on competing chains simultaneously. Foundry won and their chain became the best chain. AntPool and ViaBTC's two blocks became stale. They are now orphaned, never to be part of the permanent ledger. You can verify it yourself on fork.observer Quick explainer on what a reorg actually is: Bitcoin's rule is simple: the chain with the most cumulative work wins. Sometimes two miners find a valid block at nearly the same time. The network splits briefly, with some nodes following one chain and others following another. The tie gets broken when someone mines the next block on top of one of them and the longer chain wins. The losing blocks become "stale" and are discarded entirely. Those miners get nothing. A 2-block reorg means this race extended across two consecutive blocks before resolving. This is rare but not unheard of. H/t @0xB10C

These forums, papers, and lectures have been inspirational, opening new ideas for human coordination. It is a big honor to participate.

RAMICS defines the scope of this field of research in a broad manner. Apart from present-day community and complementary currencies it encompasses the study of historic currencies, monetary plurality and other monetary innovations such as cryptographic currencies. The association focuses in particular on socio-economic innovations on the monetary system which contribute to economic diversity, social cohesion, democratic participation and environmental sustainability. RAMICS aims at promoting international and interdisciplinary scientific exchange and further improve the quality of this work.

Raffle is a distribution engine. Fully automated, verifiably honest, and incredibly flexible. When directed towards a cause, a community initiative, for profit or non profit ventures or just influencer engagement this is a fairer more powerful tool than memecoins or other tools.

@Armeanio Every major L1 coin Rosen supports is already represented as a bridged rune on Bitcoin. So it will launch with ETH, ADA, DOGE and BNB indirect support.

Flexible donations: users can donate directly with Bitcoin and Runes (more chains later), no need to bridge first. Flexible winners: from 1 to thousands of winners with custom winning share and prizes
