Today we announce: AADP WE Open Challenges. Recently we proposed a new witness encryption scheme based on Arithmetic Affine Determinant Programs which we intend to use in Bitcoin PIPEs v2, unlocking a wide range of applications and eliminating the need for trusted parties. Now we invite anyone to break small instances of our new scheme or to discover structural properties that were unknown before. Details here: allocinit.notion.site/challenges Special thanks to @zeroknowledgefm @zkproof @IACReurocrypt for organizing the conference week in Rome that we're announcing these at in person.

If you’re in Rome for @IACReurocrypt, come learn about Bitcoin PIPEs v2 and AADP Witness Encryption this Saturday, May 9! Head of Cryptography Research, Handan Kilinc Alper (@HandanKAlper) from our team will present PIPEs v2 at CTB ’26 this Saturday. 4:50 pm | CTB 2026 (ctb-workshop.org) → Sapienza University of Rome | Aula II (Classroom II). Enter via Scienze Statistiche Entrance of building CU002. University map: eurocrypt.iacr.org/2026/files/aff… Come learn and ask questions. See you there!

I am excited to share our new paper: Bitcoin PIPEs v2 eprint.iacr.org/2026/186.pdf Bitcoin only enforces signature validity. So instead of changing Script, we control whether a signature can be produced at all. No consensus changes. Pure cryptography. @alloc_init_

Excited to share my colleagues' recent work 🚀 BOIL’s novel proof batching unlocks big gains for zk-Rollups in L2! It enables efficient proof aggregation, reduces recursive overhead, and lowers L1 verification costs! #eprint #zkrollup #Layer2 #snark
=nil; Foundation@nil_foundation

We’re proud to introduce a new hash-based accumulator BOIL - a significant step toward more efficient and scalable zkEVMs. Instead of direct verification, BOIL aggregates proofs via recursion and is designed to minimize prover's recursive overhead. Paper + video links below ↓

Over 23 million people in Turkey and Syria are affected by the earthquake, out of a combined total population of 100 million. 1 in 5 are affected, possibly dead or homeless. It is a terrible catastrophe and we must be prepared to help Turkey rebuild over the next years.
