Come join us at the next edition of the BitDevs Athens Socratic Seminar focused on the topic of Scriptless Scripts.
This day’s topic will be:
1) Scriptless Scripts: an approach to designing cryptographic protocol on top of Bitcoin which avoids execution of explicit smart contracts.
This approach is primarily facilitated through adaptor signatures, the key building block of scriptless protocols. A prominent application is Mimblewimble, a blockchain design that supports only scriptless scripts, and derives its privacy and scaling properties from this.
Reading material:
- Simple explanation
- One-time verifiably encrypted signatures (paper)
- How adaptor signatures work in different edgecases common to modern Bitcoin contract design
- Introduction to scriptless scripts
- https://bitcoinops.org/en/topics/adaptor-signatures
2) Review of technical Bitcoin news. In every meetup we go through technical Bitcoin news.
The event will be held in English and is free.
