Péter Szilágyi on LLMs taking over hardware security at Devcon 8 Lotus 1
LIVE from Devcon 8: @peter_szilagyi says: "OpenAI will flat out refuse. LLMs are super good at looking at stuff and they are restricted a lot. However, luckily we have a very nice Chinese model called Kimi, which is more than happy to talk to us about exploring things." @EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/3p7tVh2y2g

Nicolas Bacca (@btchip) on making implants harmless in the Ethereum Universal Signer — Lotus 1, Devcon 8 day 4.
LIVE from Devcon 8:@btchip says: "the right way to deal with implants is to make them harmless. I think we win if the attacker needs both an implant and malware to be able to do something bad." On building the Ethereum Universal Signer. @EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/3amT8S1zGD

Steffen Kux: wallets as trust boundary — data providers, not trust providers
LIVE from Devcon 8:@steffenkux says: "Data providers, not trust providers." He can send the data over unprotected Bluetooth because the device, or the software, can verify at the end. Verifying Ethereum at the edge. @EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/pbTpfW1EcW

Jork Leonhardt: don't trust, verify — device attestation without trusting the manufacturer
LIVE from Devcon 8: @jorkleonhardt says: "don't trust, verify." First the truth has to live on chain or in some kind of public state, then the consumer verifies. No single supplier to trust. @EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/naVYzOFTry

Artem Brazhnikov: four companies control 160 roots of trust — the internet's centralization.
LIVE from Devcon 8:@art_tem_ says: "we have essentially four big companies that control 160 root of trust. And everything on the internet flows from this. This is the centralization we have right now in the world." Trusted is not the same as trustworthy.@EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/STt7mtMUD2

Chris Hobcroft: zero ways to fetch Ethereum node binaries via community tooling without Docker, Google, or Microsoft.
LIVE from Devcon 8: @chrishobcroft says: "the metric is zero... ways you can use community-governed tooling to fetch binaries for Ethereum nodes from anyone other than Docker, Google, and Microsoft. So big fat zero." Why run-your-own-node still depends on Big Tech. @EFDevcon pic.twitter.com/NjFDO3RSLD
