    The real currency is not money. It's energy and data - the two scarce resources whose fusion creates intelligence. We believe that this dramatic shift in the production of knowledge compels us to rethink the fundamental properties, purpose, and creation process of money.

    Proof-of-Useful-Work proposes that the same GPU computation used for AI workloads can also secure a blockchain network. But that immediately triggers an economic objection - if miners are already getting paid for running AI jobs, does the security of the network collapse?

    Congrats to our partners @togethercompute on their $800M Series C fundraising round. Few teams have done more to make open models fast, accessible, and production-ready. We’re excited to keep working with @vipulved and the team on the next frontier of inference: lower costs,

    Pearl’s math breakthrough is that Proof-of-Work can now run on top of arbitrary matrix multiplication AxB, with vanishing o(1) overhead. The key difference: the miner choose (A,B). This “2-for-1” technology means the hundreds of billions - soon trillions - of $$ in AI compute

    Since Bitcoin, a major open problem in distributed systems was whether proof-of-work consensus can be implemented on top of real-world computation rather than useless random hashing. This challenge of PoUW was repeatedly conjectured impossible by researchers and thought leaders.

    Quantum readiness is not a theoretical “someday” problem anymore. Last week, the White House signed an executive order requiring federal agencies to identify where they rely on quantum-vulnerable cryptography and start moving high-value systems to post-quantum standards. For

    400× Faster Hashing on GPUs: Rewriting BLAKE3 for Single-Input Parallelism
    When we think of standard GPU operations - matrix multiplications, attention, physical simulations - hashing is usually not the first thing that comes to mind. Hashing algorithms involve complex...

    A common critique on Proof-of-Useful-Work is that the zero marginal cost of mining drives the network’s security budget and price to zero. A paper just released by Rafael Pass, a renowned cryptographer at @Cornell /@TechnionLive and research scientist at Pearl Research Labs

    Will Fast Matrix Multiplication ever be practical? Strassen’s 1986 discovery of fast matrix multiplication (FMM) – asserting that the product of two 𝑛×𝑛 matrices can be computed in sub-cubic time 𝑛^𝜔 ∼ 𝑛²·⁸⁷ ≪ 𝑛³ – had a profound impact on theoretical computer science
