​[_N_](http://noconsensus.wtf/)[oConsensus.wtf](http://noconsensus.wtf/) brings together researchers and engineers to discuss **censorship-resistance, scalability, and anonymity in blockchain p2p layers**. At this event we’ll explore various **Ethereum P2P bottlenecks,** R&D in **anonymous broadcast (e.g.** **[ZipNet](https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/1227)** **, ADC Net),** and[Information Flow Control](https://papers.agoric.com/assets/pdf/papers/robust-composition.pdf) for P2P Confidential Containers.

​No product or marketing pitches, presentations are meant to calibrate discussions. Expect to exchange research insights and get ready to whiteboard.
