While practical quantum computers capable of breaking modern cryptography do not yet exist, Tezos co-founder Arthur Breitman said some pockets of the crypto industry are treating quantum computing like a conspiracy theory while ignoring a legitimate threat to blockchain privacy. The warning comes as Tezos launches TzEL, a post-quantum privacy system on testnet designed to protect private payments and encrypted transaction data from future “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks. Breitman said Tezo...

Tezos Shooter ‘Reaper Actual’ From EverQuest Co-Creator Enters Alpha Playtesting

Video game veteran John Smedley—who helped build fan-favorites EverQuest, H1Z1, and PlanetSide—debuted his crypto open-world persistent shooter Reaper Actual on Wednesday in what is branded as a “Foundation Alpha” playtesting phase.

Tezos Co-Founder: U.S. ‘Consecration’ of Crypto Means Less Regulatory Ambiguity

Bitcoin's recent “parabolic” price rise reflects increased regulatory certainty in “major markets like the U.S.,” said Tezos co-founder Kathleen Breitman.

Agoria's 'Le Code d’Orsay': Inside the Musée d’Orsay’s First NFT Exhibition

Come February, however, the museum—a majestic 19th century railway station on the Seine’s Left Bank, lined with the masterworks of Monet, Manet, and van Gogh—will feature nary a stray CryptoPunk nor animated penguin. In fact, its new blockchain-backed art won’t utilize a single screen. “I don’t think it would be very relevant if I put 30 screens in a...

What is Tezos (XTZ)?

2Tezos is a lot like Ethereum. It is a platform to create smart contracts and Dapps that are censorship-free. As with the current iteration of Ethereum, Tezos runs on Proof-of-Stake. This means there is no crypto mining involved. It also features a governance model to ensure that people who own the coin have a say in decisions regarding the future of Tezos. As there are no miners, the people who check and confirm transactions are called “bakers” and they run what’s known as a “baking operation.”...

Tezos (XTZ) soared 7.5% overnight, whizzing past the majority of the crypto market which showed negative gains since yesterday, per CoinGecko data.
