Congrats to @komasito55 for winning the @podc_disc 2026 Doctoral Dissertation Award for his thesis on "Optimal Byzantine Agreement with Little Cryptography" (link below)

We are thrilled to learn that 6 of 34 total accepted papers at this year’s Science of Blockchain Conference (SBC) were co-authored by Category Labs researchers, including some of our interns from last summer. See 🧵👇 for details on the individual submissions and stay tuned for the presentations at the conference at Stanford July 27 - 29.

We're excited to welcome @JanCamenisch to Category Labs! Jan is a cryptography researcher recognized for contributions to anonymous credentials, secure multi-party computation, privacy-preserving identity, verifiable computation, and trusted hardware security.

Category researchers and collaborators received a Distinguished Paper Award at IEEE S&P conference (@IEEESSP) for their paper related to private mempools. The techniques introduced were ultimately leveraged in BTX, our latest state-of-the-art Batched Threshold Encryption (BTE) scheme. Congratulations to our researchers: Amit Agarwal, Babak Poorebrahim Gilkalaye, @KushalBabel, @sourav1547, @PeterRindal
