The Bitcoin Lightning Network, a second-layer (L2) solution proposed by Joseph Poon and Thaddeus Dryja in 2015 and launched by Lightning Labs in 2018, is designed to address scalability issues… Read More »The Lightning Network: The L2 solution to scale Bitcoin
At Block&Capital, as experts in technology recruitment, there are many LinkedIn profiles that we analyze every day and, although some may reflect a lack of interest or lack of knowledge,… Read More »Boost your LinkedIn profile and get the most out of it
As discussed in previous articles, blockchains face major scalability challenges due to the decentralized nature of the network. Limitations in bandwidth, processing, and node storage restrict transaction per minute (TPM)… Read More »Payment channels and state channels in Blockchain technology
In the field of artificial intelligence, knowledge distillation (KD) has become a very interesting technique to optimize models without significantly sacrificing their performance. This process, which allows the transfer of… Read More »AI knowledge distillation for the development of more efficient models
As we have discussed in previous articles on optimistic rollups and ZK-rollups, these two scaling technologies have established themselves as fundamental solutions within the distributed ledger technology (DLT) ecosystem, specifically… Read More »Optimistic Rollups vs ZK-Rollups: Comparing the best scalability strategy
Since the beginnings of Bitcoin and its native token and other cryptocurrencies that have revolutionized the current financial system, the transparency inherent in the most widely used blockchains, with the… Read More »Crypto mixers: What are they and which are the risks associated with them?
Zero-Knowledge Rollups (ZK-Rollups) are L2 scalability solutions designed to increase the performance of distributed technologies (DLT), particularly in the context of blockchains, by moving state computation and storage off-chain. They… Read More »ZK-Rollups, ZK-SNARKs, ZK-STARKs and Validity Proofs: Everything you need to know
Although phishing attacks are an increasingly common threat and we are most of the time aware of their existence, in moments of vulnerability we may fall for them without realizing… Read More »What to do after a phishing attack?
As distributed networks evolve, the challenge of scaling without compromising decentralization and security remains an important priority. In this scenario, optimistic rollups emerge as a key solution that allows these… Read More »Optimistic Rollups: A solution to scale while maintaining decentralization and security
The use of biometrics instead of alphanumeric passwords has a number of significant benefits, especially in terms of security, convenience and user experience. Still, not all forms of biometrics have… Read More »Is iris the safest biometric password?
