Introduction to Replicant
Replicant is a fully free Android distribution that is approved by the FSF. This short talk will briefly explain: why Replicant came into being; the freedom, privacy and security issues it has found in devices aimed to run Android; and the approac...
Replicant is a fully free software Android distribution that puts emphasis on freedom, privacy and security. It is based on LineageOS and replaces or avoids every proprietary component of the system. Replicant is so far the only distribution for smartphones that is endorsed by the Free Software Foundation as meeting the Free System Distribution Guidelines.
Starting out as a project that aimed to make the HTC Dream smartphone usable with only free software, it proved that running Android on these devices was much simpler and effective than porting GNU/Linux to them. The main reason behind that lies in the Android architecture: while in GNU/Linux the hardware abstraction is done in the Linux kernel, in Android it is done in hardware abstraction libraries. This enabled hardware manufacturers to break the kernel API, making it very difficult to run GNU/Linux properly on such devices.
As the work progressed, the team took the opportunity to learn more about the hardware architecture of the smartphones they were supporting, as it has a big impact on freedom as well.
In most early Android Android devices, the modem was in control of everything, with full access to RAM, sound c...

Funding models of FOSS
Diego talks about various FOSS funding models, which are the most successful, and how to make FOSS sustainable for the upcoming years.
FOSS is in a very strange place where the entire internet runs off of its infrastructure, but it generates little money for the people responsible for maintenance and upkeep.
This talk looks at FOSS projects, big and small, as well as the unique challenges they face to keep their developers working on them, the consequences if they fall into disrepair, and sustainable, profitable funding models for them.

The Secret Truecrypt Audit from the BSI
In 2010 the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) created a security audit of the encryption software Truecrypt - and didn't publish it.
Truecrypt has an interesting and sometimes mysterious history. The anonymous creators suddenly stopped development in 2014 and warned about unfixed security issues, without further explanation. At the same time a donation-funded security audit was organized by cryptographer Matthew Green, which didn't find any serious issues. A fork of Truecrypt called Veracrypt is still developed today.
The audit by the BSI was only recently revealed with a request according to the German freedom of information law. It contains information about bugs in the code that are present until today.
The talk will present some of these findings and discuss the questionable role of the BSI.
Open Hardware Dialogues: Black Crystal #2

In the fourth iteration of the workshop "Black Crystal", which has been held previously at RIAT in Vienna, RIAT Cyprus and during HCPP19 in Prague - we are again focusing on Trezor Crypto Lib and on creating small applications based on the ESP32 MCU and the Arduino IDE.
A core focus of this workshop is to understand the constraints and limitations of cryptographic key generation, especially on slow devices. In the context of the workshop, participants will pragmatically explore different workflows, such as key generation, BIP39, entropy sources, shamir secret sharing. Workshop outcomes are shared in the code-repository of the workshop.
RIAT is an independent R+D institute focussing on Open Hardware, Blockchain and Privacy-Enabling technologies. The institute is active in Austria, Cyprus and the US and exists since 2012. The institute is one of the world’s earliest blockchain institutes. The cryptography and hardware division of RIAT exists since 2017 and works on communicating (open) hardware related topics to developers, enthusiasts and the general public.

P2P Trading in Cryptoanarchy
How can we trade directly with another party on the internet, without involving a trusted third party or legal system? Is there a way to trust the other party to be honest?
Bisq recently implemented a dispute resolution system that keeps contr...
Centralized exchanges rely on company policies and legal systems to ensure smooth operations. Decentralized exchanges mostly rely on trusted third parties to resolve disputes.
But what if we wanted to avoid trusting third parties and expensive and unpredictable legal systems?
How can we resolve disputes in a system of cryptoanarchy, where no one has absolute power?
Bisq's new dispute resolution system offers 1 approach, implemented recently in its move to 2-of-2 multisignature trade wallets where only the 2 traders have control over their funds (previously 2-of-3, where a trusted arbitrator held a third key). The new solution enabled Bisq to decentralize the trust formerly placed in arbitrators across 3 mechanisms that encourage both traders to follow the rules...and to punish them if they don't.
This talk covers the combination of game-theoretic, financial, and cryptographic tools to accomplish sovereign (and anonymous) peer-to-peer trading.

Nym
Nym is a decentralized and incentived mix-network that can defeat even global passive adversaries. This event will launch the "alpha" Rust mix-net of Nym, and demonstrate the use of validators to create anonymous authentication credentials to acce...
Nym builds a modern anonymous communication mix-net that is incentized, rewarding mix-nodes using "proof of mixing." Coming from thePANORAMIX project, the startup Nym Technologies from Neuchatel in Switzerland, has recently built the core mix-net infrastructure in Rust, and will do the first demonstration of the live "alpha" test-net at Chaos Computer Congress.
A mix-net is superior to Tor insofar as it uses delays and cover traffic to break patterns in metadata. Nodes that join get rewarded in tokens for successfully mixing traffic, using commitments to a VRF to generate fair sampling of the underlying network.
In order to prevent denial of service and sybil attacks, Nym uses anonymous authentication credentials, currently based on the Coconut signature scheme, famously acquired by Facebook and described at the last Chaos Computer Camp in this lecture. We'll demonstrate how the test-net works with these credentials and can validate them in a decentralized manner.

cyber~Congress
Our mission is to fuckGoogle and other megacorps. We are geeks that build open-source things. Code first. Everything else later.
My idea was to give a talk about the open source protocol we have created. Its main idea is to change the way we search for things by using sybil resistant mechanism for indexation and ranking, knowledge graphs and computational resources that are required for this.
The protocol is built with the help of ipfs and tendernint. The cool thing is that with changing Semantics we create along much more use cases that web 3 browsers (which are in fact personal applications), we can create unified linguistics, autonomous robots, solve some basic income issues, program complex matrices, create language convergence, proof of location, etc
Our main goal is to fuckgoogle, which is basically our motto. So the idea was to talk about the issues we underestimate that derive from centralized search, ranking, indexation, etc. Why search is important and why web 2 is broken

Building an (Actual) Alternative
Privacy and freedom within the context of cryptocurrencies, zero-knowledge-proof systems, decentralised protocols and other privacy protection layers is about co-creating and co-shaping alternatives to empower individuals to control their own data...
Digital surveillance threatens human rights – including privacy and freedom of expression and association, inhibiting the free functioning of a vibrant civil society. While the origins of cryptocurrency may have sought to build an alternative, transparent blockchains and the requirement for KYC/AML checks has proven to blur the lines between private data collection and state tracking once again. This compromises our fundamental human right to financial privacy in the digital era and is positioning the public ledger as a new behaviour extraction and censorship tool. We are at risk of perpetuating, rather than challenging, the system.
Monero, arguably the last bastion of cypher-punk resistance in the crypto space, is contributing to an _actual_ alternative through the conscious engineering of privacy-by-default technology that enables fungible, private, censorship-resistant financial transactions. This lightning talk will examine the current status-quo, the role that the Monero community and pro-privacy developers have in co-creating and co-shaping an alternative vision and what it will take to build the counter-narrative against the real politick of surveillance capitalism and...

Almonit project: Decentralized Websites
Almonit is a project for decentralized websites and web services.
Decentralized websites and web services are an alternative to the way the web functions today. They combine decentralized storage (like IPFS), decentralized name services (like E...
How does the web function? Generally speaking, it uses servers to provide content or services, and DNS to provide access to those servers.
The Almonit project provides an alternative to the traditional server-DNS model. Instead of a server, we use decentralized storage (like IPFS), and instead of DNS, we use a decentralized name service (like ENS). We provide tools, methods and a portal for creating and accessing the decentralized web.
The decentralized websites and web services scene is very new. In its current form, it was developed mostly in 2019. So far, it contains around a 100 websites experimenting with the technology, but its potential is promising. We envision it being used to create community-driven websites which would be made, moderated and maintained by a community instead of a central entity.
This lecture describes the Almonit project, its architecture and technical details. We also present the ecosphere of decentralized websites and web services in which the project is created, and survey the past, present and also possible future use-cases of this technology, including its limitations.

On bitcoin-monero atomic swaps
In this talk we propose an approach on bitcoin-monero atomic swap, its development state and open problems.
Cross-chain atomic swaps have been discussed for a very long time and are very useful tools. In blockchains where hashed timelock contracts are doable atomic swaps are already deployed, but when one blockchain doesn't have this capability it becomes a challenge. This protocol describes how to achieve atomic swaps between Bitcoin and Monero with two transactions per chain without trusting any central authority, servers, nor the other swap participant. We propose a swap between two participants, one holding bitcoin and the other monero, in which when both follow the protocol their funds are not at risk at any moment. The protocol does not require timelocks on Monero side nor script capabilities, but requires two zero-knowledge proofs to secure the setup phase.

Hundreds of messaging platforms have launched and failed over the last 50 years. One has grown voraciously, netting 3.8 billion users, and handling 103 trillion messages each year.
Like the Internet itself, email is decentralised and censorship resistant by design. It is technically extensible, powered by Free Software, and Open Standards agreed independently by consensus.
LinkedIn, Facebook, Google and others are racing to own the future of this space, with Gmail alone accounting for 28% of email opens in 2018, in Western countries. Email's freedom, privacy, and security are taken for granted and under threat.
What formula made email outlive it's contenders until now? What recent innovations are making it hip again? And what economic model could bring a renaissance of decentralised, Free Software messaging on the multi-billion user scale?

Designing a communal computing interface
How does a full peer-to-peer stack change how we organise and present user interfaces? If the PC was a 1970s desk for single-player computing, what's the right way to think of the way we actually use networks: communally? Matilde Park presents som...
When we talk about decentralisation as a movement, we often focus on the principles of cypherpunks and hackers; we describe it as a movement away from central command structures with imbalanced power dynamics; freely and totally owning your hardware, sharing what you know with others, constructing the world in a direct and transparent way.
However, I think it has even more power than that. I think it can completely change how we use computers and where we fit them into our lives. I’d like to posit that decentralisation necessitates rethinking a lot of the ways people interact with computers -- and that the interfaces we use everyday are themselves relics of a creeping, inevitable centralisation in place since the 1970s.
As I work on Urbit as a userspace developer, I've found that we've come to some conclusions about how to discuss peer-to-peer operating systems — in ways that are agnostic to any stack that designs itself for seamless transitions between participating in peer swarms, and everyday, individual computing.

Weekend-long hacking competition focused on privacy, individual freedom, decentralization and viable system exploits. Each track will have three winning teams awarded with prize money (cryptocurrency) & sw from the sponsors. Code submissions have to be open sourced.
Hackers Congress Paralelni Polis (HCPP) has been successful in gathering great minds and thinkers from the Cypherpunk and Cryptoanarchist space. Yet all of the topics and ideas discussed during the congress are only as good as they can be applied, performed or achieved. Hackatoshis's Flying Circuit should motivate hackers, makers and developers to take their tools and skills into practice. The key goal of the hackathon is to prototype new concepts that will help people to protect their digital identity or exploit existing systems that were built to constrain personal freedom.
