Julia – IR for Ethereum Contracts
Brief introduction to Julia, a new intermediate language to be used in the Solidity compiler. It reduces the complexity of the compiler, helps in auditing contracts and makes supporting multiple VMs, such as EVM 1.5 and eWASM, possible.
What would Solidity 1.0 and 2.0 look like?
Solidity has quite a long history already, especially in terms of "crypto years". Yet, the project has not yet reached the "magical" 1.0 release. This talk is discussing what the language could look like reaching 1.0; and going beyond reaching 2.0.
EVM-first EIPs Workshop
This is a workshop discussion about the EVM. Anyone can come up and pitch their favourite EVM-first EIPs. We want to be a bit more unconventional and would like to transform the room into a "live voting space" where attendees can fight for their favourite new EVM feature. Different proposals will be listed and discussed for 3-5 minutes each, where invited panelists give a short opinion followed by loud interaction from the audience.
Mango - Git Completely Decentralized
This presentation will cover an introduction to the problem, explanation of Mango itself, and how it could be further developed to provide all the convenience of GitHub in a decentralised manner.
What's next in EVM
What is the future of the EVM? This talk will include an overview of proposals to the EVM, many listed and some detailed. It will try to explain the likely hood of adopting them and what needs to be done to make sure they get adopted.
Augur
Dr. Jack Peterson presents on Augur (http://www.augur.net/), an open-source, decentralized prediction market built on Ethereum.
Digital Identity
Christian Lundkvist of ConsenSys (https://consensys.net/) presents on digital identity.
Introduction to Snarks
Blockchains are a hostile world were all information is public and computations are expensive. A technology called zkSNARKs is coming to the rescue: It allows both a tremendous speedup in verifying the correctness of a computation while at the same time it hides the private details from prying eyes. This talk tries to give an idea about how and why it works.
Missing Links in the Ethereum Stack
Observations about what developer tools missing from the Ethereum stack, yet currently available to traditional web developers.
