Part of Devcon Week 2024

This event took place on Sunday, November 10, 2024 at 6:00 PM UTC.

Quantum cryptography is cryptography that derives its properties from the laws of quantum physics. ​This new frontier could allow us to build more secure digital systems, backed by quantum physics instead of computational assumptions. It could also allow us to create novel cryptographic primitives, unlocking a new set of applications previously impossible in the classical world. ​We call quantumpunk all individuals who are excited about the potential of this technology, and who work to accelerate it in order to build a more secure internet, to defend digital rights, and to usher in a new wave of quantum technologies. ​Devcon vii is a first stop for the nascent quantumpunk community. Join us on the evening of the 10th for an introduction to quantum crypto and some quantumpunk ideas. The evening will start at 6pm with a few lightning talks from people in both quantum and crypto worlds. This will be followed by unstructured time for people to chat around with food and drinks.
