ToDo: make a list of 3 With Honors msc projects. Could spend 3 months on this if Q4 is also available. 80% of bsc thesis project where based upon Machine...

- Awesome topic :tada: Worked on this in previous century :grin: - No DAO dream without fixing ID layer - No global democracy without Sybil Solution - Sybil attack is...

still struggling to see a simple With Honors idea - meta wallet is complex - Sybil is complex - DAO is probably best ZKP context Brainstorm: - all forms of...

- running code :astonished: :confetti_ball: - Great find that the EUID wallet is getting usable! - Thesis direction - algorithm 1: full blast theory without scalability or even practicality -...

Solid progress!! Next step is then identifying the state-of-the-art in ZKP, vote counting, and system architecture. Upcoming sprint: What are the design choices, the design space and possible architectures? Lots...

As systems people, please try to look at _real_ examples. Avoid fantasy digital designs, try 1979 real voting: - [Voting Systems In Agricultural Cooperatives](https://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/152898/files/fcrr2.pdf) - 1979 - [The one member-one...

Solid tech progress! Designing the architecture, as you encounter design decisions while implementing everything all-at-once. Not an every expanding MvP approach. The _lets-get-coding_ development methodology 🤣 So .APK coming soon...

Scientific contribution brainstorm: - Engineering is not science. - Switch for 2-3 sprints into **Science Mode**. Stop coding. - ~~Verify and test the scalability of the given protocol to big...

### Making storyline clear with explicit novelty Usage of 1987 technology: [Zero knowledge proofs of identity](https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/28395.28419). Many proposal, not solved yet! **Science:** novel thing (protocol,architecture superior BulletProof)(_unbounded_ scalability of democracy;...

Mixing a few Pallier papers? It that your sole science contribution? 🤔 ⚡ 😕 You still need a unique science contribution! Below some text comments (minor issue for this moment)....
