URGENT STATEMENT FROM HEAD OF HR:. It has recently come to my attention that Noir devs are being targeted. Noir devs are not your personal ‘style icons’ or ‘big-brain inspo.’ They’re here to build groundbreaking tech, not to field questions about their legendary drip. We’d like.
Bangkok is NOT safe. Over the last week I’ve been wearing some rare pieces of clothing. People look at me with envy, vaguely commenting how they’d like to wear what I wear, asking what is needed to get it…. I don’t feel safe anymore wearing @aztecnetwork and @NoirLang t-shirts.

Today, crypto wallet signatures are malleable, e.g., one crypto wallet can make two different signatures. PLUME signatures are deterministic, preventing one wallet from making two different signatures & faking two identities. Build PLUME verifications in Noir and we'll fund it.
We would like to have PLUME signatures in @NoirLang. Grants program goes brrr. Any cryptographers wanting to collaborate, please get in touch!.
