IC3 Webinar: Attacks on Bitcoin and the Lightning Network

2021 has seen unprecedented interest in Bitcoin and related technologies like the Lighting Network. As these technologies see increases in use, volume, and price, we must consider: how secure and private are they really? Please join us for our February webinar to learn about two relevant attacks from IC3 researchers at Cornell and UCL.

Talk 1: "BDoS: Blockchain Denial of Service"
Presented by Yan Ji (Cornell)

Talk 2: "An Empirical Analysis of Privacy in the Lightning Network"
Presented by George Kappos (UCL) and Haaroon Yousaf (UCL)
