Finding meaning behind immortality of Anne Rice’s vampires. by Nurhayati Zakaria.

“…This paper investigates the alluring appeal of immortality through the exploration of humans’ instinctive anxieties against death; it shows how experience in life shapes an individual’s personality and character which in turn is fossilized and magnified during his or her immortal existence; and finally illustrates how the very nature of being trapped in a state of arrested development renders the disenchanted vampire’s perspective of immortality as one that is more limiting rather than liberating.…”

Channelized coinShuffle++ : practical unlinkability in the ethereum blockchain by Xiong, Luoyuan

“…The duplication of ledger provides public verifiability while also give rise to deanonymization attacks and unlinkability violations, where users’ real world identities are linked to their pseudonymous blockchain accounts. Even though some recently proposed protocols that utilize Ring Signatures [1] or Zero Knowledge Proof [2] have effectively mitigated those attacks, the computational overhead and monetary cost that comes along with those fancy cryptographic primitives render them less usable, which arguably contribute to their poor adoption. …”
