Public blockchains and distributed public ledgers are experiencing centralization concerns around coin accumulation and mining power. The promise of true decentralization has remained, thus far, just a promise.
In this talk, Leemon presents Hedera's vision and methodical plan to go from a permissioned public network at open access this summer (US), to a truly decentralized and permissionless public network with massive scale. In order to achieve this, Hedera must establish a secure, decentralized foundation for its proof-of-stake network and utility for the network's native cryptocurrency HBAR (ℏ).
In this presentation, Cooper Kunz, Hedera’s developer evangelist, will take you back to the basics of blockchains, distributed ledgers, and Hedera Hashgraph. As someone who’s job it is to speak to engineers and run workshops about blockchains, cryptocurrencies, and Web 3.0, Cooper still gets a lot of people asking - “What is a blockchain? What is a distributed ledger? Is it just hype, or real tech?” in this livestream, they will attempt to explain these technologies for those yet to embrace them.

Abstract
In developing markets, many people do not have access to a stable currency or even a bank account, but they may have mobile devices with internet connection. Carbon aims to facilitate a more inclusive and efficient global economy by launching reliable, price-stable cryptocurrencies that leverage Hedera Hashgraph’s high throughput and security.
CarbonUSD is a compliant, price-stable cryptocurrency that is one-to-one backed with USD. Starting off with full fiat-collateralization is essential for bootstrapping the market's trust in a stablecoin without depending on the size of an initial reserve. The team has developed a novel mechanism for transitioning to a hybrid fiat-algorithmic stablecoin model once CarbonUSD reaches sufficient scale as a fully fiat-backed token.
By deploying the algorithmic stablecoin on Hedera Hashgraph with Ethereum interoperability, CarbonUSD users will be able to tap into an advanced payments networks where transactions are borderless, have minimal fees, and are settled within seconds. Additionally, CarbonUSD serves as a gateway into the distributed ledger economy where users can trade and hedge against tokenized assets or interact with smart contract applications.
Most societies need stable, sound money to function effectively. CarbonUSD is an accessible alternative for developing economies, where adoption may catalyze the convergence towards a more inclusive and efficient global economy.

Quantum Computing & Cryptography: A Brief IntroductionHedera Hashgraph
Often touted as the next computational paradigm, many race to develop the first large-scale quantum computer. Google’s recent announcement that they achieved quantum supremacy — the ability for a quantum computer to do something a classical computer cannot — highlights concerns on whether we are prepared for a post-quantum world, one in which widely deployed cryptographic algorithms are broken. But how advanced are quantum computers really, and should we be worried about their impact on distributed ledger technologies?
Join Atul Luykx, Head of Cryptography at Hedera Hashgraph, to learn how quantum computing is impacting cryptography and its applications. In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- What happens when cryptography is broken?
- How quantum computing breaks cryptography?
- What can be done to avoid quantum attacks?
- Hedera Hashgraph’s approach on quantum resistance in its consensus algorithm and public ledger.

Abstract
The music industry has been a long tale of technological disruption. From records to CDs to Napster to iTunes to Spotify, the emergence of new technologies enabled new modes of distribution and new business models. One common theme has remained throughout: artists never get a fair shake. With the emergence of blockchain and distributed ledger technology, a lot of speculation has swirled around how smart contracts can increase transparency and efficiency of rights attribution. While this might help the existing music industry improve their status quo of paying artists minuscule amounts per stream over 2 years late, I believe most are missing the bigger picture. The incumbent music industry licensing frameworks are designed to take the majority of the streaming revenue before it reaches the artists, and distributed ledger technology enables new business models for the long tail of artists to go direct to fan and cut out the middlemen. Hedera Hashgraph is the first technology platform that will enable truly seamless global micropayments for music streaming which can be deployed on an app at scale. With the perfect trinity of high speed performance, mathematically sound consensus, and virtually no transaction fees, Hedera Hashgraph is light years ahead of its competitors in both hard technology and governance structures. The groundbreaking potential of hashgraph is to revolutionize the music industry and democratize music distribution by disrupting the existing industry juggernauts. The ripple effect will be profound and the power will lie back in the hands of the artists.

2) A widely held but false belief or idea.
The distributed ledger space has both, and in this session I'll be focusing on the second interpretation— presenting a variety of myths about distributed ledger technologies. These ideas are often accepted as canonical fact, without justification, and today we will be demystifying them.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
