ModaPalas Blackboard | Cryptography II
Here Comes the 2nd ModaPalas Blackboard Session | Cryptography! 🔑
ModaPalas has always been more than just a venue, it’s a space where curious minds gather, ideas take flight, and boundaries are pushed. And now, we’re back for round two and this time, it’s even better!
If you were at the first session, you know what we mean: we couldn’t stop until the early morning, staring at the "blackboard" filled with incredible ideas and challenging questions.
