zkWarsaw Meetup 15: TEEs, or On Accepting Compromises

​ZK enables new applications, but comes at a prohibitive cost or latency for many other ones. This talk by Orest Tarasiuk explores the tradeoffs that can be made by increasing the security assumptions towards temporarily accepting TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) in order to get to cheaper or lower-latency execution. It will focus on DeFi and highlight some new use cases that become feasible this way.

We'll be meeting IRL in Mindspace on Floor 1, Hala Koszyki, Warsaw, Poland. The entrance to the event room is located on the mezzanine floor of Hala Koszyki on the first floor. The stairs leading up to the mezzanine are next to Jeff's restaurant. After going upstairs, you will be able to see the event room — there is a big pink neon sign above it that says "The Event Space".
