Cannot express how amazing this feels,
thanks to @eigenlabs @jieyilong and all other contributors.
thanks to all those DM's and messages of love.
And also thanks to my @OctavFi team mates for giving me the push to keep going further.
The paper is led by @jieyilong, CTO of @Theta_Network, with coauthors from @ethereumfndn, @StarkWareLtd, @Starknet, @trailofbits, @brevis_zk, @SeiNetwork, @pauli_group, @OctavFi, @sciencevr, @nasqret at Adam Mickiewicz University, and researchers at Warsaw University of Technology and Stanford's Free Systems Lab.
On the comparison, the 2 efforts use different interfaces and accounting conventions, so the paper treats this as a numerical comparison rather than a formal claim.
Craig Gidney and Tanuj Khattar of @GoogleQuantumAI reviewed the manuscript before publication.

Your auditor asks for NAV on a date that's already in the past.
We rebuilt it block by block, and found a $1M+ position that wasn't on anyone's list.
not a bad saturday
- get liquidated at 1000x
- submit a record breaking 732 Qubit circuit on ecdsa.fail
- win at a friendly race of go-karts
- add support for @DeriveXYZ V3 on @OctavFi

you might think the bunker talk is fud. another pivot to pump some magic internet coins.
or you open your eyes and point your clanker (or your brain) at the curves. ecdsa fail.
that chart is the price of the hard part of the quantum attack on your signatures. 10.7B in may. under 1B today. @BitW0nka hit this week and took another tenth.
forget the unreleased lab models. this is bitwonka with claude and a gc of gardeners and lunatics. a public model, on a public leaderboard.
autoresearchers don't wait for a lab to explain reality to them. they break into new ones.
we always knew a quantum computer eats your curves. the only question was the price, and the price is in freefall.
start now and it's a migration. wait and it's headlights.
c u in the bunker
getting cited in research papers just hits different ... AI is enabling us to do things we could never have imagined
I have the utmost respect for researchers now, can not imagine how they've been achieving all this for multiple decades without such assistance
Happy to announce my latest work with @skominers and @SuccinctJT !

TLDR: we transfer the techniques from better.codes to yield 5-10% proof size reductions in several SNARKs today, and supply an efficient decoder for knowledge soundness

Proud to have the best engineers at Octav! @BitW0nka is a one of the best. Good job

At @OctavFi we started something new and it's already paying off.
Every Friday, the entire team drops the roadmap and builds an AI project. One rule: it has to make our lives easier or bring more value to our customers. A few weeks in, the results speak for themselves.
@ATTRIUS_ built an app that reads everything across Telegram, Slack, email and Pipedrive, then generates a full map of our customers and exactly how we can serve them better.
@Charlie85270R shipped a side-by-side comparison of every data provider on the market. He also built a loop that hunts down every unknown contract address in our database and tries to match it. (V1 in the next post.)
@BitW0nka created a harness to spin up a loop for any agent. We now have agents continuously scanning our entire database, so we're never blindsided by a missing protocol or contract.
@LucBlackburn built an agent that reviews every repo every 30 minutes and trains on them, catching bugs fast and flagging old code that should be upgraded to new patterns.
The takeaway: if you're not running local LLMs, you're already behind.
At @OctavFi we run multiple Mac Studios and Mac Minis, hold several Claude and Codex licenses, and just added 2 new DGX Sparks to the stack.
If you want help optimizing or upgrading your own workflow, ping me. Happy to share what's working.
my favorite part 👀
I built ecdsafail.rocks/ as a live observability layer for the ECDSA Fail challenge.
The official leaderboard shows who is winning.
I wanted to show the story:
- live frontier
- best score over time
- solver rankings
- author pages
- model rankings
- improvement by model family
- milestones
- playbook
- resource library
The model rankings are one of my favorite parts.
A lot of the challenge is AI-assisted, so the site tracks credited models in promoted submissions: which models helped remove the most score, how model families compare, and how their contributions evolved over time.
ECDSA Fail is about optimizing secp256k1 quantum-resource circuits.
ECDSAfail.rocks is about making the race readable.

Witnessing how @BitW0nka made big jumps on qubits and gates on ecdsa.fail contest surely is one of my 2026 highlights

Is anyone really that surprised that it’s an @OctavFi dev leading the race to outperform Google’s quantum circuitry in their spare time?
Should see what @mbaril010 has the team cooking in business hours 👀
A CLAUDE FABLE 5 USER IS NOW AT THE TOP OF THE ECDSA(.)FAIL LEADERBOARD
@BitW0nka's latest submission pushes the frontier to 41.0% ahead of Google’s classified circuit.
The frontier is moving in public.
