There is an ongoing debate on X about lattice versus hash-based cryptography in blockchain design, with Zcash cofounder Eli Ben Sasson, Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin , and Delphi Labs GC Gabriel Shapiro joining the discussion. The conversation began with a16z crypto making the case for embracing lattices in a recent X post. In a write-up, a16z crypto explained its rationale; it claims Ethereum's planned hash-only signature aggregation design relies on SNARK recursion, with the coordination overhead, bug surface, and unestablished security that come with this approach.
