Real-time settlement and sub-second finality for custom, sovereign chains. Built for enterprises that demand performance and control in a multi-chain world. ☕️
Congrats to our co-founder & CEO @benafisch (also a Yale professor) on his National Science Foundation CAREER award. It'll fund years of research into private, verifiable computation, the kind of cryptographic primitives tomorrow's digital economy will be built on.
Ben Fisch (@benafisch) assistant professor of computer science at #YaleEngineering, has won a National Science Foundation (@NSF) CAREER Award for his work on cryptographic systems that ensure data confidentiality and computational accuracy.

The caffeine is coming ☕
@EspressoSys pre-confirmations are coming to Celo later this year!
@KateGielty & @jillgun explain why low latency & fast finality are crucial for global stablecoin payments
Espresso Systems got its start building a privacy product for compliant stablecoin payments. Then came the pivot that changed everything.
CEO & Co-Founder @benafisch on how Espresso got to where it is today.
What is a SNARK, and why do hash-based SNARKs matter for post-quantum security?
@kleptographic breaks it down in simple terms, from our X Space on Flock with @SuccinctLabs last week.
Listen back to the full conversation from last week.
We covered Q-Day timelines, why Ethereum is betting on hash-based signatures, what makes Flock stand out, and where post-quantum cryptography is heading.
Like wire transfers crossing many banks, crosschain transactions with slow finality rely on intermediaries that add time, cost, and points of failure before settling.
Espresso removes the middlemen, finalizing a chain's new state in real time so others can act on it immediately.
Missed yesterday's spaces on Flock?
We've got you covered with notes on:
→ Q-day timelines
→ Flock: The fastest SNARK prover for standard hashes
→ What it means for Ethereum's post-quantum roadmap
ft. @benediktbuenz, @ronrothblum, @kleptographic and @drakefjustin.
Espresso was built as infrastructure, not a venue.
It doesn't host apps or run custom logic. It gives chains fast finality and real-time settlement, then gets out of the way. What those chains host, who uses them, and how they're architected stays with the teams building them.
Make sure to join us and @SuccinctLabs at 11:00 AM ET for a live conversation on Flock. We'll cover what Flock is, what problem it solves, and why it matters.
Hear from authors @benediktbuenz, @ronrothblum, @kleptographic, and guest @drakefjustin.

Financial institutions are not all going to agree to run on one chain. The future is multi-chain, and Espresso is built to be a fundamental building block underneath it.
@benediktbuenz, Chief Scientist at Espresso, on why custom chains win and where Espresso fits in.
