I made this video a while ago about how blinded signatures can be used for chaumian ecash: https://vimeo.com/731755923

Today i hacked up a little python script showing how lamport signatures work: https://github.com/rot13maxi/lamportsigs

Im thinking of producing some more content to explain how other elements of cryptography work. Id love your feedback:

1) what medium do you think is easier to understand: video demo (see above), interactive demo you can run (see above), long form blog? Something else?

2) what things from cryptography are you curious about and would love to learn more about? High level protocols, block cipher operating modes, specific ciphers, signing schemes?

If you look at this and say “this is a total snooze”, thats helpful too :)

Thanks!

Love the python. But what would be awesome is the python with a rap genius interface.

1. Blog with detailed explanation of example code, easier to follow/understand than a video imo

2. Common cryptography used in bitcoin/web/communication
