10/ The Path Ahead
Berlin was just the start.
The goal: a fully private, decentralized internet. Next stop: LabWeek Web3 in Buenos Aires, during the Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress.

9/ Trusted Computing
Enterprises are driving early adoption for hardened supply chains.
The question now: how to extend those benefits to user-facing privacy systems.
Expect a position piece soon on this landscape.

8/ Wallet Privacy
Most wallets leak user info to RPC providers.
Two emerging directions:
1️⃣ Private identity mechanisms (ed25519 support helps here)
2️⃣ Shared conformance testing led by PSE, to make privacy more interoperable across wallets.

7/ Jurisdictions
Hosting infrastructure remains too concentrated in the U.S.
Builders discussed paths for distributed operators in lower-liability jurisdictions — with ongoing work through projects like eurosky.social.

6/ Grants for conformance testing could help map “equivalent DIDs” and reduce fragmentation in identity systems.

5/ Decentralized Identity
Builders are extending AT Protocol to handle payments (via Cashu) and bridge into private group messaging (via Germ).
Interoperability between DIDs — and even object-based DIDs — was a key theme.

One project already showing results: publishing content privately via a Tor-packaged web server.
The Internet Archive is testing how entities can host archival data slices with minimal liability.

3/ Teams explored ways to make nodes appear generic: harder to fingerprint or probe by an active adversary.
Deniable introductions and common network behaviors are part of the design work continuing post-retreat.

2/ Secure Communications Adoption
A big topic: creating larger anonymity sets for peer-to-peer networks.
Centralized DHT bootstrapping remains a weak point — it’s how many protocols get blocked or surveilled.
