Distrust & Verify


DNZN // RESEARCH [ /den.ɪ.zən/ ] intends to be a technical resource for blockchain, cryptocurrency, and cypherpunk related projects. We operate under the principle of distrust |&| verify (a play on trust but verify). We do detailed smart contract analysis, breakdowns of technology and concepts, and/or anything else that we care about. We always challenge trust assumptions, but that does not imply that the projects we research and write about are maliscious. Distrust is the default, not the exception.

  • We |are| engineers with many years of experience in systems and software.
  • We |are not| blockchain/crypto experts, but we are learning.
  • We |are not| security analysts and we |do not| provide certified recommendations regarding risk.
  • We |are not| financial advisors and we |do not| provide financial advice.

The focus of this work is for |educational purposes only|. This is how we do research, to |better our own understanding| of the technologies and the mechanics employed by the projects that we are interested in. We will make every effort to provide links to external resources wherever possible so that you can |use your own brain| to formulate your own thoughts and opinions.

We acknowledge openly that much of the content on this site is |generated by robots|. All of the content is reviewed, edited, and |curated by humans|. There will be errors. There might even be wildly inaccurate information. If you spot an issue, please submit any feedback or concerns you might have.

We encourage you to |distrust us|, question everything you read, and as always... |do your own research|.
