DESCRIPTION:A long line of recent research has demonstrated th
 at existing cryptocurrencies often do not achieve 
 the level of anonymity that users might expect the
 y do\, while at the same time another line of rese
 arch has worked to increase the level of anonymity
  by adding new features to existing cryptocurrenci
 es or creating entirely new cryptocurrencies. This
  talk will explore both of these lines of research
 \, demonstrating both de-anonymization attacks and
  techniques for anonymity that achieve provably se
 cure guarantees.\n\nBio:\n\nSarah Meiklejohn is a 
 Reader in Cryptography and Security at University 
 College London. She has broad research interests i
 n computer security and cryptography\, and has wor
 ked on topics such as anonymity and criminal abuse
 s in cryptocurrencies\, privacy-enhancing technolo
 gies\, and bringing transparency to shared systems
 .
