Nubit | Bitcoin Thunderbolt

Nubit | Bitcoin Thunderbolt

Nubit boosts Bitcoin into a rail for instant, low-fee payments and asset issuance. As a core contributor to the Bitcoin Thunderbolt, Nubit introduced UTXO Bundling, a cryptographic protocol that enables instant Bitcoin transfer while preserving self-custody, and enabled the integration of USD1, the only USD-backed stablecoin running directly on the Bitcoin mainnet.

I am currently a Professor in the Department of Computer Science of UCSB, where I head of the Foundations of Financial Technology ("FifTech") lab (https://fiftech.cs.ucsb.edu/). For the past two decades, my work brought scientific innovation into fruition in several industrial leadership positions: currently, a Distinguished Scientist of Chainlink Labs (https://chainlinklabs.com/), and a consultant to Espresso Systems(https://www.espressosys.com/), Nubit (https://www.nubit.org/), and Spacecoin (https://www.nubit.org/). Formerly, I was the CTO of the Diem Association (https://www.diem.com/en-us/) and Lead Researcher at Novi Financial (https://about.fb.com/news/2020/05/welcome-to-novi/) from 2019 to 2022. In 2014, I co-founded VMware Research (https://octo.vmware.com/introduction-vrg/) and became a Principal Researcher at VMware until June 2019. Prior to that, I was a partner principal researcher at Microsoft Research, 2004-2014; a tenured Associate Professor of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and a senior researcher at AT&T Labs. In over two decades encompassing both academic and industrial research, I have brought contributions in broad aspects of reliability and security of distributed systems, recently with focus on blockchains and advances in financial technology, resulting in (over 200) papers as well as a strong impact on the computing technology. My homepage (https://malkhi.com/about) provides a short professional bio and a list of recent publications.
