Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
The linked posts are security research on cryptography and smart contracts, such as algebraic attacks on ZK hash functions. One comment is a company founder's services pitch, and the other cites the post as an example.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
