Short Bio

George holds an Meng in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens. His thesis topic included a study about balancing privacy and auditability in decentralized payment systems. They proposed a private, and auditable payment system built on top of Quisquis, which enables voluntary or policy-driven audits without compromising the privacy of users or transaction. He is currently a PhD student in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering of NTUA.

PhD research on "AQQUA: a Private and Auditable Digital Payment System"
Abstract: Privacy and auditability are often viewed as conflicting properties in payment systems. We design a decentralized, censorship-resistant payment system that achieves both simultaneously, enabling private transactions with verifiable audits.
