What does it take to trust a transaction end to end?
Manuel Wedler

A single contract interaction quietly trusts half a dozen remote services: an RPC, an explorer's "verified" badge, a served ABI, a simulation API, a wallet's decoder. Using a working open-source prototype, this talk shows you how every one of those layers can be verified locally on your device instead, and what still runs on trust.
