At its 10th year edition, Financial Cryptography and Data Security
(FC'06) is a well established and major international forum for
research, advanced development, education, exploration, and debate
regarding security in the context of finance and commerce. Kicking off
this the 10th year festivities is our Keynote Address by the renowned
cryptographer Ron Rivest.  One of the most influential figures in
cryptography, Ron will review some of his past predictions and lessons
learned over the last 10 years, and prognosticate directions for the
next decade.  The conference will also feature an invited talk by
Michael Froomkin, "Are We All Cypherpunks Yet?", about the current
legal landscape of Financial Cryptography.

Registration for Financial Cryptography 2006 is now open; details and
online registration can be found at http://fc06.ifca.ai along with
information about discounted hotel accommodation and travel.

Financial Cryptography is organized by the International Financial
Cryptography Association (IFCA). More information can be obtained from
the IFCA web site at http://www.ifca.ai or by contacting the
conference general chair, Patrick McDaniel, at mcdaniel at cse.psu.edu.
