S4E17 ZK Chain & An Insiders Guide to Zero-Knowledge w. Ken Timsit
Blockchain Won't Save the World - A podcast by Anthony Day - Saturdays
Many (including myself) are hailing ZK as the technology that will finally enable mass adoption of Web3. But how? And what's missing today that ZK provides?
Ken Timsit is a Web3 veteran and a strong advocate for ZK tech. He is MD of Cronos Labs and its Particle B ecosystem accelerator, and was previously CRO at Consensys.
On this show, we're going to be covering as much as possible on the proposition and benefits of zero-knowledge, and how it is being applied in Web3 today, including:
- An introduction to Cronos
- An overview of the ZK landscape, and how it’s being used today (Roll-ups, data protection, EVMs, L1s vs. L2s) - Important use cases for ZK
- The opportunity for ZK and DeFi to drive further adoption - Challenges and limitations of ZK today
- What more is required for wider adoption of Web3 in general
