Meet Giacomo Fenzi, the Italian bastion of cryptography and a researcher at BSA @ EPFL🦇🔊 with a deep interest in ZK proofs. He shares the two key areas of private applications: digital anonymous transaction networks like Zcash 🛡️ or @0xPolygonMiden, and anonymous credentials.

"You cannot stop progress, [...] you cannot stop math". Antonio Sanso is a cryptographer and researcher at the Ethereum Foundation, specializing in elliptic curves. He shares his research on post-quantum Ethereum and explains how cryptography is embedded into our daily lives.

"Cryptography rearranges power, it configures who can do what". What motivates Giacomo Fenzi beyond his intellectual curiosity? Behind every passion lies a greater mission, a desire to shape the world as we envision it.

An amazing opportunity to uncover Robert Hambrock's research on atomic swaps. Here, he mentions the advantages of atomic swaps and offers a comparison to current alternatives.

We spoke to humn/acc | S El Damaty, CEO of human.tech by Holonym, to discuss how their identity verification and Sybil resistance protocol ensures funds are distributed to real, unique users in a privacy preserving way. In our next episode we'll dive into the privacy features of the protocol.

There are various methods human.tech by Holonym employs to verify on-chain personhood without exposing personal information. From on-chain reputation, increasingly challenged by the rise of AI, to strategies like "conviction" staking, biometrics or digital IDs.
