Privacy can exist on a spectrum. When it comes to this hot topic of blockchain privacy and compliance, it’s easy to think in absolute terms. But the unfortunate truth is that this is rarely a binary, even in real life. This conversation is increasingly important as different jurisdictions start to regulate the roles of individuals,

We’ve looked into privacy coins and their history since the early Bitcoin days. We’ve also looked at the emerging shift towards privacy-preserving blockchains and how they leverage different methods like zk proofs. Now let’s look at the relationship between these two technologies and how one has led to the other. The Difference Between the Two

There’s a lot of open source development in web3. The space benefits greatly from a fast and integrated iterative process where old and new technologies can be quickly applied to use cases — one of these being financial privacy. As we saw, zero knowledge technology has been around for a while. There’s been experimentation with

Blockchain technology relies heavily on a broader category of development within computer science–cryptography. In fact, most of its underlying mechanisms are based on cryptographic concepts. Hashing algorithms, public and private keys, and other key components that blockchain users usually become familiar with. They are the building blocks that ensure that blockchain networks remain censorship resistant

Almost two decades into Web2, privacy continues to be one of the hot topics in our digital lives. That’s because in order to solve this problem, there are fundamental parts of how the internet works that have to be redesigned. They have to be built so that they’re “privacy-preserving” from the ground up. This is
