S4E18 Web Proofs: Using ZK to Regain Ownership of your Data w. Hubert Rachwalski von Rejchwald (CEO, vlayer labs)

Blockchain Won't Save the World

The ZK series continues with Hubert and vlayer: an exciting team looking to give back control and equitability of data using Blockchain technology...

If you're not paying attention to zero-knowledge technology at this point in the evolution of the internet and decentralised applications, you should be. And it's refreshing to see that not all teams are correlating the 'data opportunity' with just AI - but the wider petabytes of data that humans and businesses create every day.

On this show, Hubert and I will delve deeper into the applications for ZK in building a more equitable internet for all of us, including:

- WTF are Web Proofs

- Why the world needs another data infrastructure company (and where others have failed to-date)

- Learnings from Hubert's experience with data fraud, and what needs to change to protect sensitive data in future

- The vlayer origin story, and major use cases

- Why people should care about data protection

- Alternative approaches to data protection and comparisons
