S4E10 Mina and the Importance of Zero Knowledge w. Kurt Hemecker (CEO, Mina Foundation)

Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology has gathered a huge following globally, but is still little-known and under-appreciated in Web3 circles. But it is showing huge value providing scalability and data protection for Web3 builders and users alike.
Boasting an impressive CV, including the likes of PayPal, Diem, Libra and now Mina, Kurt Hemecker knows a thing or two about bringing complex technology to regulated industries. Which is exactly the skillset Web3 needs right now.
On this show we'll discuss:
- Kurt's path to Mina
- The mission and role of Mina Foundation
- The importance of ZK tech for Web3
- Examples of ZK apps and use cases that Mina are supporting
- What more is needed to see wider use of ZK and Web3 tech
