Zero Knowledge & Quantum w/ Eli Ben-Sasson
Galaxy Brains About this episode
Alex Thorn talks with Starkware CEO & Co-Founder and Zcash Co-Founder Eli Ben-Sasson about blockchain scaling, zero-knowledge proofs, DeFi, and the potential for quantum computing to threaten blockchain security. Alex also talks with Beimnet Abebe (Galaxy Trading) about Greenland, debt markets, and bitcoin price action. Participants, along with Galaxy, hold a financial interest in Bitcoin (BTC) and Zcash (ZEC). Galaxy regularly engages in buying and selling Bitcoin and Zcash, including hedging transactions, for its own proprietary accounts and on behalf of its counterparties. Galaxy also provides services to vehicles that invest in Bitcoin and Zcash. If the value of such assets increases, those vehicles may benefit, and Galaxy’s service fees may increase accordingly. The valuation in this communication is based on technical, fundamental, and market analysis and not on any formal valuation method.
