bonus DS bonus DS today I want to talk
about what's probably one of the least
obvious narratives in crypto that in my
view is inevitably going to blow up
sometime this cycle as it always did
historically and that narrative is ZK
and privacy we're also now entering a
new generation of privacy projects that
enable also compliant privacy which is a
whole new vertical that potentially
finally fills the gap between what
privacy should do which is empowering
the individual and on the other hand
what regulation allows in today's video
I want to walk you through some of the
early days of the Privacy industry the
OG of all privacy coins Monero and we're
also going to be talking about the new
generation of privacy projects like
alipo which is also our content partner
and our research partner and we've been
working on this video in collaboration
with them as well as some other
promising projects that are also in the
cosmos
[Music]
ecosystem I remember in 2018 I was at a
crypto conference in South Korea and
soul and at that conference I met
Ricardo spy AKA fluffy pony who is one
of the lead engineers at Monero and I
asked him why do you think that privacy
is going to have a future in the crypto
industry why do you think it's relevant
and his response was very simple but
very powerful and he just said that
privacy is a human right it's our right
to decide on what we want to share what
we want to show others what we want to
publish right it should not be in every
anyone's interest neither the government
nor other people to be able to see our
wealth right and in this era of
cryptocurrencies and blockchain
technology which is native to the
internet I think it's even more so
important to build technologies that
empower the people and give the power to
the people to decide what they want to
publicly share and what they want to
keep for themselves what they want to
keep private right and I think this is
something very important because privacy
most of the times is just you know
talked about in connection to any kind
of malicious activities but that's not
actually the Privacy that is going to be
big that's not actually the Privacy that
we're talking about also in today's
video right now if you have interacted
so far in the blockchain industry with
cryptocurrencies and all these coins
there is a 99% chance that your
transaction has been tracked and
recorded and is publicly viewable for
anyone in the world right that's just
this public by default kind of ecosystem
that we're currently in in the crypto
space which obviously makes it super
easy to audit and for any sort of tax
purposes and those kind of things but
also it makes you vulnerable right
because everyone can just see what you
do what you have um especially if you're
public figure right people can just um
yeah Trace down what you're doing on
chain right which also has downsides it
obviously also has upsides at the same
time but some people might just not want
to share their onchain activities
publicly right so why privacy is
important Number One Financial privacy
nobody wants their bank account and
financial activities or records to be
exposed to other people without consent
right and I think this is really a basic
human right number two business
operation Enterprises don't want
competitors to gain insights from their
onchain activity very very important
stuff number three we also talk here
about identity and personal data
protection right we're not only talking
about how much money you have like
people probably don't even care about
that right but what about your personal
sensitive information personal data
right this is also a very important
point because the transparent nature of
blockchains allow identifying patterns
of your usage and of your also person
ality of your own behavior right there's
even researchers that identify
individuals and where they live like the
actual physical location simply based on
their onchain activities on their
onchain transactions and also
blockchains just offer pseudonymity once
your identity is uncovered all your
transactions are traced back to the very
first day you started using crypto I
think those are very solid points to
make a case that privacy is an important
p pillar of what we're doing right also
kind of dates back to the roots of The
Cypher Punk movement the origins of
Bitcoin itself and all these kind of
things and although privacy projects
like tornado cach or Monero have been
hit hard by regulatory pressures right
we obviously know the story about a
tornado cach developer who is as as of
my understanding right now sitting in
jail we also have um a Monero XMR that
has been delisted from most centralized
exchanges so centralized platforms are
really under kind of regulatory scrutiny
here that only shows that privacy is
getting more and more important right
it's probably the most important that is
has ever been in our history now let's
talk about some of the OG projects
obviously Monero number one the OG king
of privacy coins was created in 2014 and
unlike the majority of other
cryptocurrencies which are based on
transparency or public by default Monera
offers a different approach by upholding
the ideals of anonymity similar to
bitcoin Monera relies on proof of work
mining so it's a p chain that achieves
distributed consensus and unlike other
competitors some of which aren't even
competitors because they aren't as
private as they claim to be but unlike
most comp competitors Monero is the only
major cryptocurrency in which every user
is anonymous by default in Monero
transactions are confidential and
untraceable by using a technology called
called ring signatures and stealth
addresses ring signatures basically hide
the sender identity by mixing their
signature with those of other network
participants while stealth addresses add
another lay of privacy by generating a
one-time address for each transaction
protecting both sender and receiver from
having their transactions linked to
other uh to their public addresses in
the manura system there's really no way
to track the sender the amount of XMR
they were sent or the receiver even the
sender won't be able to know how many
tokens the receiver has and this is a
very very powerful technology which is
why there's also this hardcore Monero
Community because they just
fundamentally believe in this principle
and that goes back to the story I told
about meeting fluffy pony um this is
really a basic human right now we also
have other contenders like dash for
example Dash was also launched in 2014
as a fork of Bitcoin with a mixing
service that makes it hard to detect the
receiver Dash transactions are unmixed
by default though and there was also
kind of reports that came out um by
chelis um which which basically said
that 99% of the transaction activity on
Dash as well as zcash which is another
kind of privacy Contender that was
launched in 2016 also as a Bitcoin fork
with a different hashing algorithm and
built in security protocols but both
Dash and zcash can be tracked down so
they're not as as private as it seems
and another downside of CC is that it
has very long transaction times around
20 minutes for transaction to reach
confirmation and besides the regulatory
pressure deal listings from centralized
exchanges and some of these privacy
coins not actually being as private as
they claim to be you also have the fact
that OG coins require transactions to be
made in their own native volatile tokens
plus they do not really have any sort of
smart contract capability to support
other tokens or decentralized
applications that's why now we're
looking into some of the recent kind of
newer generation of privacy projects and
some of the also upcoming ones right
there was actually a nice report here
from coo and a nice chart and an
overview um which basically uh shows
kind of the development of privacy coins
and privacy projects over the time and
it really shows that privacy coins have
lost 44% of their market share to
privacy blockchains since 2021 newer
projects like Oasis Network secret
Network and Alf Zero have shifted toward
building Next Generation privacy
blockchains with smart contract
capabilities and Regulatory
considerations that means that basically
we have a new generation of smart
contract platforms that enable privacy
by default while still being regulatory
compliant and accessible for external
auditing which is super important but
only based on the consent of the owner
of that private information that is
stored on that chain and pretty much all
of these newer generation privacy
projects uh are not only proof of stake
based networks but also use one of these
Technologies to ensure privacy ZK proves
trusted execution environments or
secured multi-part computation each of
these methods possesses different use
cases limitations and technical
specifications for example secret
Network and Oasis both use the cosmo
stack and trusted execution environments
this approach has low computation cost
however require specific Hardware to run
on and could leak data due to T
vulnerabilities most of the new chains
that are about to launch like namada
penumbra or even Alo use zero knowledge
proofs this method does not require
specific Hardware to run but it lacks
standardization and alfero which is now
mained for 2 years utilizes both the
proves but also NPC to ensure privacy
for its users and they then use also ZK
snarks for Speed and limited privacy and
NPC when users need stringent privacy
the alfer chain itself is built using
substrate which is basically native to
the padot and kusama ecosystem and their
consensus is the AL bft which is a proof
of State consensus they are not a par
chain on kusama or poka do they're
basically their Standalone um leo1
blockchain they're basically an chain
for compliant privacy while also being
super fast and having smart contract
capability the time of anality is
actually .9 seconds so subsecond
finality but of course we also know that
this is not enough for a cryptocurrency
project to be actually successful it
also requires having a lifely community
an Engaged and active Community right
actual contributors content creation it
needs to have adoption in terms of
developers actually building out
applications Integrations liquidity
right there's like literally 100
different things that a cryptocurrency
project needs to have in order to become
successful and I've been in touch now
with the alzero team for nearly a year
like literally at the depths of the bare
market and they've not only been
building throughout the bare Market but
I also think they're coming out of it
very strong right with an actively
engaged Community they also have an
ambassador program where people can
apply and become basically alzero
ambassadors they also partnered with
coino for their learn and earn platform
and they also got into the tech Stars
startup program so a lot of things that
they're pushing hard on that end and
also they have a lot of Enterprise
Partners aler is also modeled on a hub
and spoke model which allows blockchains
and businesses to interact with each
other in a trust minimized way
efficiently and cheaply while
maintaining their own private networks
so it's basically around also this
concept of sovereignty which really fits
into also what Cosmos does and how
Cosmos is architectured and also aler
focuses a lot on interruptibility right
I remember also the ear conversations I
had with them was also about eventually
someday integrating IBC Cosmos IBC to
basically also have full
interoperability with the cosmos
ecosystem we also have centu which was
pioneered by um Picasso Network that is
also an extension of IBC for substrate
based chains so I think there's some
synergies there as well and aler also
plans to offer modular privacy is it's
generally complex to build ZK powered
applications and with Al zero developers
will be able to integrate privacy within
their apps much simpler and I think this
is also a huge narrative like which they
can position themselves today is besides
the compliant privacy kind of category
to also focus on modular privacy and see
how alfero could basically uh offer
privacy as a service to other tax stxs
in the crypto industry right so I really
invite you to do your further due
diligence and your research from here
like I said Al zero is a Content partner
of us so you will hear a lot more about
them in the future also about different
use cases different applications that
are launching there that's it for today
I hope you enjoy the video I'll see you
guys in the next one stay safe and be
good
