The chapter delves into the decision-making process behind choosing Venmo for technology integration, discussing the importance of localized payment systems and the integration of UPI. It explores the web to payment flow model alongside web 3.0 concepts, comparing decentralization and ZK proof usage. The conversation also touches on sustainability concerns, ZK data primitives, and the application of zero-knowledge proofs for cross-chain interactions in the fintech landscape.
In this week’s episode, Anna and Tarun interview Brian Weickmann & Richard Liang from the ZKP2P project. They cover the opportunities and challenges of building ZK applications with the current tools available, as well as revisit the topic of ZK Email and explore how this lies at the heart of the current version of ZKP2P. They also discuss the goals of ZKP2P, what’s happening under the hood, the types of experiments and initiatives the project is running, how a user can already use the existing product and the opportunities systems like ZKP2P open up.
