Kobe: It's definitely presenting the general population with the first real application where they actually want to verify whether something is real. Yeah, I think it also plays though on the ID front. You're going to need better ID and then the ZKPs along the way because that starting point, the thing that signs also needs to somehow be yours.

In this week’s episode, Anna sits down with Yi Sun, co-founder of Axiom. Yi was recently on the show to discuss ZK ML’s, however this time they take a closer look at the Axiom project and what it means to be a ZK coprocessor for Ethereum. During the interview they also explore what problems Axiom are trying to solve, how ZKPs are used to help bring historic data into smart contracts and what new use cases this architecture can support.
