    Zk-SNARKs: What are they and how can they protect your privacy?: A talk with Kaleido

    During this weekend’s Ethereal Summit in Tel Aviv, Modern Consensus grabbed some time with enterprise blockchain solution startup Kaleido’s founders to talk about this awkwardly named technology

    Blockchain solution Kaleido, which is backed by ConsenSys, is working on a way to make privacy more of a reality in the enterprise blockchain sphere. While Kaleido made even the traditional financial news headlines last May for its collaboration with Amazon Web Services, the startup’s recent partnership with privacy tech firm QEDIT for zero-knowledge proofs implementation is a decidedly less-recognized name. Modern Consensus spoke with Kaleido’s co-founders, CEO Steve Cervency and COO Sophia Lopez, on this deep tech topic.
