There's a lot of cool privacy stuff you can do with zero-knowledge tech (not necessarily blockchain) but the biggest problem is that companies can just... not adopt that tech because they'd make less money.

i see. that's a game theory lens.

while it probably makes sense for certain consumer data companies, do you think about cases where poor data security/privacy actually harms the company? eg: when sensitive company data gets leaked during third-party interactions?

Then you get into the fact that the tech is really complex and slow so the cost doesn't offset the benefits.

[aryxns]

well, bringing the cost down is probably just a matter of time, isn't it?

what i think is more important is finding form factors of using zK that make sense to enterprises. from outgoing api calls to file sharing, the scope of vulnerabilities is extremely large.
