Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we spoke with Bobbin Threadbare, co-founder of Miden, about designing a new blockchain protocol built from the ground up around client-side proving. Main topics we discussed:- The vision behind Miden: building a blockchain assuming ZK is a native primitive- Why EVM and Solidity fall short for true client-side proving- How Miden’s actor model blends accounts and UTXOs for privacy and modularity- The trade-offs in launching as a centralized L2 before full decentralization- Why client-side proving matters — and what it actually looks like on mobile today- Privacy as a design principle: accounts, nodes, and nullifiers in MidenLinksMiden's Website: https://miden.xyz/Miden's Twitter/X: https://x.com/0xMidenBobbin's Twitter/X: https://x.com/bobbinthYouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@ingo_zk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GitHub: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://github.com/ingonyama-zk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/ingonyama⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ingonyama.com/career⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
