a16z Crypto investor: ZK technology is severely undervalued
ChainCatcher news, a16z Crypto investor Guy Wuollet stated on X that ZK technology is severely underestimated.Guy Wuollet explored the immense potential of ZK in cryptocurrency and developer tools. By drawing an analogy to the success of the iPhone, he pointed out that ZK technology is expected to bring about a series of innovative applications. He mentioned that the success of the iPhone was due to the combination of a programmable mobile computer, GPS, and a high-quality camera, which gave rise to applications like Instagram and Uber. Similarly, ZK technology, especially zkVMs (such as Jolt), could bring about similar revolutionary changes. He believes that DeFi protocols should adopt risk modeling in ZK and use more complex pricing functions.In addition, blockchain and ZK proofs can enable people to have censorship-resistant AI companions and be used to prove simple machine learning models. Wuollet concluded that ZK technology can be used to build more complex DeFi protocols, censorship-resistant AI companions, or on-chain machine learning, calling on developers to pay attention to this emerging field.
