In the world of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technologies are becoming increasingly popular. Kakarot zkEVM, named after the Dragonball Z manga character Kakarot, aims to be a leader in using ZK technologies to improve the scalability and privacy of Ethereum Virtual Machines (EVM). In an interview with Metaverse Post, Kakarot zkEVM co-founders Danilo Kim and Elias Tazartes spoke about their path in the crypto industry and the importance of ZK technologies for the blockchain. 🚀

The company started as an open source project at a hackathon and is now growing at a rapid pace. The success of Kakarot zkEVM is attributed to the strong Starknet community and the use of the Cairo programming language for ZK. This makes the project code more accessible and understandable for developers without deep knowledge of cryptography. 🧑‍💻

Danilo and Elias see two main applications for ZK technologies: privacy and scalability. They expect significant changes in the data market, where users will own their data and descentralizovat ownership of the data. In the area of ​​scalability, ZK technologies can enable rapid interaction and collaboration between different blockchain ecosystems. 🌐

In conclusion, the co-founders of Kakarot zkEVM believe that their strategic approach is well positioned for long-term success and that ZK technology is entering a new era of development.
