ETHafrique Workshops : Fundamentals of Zero-Knowledge proofs
Curious about the buzz around zero-knowledge proofs but not sure where to start? Join us for an engaging session on the fundamentals of zero-knowledge proofs, designed for anyone interested in cryptography, blockchain, or privacy-enhancing technologies. Whether you’re a student, developer, or just a tech enthusiast, this event will help you build a solid foundation in one of the most exciting areas of modern cryptography.
Led by AGBETSIASSI KODJO LABORE, this session will break down the core concepts behind zero-knowledge proofs in a clear and approachable way. We’ll explore what zero-knowledge proofs are, why they matter, and how they’re being used to solve real-world problems—from securing transactions on blockchains to protecting sensitive data without revealing it.
You’ll get a chance to see practical examples and learn about the different types of zero-knowledge proofs, such as zk-SNARKs and zk-STARKs. We’ll also discuss some of the challenges and limitations of these technologies, as well as their potential to shape the future of digital privacy and security.
There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion, so bring your curiosity and any burning questions you have. The event location will be announced soon, so stay tuned for updates. We look forward to seeing you there and diving into the fascinating world of zero-knowledge proofs together!
