In order to achieve true transaction privacy, it is not enough to encrypt or build ZK proofs for transaction bundles, as long as the underlying blockchain uses an account-based model. Aztec is building a ZKVM that superposes an UTXO model, so that balances are constantly updated as new, untraceable, log entries. The upcoming Aztec 3 aims to enable privacy-preserving smart contracts, using a hybrid, multi-layered rollup. This approach allows for both public and private smart contracts to be executed simultaneously.We were joined by Zac Williamson & Joe Andrews, to discuss the evolution of Aztec, from ZK Money to their upcoming privacy-preserving hybrid ZK rollup.Topics covered in this episode:The evolution of Aztec, from ZK money to Aztec 3How Aztec's ZKVM ensures privacy for Ethereum transactionsThe need for UTXO model for privacy-preserving encrypted databasesInteracting with public smart contracts in a private mannerTechnical roadmap and challenges faced along the wayHow Aztec differs from Mina protocolRecursive proofsEstimating gasMain-net sequencer decentralisationGoblin PlonkThe future of programmable privacyEpisode links:Zac Williamson on TwitterJoe Andrews on TwitterAztec on TwitterThis episode is hosted by Felix Lutsch.

So, here's what Alex and Mary Ann covered with some help from our dear friend Jacquie Melinek:WWDC in a nutshell: In case you missed it, Apple had a big event this week.

Yep, it's Cava, the fast-casual chain that, thanks to a dollop or two of venture capital money, we get to cover!All things SEC and Crypto: The SEC broke into its hammer closet so that it could go play whack-a-mole this week with crypto exchanges both foreign and domestic.Sequoia does to itself what regulators want to do to Google: What has three parts and is now competing with itself? Sequoia. Think of it like an inverse Google, if you will.How real estate will affect the climate crisis: It turns out that construction is not so good for the planet. And with a commercial real estate crisis brewing, can we add one to one and get five?Next week, Equity is on vacation!

Welcome to the FinTech Hunting Podcast, where we bring you the latest insights and innovations in the world of financial technology. In this episode, we have a special guest, Chad Karol, a technology evangelist and valuation expert who recently joined Nationwide Property and Appraisal Services as the Senior Vice President. Chad brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table, with 16 years of experience in the alternative valuation space and overseeing close to 2 million transactions. In our conversation, Chad discusses the challenges faced by the industry, such as the shortage of appraisers and the need for faster turnaround times. He highlights the benefits of alternative valuation models, particularly desktop appraisals, which allow appraisers to focus on analysis and valuation while data collectors gather property information. Chad emphasizes that these alternative models provide quicker turnaround times and lower costs and enable appraisers to increase their earnings by completing more volume from the comfort of their desks. We delve into Nationwide's new offering, the Pinnacle Desktop Appraisal, which combines local appraisers' expertise with a bifurcated process involving real estate professionals for data collection. This model ensures high-quality appraisals through two rounds of quality control checks. Chad also addresses lenders' concerns about adopting alternative valuation models, encouraging open discussions to explore the advantages and address regulatory challenges. As the market evolves, Chad envisions more lenders embracing alternative valuation products, especially with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac onboard. He foresees a future where these products, including the Pinnacle Desktop Appraisal, become the norm for home equity and fix-and-flip loans. If you're interested in learning more about the benefits of alternative valuation models and how they can transform the industry, don't miss this engaging and insightful episode with Chad Karol.

The goal is to slow down and annoy the #FinTech space so that it doesn't shine brighter than the FedNow. This way, there will be less competition when the FedNow #DigitalDollar is released.

For episode 71, we have Sergio Torres, Co-Founder & CEO at Alvva, a FinTech startup helping immigrants pay for their immigration applications! What's really interesting about Alvva is that it enables immigrants to pay for their immigration applications while also helping them build their credit at the same time, which is important because traditional financing options are often unavailable to immigrants. As for Sergio, he was born and grew up in San Diego, and spend his life going back and forth across the US / Mexico border. His father was born in the US, and his mother was born in Mexico, so he experienced many of the challenges immigrants face when moving to and settling in a new country. After a long career in the financial services industry, he married his professional experience with his personal family immigration experience to launch Alvva. So, here's what Sergio and I are going to be talking about: Sergio's personal immigration story from Mexico to the US How Sergio got into financial services and what he learned over 15 years in the industry How the idea for Alvva came about, and Sergio's first steps How Alvva works, where the company is today and where it's going Sergio's thoughts on how technology can help immigrants And more!

My guest this week has a genuine passion for building products, teams, and businesses. He has worked for some of the largest payment brands in our ecosystem and his focus is always on reinvention, which would explain why he, himself, holds 27 patents in the payment space. Convera our CEO Patrick Gauthier moved to the U.S. 30 years ago for what was supposed to be a three-year stint and, fortunately for us, and never looked back.You may not know, Convera (also previously called Western Union Business Solutions) is a cross-border payments company with a mission to make cross-border transactions easy so a variety of businesses with global aspirations can grow with confidence. And according to Patrick, confidence is the main ingredient for the success of their platform. Convera serves 200 countries and territories and supports more than 140 different currencies. They serve a variety of different industry segments, including higher education, nonprofit, import/export, travel, and financial institutions. And their two main offerings revolve around something called Spot Payments, which provides payments across currencies and across borders immediately, as well as various different options that help companies successfully analyze and manage their risk over time.Tune in this week to hear Patrick talk about his journey to CEO, including the one question he always asks himself when it comes to any new venture or project: “How can we meet the customer need differently for a better outcome?” I also talk about where he sees the industry growing in the next 10 years as it relates to several “megatrends” he specifies throughout the industry: Electronification, democratization, and the evolution of the increasingly complex regulatory framework.

To help us answer those questions, we've brought in a few expert tech investors. 7investing CEO Simon Erickson recently spoke with Deepwater Asset Management's Gene Munster and Doug Clinton, who have been investing in technology for decades. Deepwater is a global asset manager based in Minneapolis, MN. The three kicked off their conversation by discussing Deepwater's investing philosophy and vision. Gene explains that their firm likes to dive deep into three core areas of technology: AI, automation, and the Metaverse. They use those as a starting point, to further screen for the best-in-breed companies with persistent growth. And finally, they look for the select few which they have the most conviction in; which is something that can't be easily found or simply modeled in spreadsheets. Doug goes on to explain the "three buckets" of investing timeframes. Some investors think only in terms of quarterly earnings and others only in terms of long-term trends. But Deepwater prefers to be in the third bucket -- from 3 to 5 years -- where they can more measurably assess what will happen in the near-term future. It turns out that predicting what the world will look like a decade from now is incredibly difficult. Gene and Doug both then discuss the FinTech sector, which is quickly transitioning from bricks and mortar to digital. Brazil's NuBank, Block, and Apple could all be opportunities for investors, as they are gaining share but without having legacy operational costs. The group then discusses the macroeconomic climate. Gene points to several companies like Home Depot still reporting disappointing earnings, and that is leading to institutional investors being cautious. But bigger-picture, it's more important to find quality companies and to size into positions over time. Simon asks them about valuation, and they described their methodical process for determining a fair price. In the second segment, the three discuss several of Deepwater's larger positions, including Meta Platforms (Nasdaq: META),  CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD), ACV Auctions (Nasdaq: ACVA), and Everbridge (Nasdaq: EVBG). They conclude with a fun "lightning round", where Simon spots them up with questions about AI and the market's largest technology companies. Publicly-traded companies mentioned in this podcast include Meta Platforms, CrowdStrike, Everbridge, ACV Auctions, NuHoldings, Block, Amazon, and Apple. 7investing's advisors and/or its guests may have positions in the companies that are mentioned.

Entering college, Laura Bright was drawn to both French and math, two subjects she exceled in in high school. French remained something that came easily and she took for fun. But the math she took in college didn't look like high school math and she wondered if that was the right path. As the department was combined with computer science, she took the advice of a female researcher and tried her hand at computer science.She was drawn the more technical sides of her field but never considered herself a programmer. She thought she wanted to teach and make computer science come alive for other learners so pursued the PhD. She realized, though, that she wanted more hands on opportunities. Going into industry, she did more applied work and ultimately made a discovery about herself.In this episode, find out from Laura how taking the opportunity just outside your comfort zone often leads to insights about who you are… on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley. About This Episode's GuestLaura Bright is a software engineer who has spent time in academia and industry and who currently serves as a Senior Software Engineer at Finastra, a fintech company based in Portland, Oregon. For another story about graduate school leading to personal insights, listen to our episode with Oliver Will.Find more episodes at https://roadstakenshow.comExecutive Producer/Host: Leslie Jennings RowleyMusic: Brian BurrowsEmail the show at RoadsTakenShow@gmail.com
