In 2023, I got laid off as the Head of Recruiting at a crypto project for being located in the US. It hit hard, but I'm still all in on my US crypto career and behind #standwithcrypto 🧵
zk + bitcoin 🤯. shoutout to the @citrea_xyz team for conceptualizing and executing this on @RiscZero's zkVM.
ZK + Bitcoin = ⚡ 🟠 🔒
The Bitcoin Renaissance is here and we’re proud to be the ‘ZK’ behind Bitcoin’s first ZK Rollup ✨
Addressing Bitcoin’s scaling challenges, while ensuring on-chain verifiability and data availability, has been the holy grail of Bitcoin development for nearly a decade. Using R0’s zkVM allowed the Citrea team to get to market dramatically faster compared to traditional, monolithic zero knowledge circuits.
Citrea was able to custom build a ZK-provable execution environment in a fraction of the time and utilize the existing Rust Ethereum ecosystem to supercharge their ZK development process.
Congrats to the @citrea_xyz team on an incredible achievement!
I'm thrilled to share that I've recently taken on a new adventure as the Principal Recruiter @RiscZero! 🎉 Here’s a glimpse into why I joined and what’s on the horizon 🧵 1/7
RISC Zero is pioneering general purpose zero-knowledge (ZK) virtual machine technology. Our mission aims to provide devs and infrastructure providers with innovative crypto tools for trustless, scalable, and decentralized computing: risczero.com/news/series-a 2/7

Fantastic read on how DeFi can 100x from here by @_blakewest.
"Clear use case, real utility, real value. It’s boring, but it works. If we all want DeFi to achieve society-transforming levels of growth, then we must follow this familiar path of fundamental, boring, useful innovation."
