Tyler DHOST
And on the NFT front, I guess we can go there.
Tyler DHOST
ZK Snarks, oh no. They're down 50% from their Dutch auction.
Tyler DHOST
They're at 0.7 ZK floor.
Tyler DHOST
So the FUD is affecting the Snarks.
Chris JourdanHOST
Uh, popping off big time.
Chris JourdanHOST
17-- I mean, there was a, it was a auction prop mechanic for ZK SNARKs, if you missed it.
Chris JourdanHOST
Over 30 million was sent in in the pre-sale.
Chris JourdanHOST
Put the clearing price at like 1.5. Do you call it ZEC? Zcash? ZEC? What, what do you-- Like, you know, y- y- with Bitcoin, we call it BTC or Bitcoin.
Chris JourdanHOST
Um, but for a while, like everyone was flooding to Ordinals for mints and they were popping off and people were making all kinds of money.
Chris JourdanHOST
I think we'll see a similar rollercoaster on Zcash.
Chris JourdanHOST
Zca- especially after, uh, ZK SNARKs raised 17 million with no roadmap, nothing, just art.
Chris JourdanHOST
Like I, I actually like the, I like the PFPs.
BChequeHOST
And finally, for a headline, a bit more on the degen side.
BChequeHOST
ZK Snarks raised $17.1 million in oversubscribed mint on Zcash.
BChequeHOST
So pretty exciting stuff across the board.
BChequeHOST
Yes, we're going to dive into a lot of the price action across the board.
Tyler DHOST
And then NFTs, market's so hot, even NFTs are catching headlines here.
Tyler DHOST
ZK Snarks raised $37 million in their public auction, which closed at a 1.5, Zeke.
Tyler DHOST
I personally whiffed on the auction.
Tyler DHOST
I only bid one.
11 MINS LATER
FaroukHOST
there's so much going on
Tyler DHOST
of course it looks stronger like narrative following price action a little bit but uh it's it's set up well
FaroukHOST
your zk snarks also it's powering that or what
Tyler DHOST
I mean, you needed to, you know, make a swap to get some Zik ready to bid, right? So, coins everywhere.
CraigHOST
[laughs]
GreenyHOST
Someone hit me, someone hit me up in my DMs about ZK SNARKs, and I was like, "What the hell is this?" Um, so they off-ramp through NEAR on Eth, and NEAR is private as well, so that makes me bullish on NEAR, bro.
GreenyHOST
If everyone...
GreenyHOST
It's like, uh, the intents and...
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
It was a complete redesign.
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
The key innovation was the use of zk-SNARKs, which stands for zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge.
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
These were zero-knowledge proofs that were small, a few hundred bytes, fast to verify, milliseconds, and expressive enough to prove complex statements about hidden data.
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
With zk-SNARKs, you can prove not just that you own a valid coin, but prove that an entire transaction is valid.
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
This isn't trivial.
Brendan KellyNARRATOR
It means that the system verifies that the transaction amounts are correct.
Katie TalatiGUEST
Oh, Starknet, Starknet.
Katie TalatiGUEST
And they all use like the different either ZKs or ZK-SNARKs to like, you know, shield and mask transactions.
Katie TalatiGUEST
And the reason also that like some of those privacy techs, in my opinion, are a little more interesting is that a lot of the zero knowledge stuff, it's not just that it works in a way where like you're not just like shielding transactions.
Katie TalatiGUEST
But you're able to shield transactions and then essentially like attest to, okay, this information is true.
