Miguel de Vega is the Chief Scientific Officer at Nillion. In this episode, we discuss the potential for what's known as "humanity's first blind computer" and its role to play alongside AI and crypto. Miguel unpacks how Nillion addresses the challenges of handling high value data, by leveraging privacy enhancing technologies (PETs) to enable users to securely store data on a peer-to-peer network, and allow for computations to be executed on the masked data, without the traditional need to decrypt data ahead of computation. We review a variety of Web3 and Web2 use cases unlocked by Nillion for massive emerging markets such as decentralized AI, plus why Nillion will soon launch its own tokenized incentives. ------ 🔗 Essential Show Links 🔗 ► Edge Newsletter: https://the-edge.xyz ► Youtube: https://youtube.com/@defidad ► Apple: https://tinyurl.com/edgepod ► Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/edgepodspotify ► Linktree: https://linktr.ee/edge_pod ► Follow DeFi Dad: https://x.com/DeFi_Dad ► Follow Nomatic: https://x.com/Nomaticcap ► Learn DeFi: http://defidad.com/ ------ The Edge Podcast Sponsor Resources 🔮 PYTH NETWORK | SMARTER DATA FOR SMARTER CONTRACTS ⏳ HOURGLASS | LEVERAGED AIRDROP FARMING AND BOOSTED POINTS 📈 iYIELD | YOUR FINANCIAL PICTURE, SIMPLIFIED 🧪 MANTLE | START YOUR RESTAKING JOURNEY TODAY WITH CMETH 🐡 PUFFER UNIFI | A BASED ROLLUP TO ETHEREUM WITH NATIVE YIELDS 🌔 MOONWELL | THE LEADING LENDING AND BORROWING APP ON BASE ⚙️ GEARBOX PROTOCOL | ONCHAIN LENDING REIMAGINED 🐐 GOAT NETWORK | A BITCOIN L2 TO EARN WITH BTC & DOGE ------ Timestamps 0:00 - Intro 4:11 - Background 6:31 - What is humanity’s first blind computer? 8:50 - Web3 use cases 11:03 - Web2 use cases 14:46 - How Nillion fixes issues like the Lastpass hack 17:33 - How will Nillion marry different privacy-enhancing tech? 21:52 - Mantle ad 22:30 - Target users for Nillion 24:19 - What tokenized incentives drive Nillion network? 26:48 - How do you bootstrap Nillion? 28:48 - Moonwell and GOAT Network ad 29:56 - How Nillion works with decentralized AI 33:33 - Nillion Mainnet coming + partners 36:54 - Web2 partners and competitors 40:34 - Closing ------ 🔗 Guest Links 🔗 ► Nillion website: https://nillion.com/ ► Nillion on X/Twitter: https://x.com/nillionnetwork ► Miguel on X/Twitter: https://x.com/miguel_de_vega ------ If you're a DeFi/Web3 builder, contact our team at: https://fourthrevolution.capital/ All opinions expressed by hosts and podcast guests are solely their own opinions and not necessarily those of Fourth Revolution Capital.
