Despite a whirlwind week at Token2049, we're energized by the growing interest in our FATF- and MiCA-compliant identity solutions. The conversations with new partners and industry leaders reinforced the need for decentralized, private-by-design, and globally compliant identity verification. Alex Scheer, our Founder & CEO shared his insights from the event:

"One of the highlights of our TOKEN2049 experience was connecting with numerous RWA and DeFi projects. It's clear that these sectors are rapidly evolving and seeking robust, compliant identity solutions. We're excited about the potential collaborations that emerged from these discussions. Our zero-knowledge identity layer is perfectly positioned to address the unique challenges faced by RWA tokenization and DeFi protocols, especially in terms of regulatory compliance and user privacy. This aligns perfectly with our mission to build a more accessible and secure Web3 ecosystem."

We're excited to continue developing zkMe Network as the premier zk-identity layer powering Web3, with a strong focus on supporting the growth of RWA and DeFi projects.
