3/ The Takeaway
"The math is publicly auditable. The inputs stay private."

The potential is massive. Non-invasive credit checks for loans or rentals. Ensuring agents act only on verified data. Verified outcomes for smart contract settlement.

Privacy and verifiability don't have to be a tradeoff.

[Dartmouth Blockchain 🌲 @Voxchain]

1/ We had the team from @HorizenLabs come speak to Dartmouth Blockchain this week.

From verifiable gaming → trustless prediction markets → privacy-preserving finance.

Here's what they showed us:

2/ Their product @ZKVProtocol is modular infrastructure built around one idea: "verify once, settle everywhere."

Proof verification costs: $50 → $5 → fraction of a penny.

Native support for SNARKs & STARKs across all chains.

Use cases live today: provably fair gaming, AI inference verification, on-chain prediction markets, and ZK-TLS for private financial credentials.

ZK proofs make trust programmable while preserving privacy.

3/ Career advice from someone doing it at the highest level:

"Be a specialist within a generalist role. 90% of the work is broad, but become the go-to person for one specific question, and you become irreplaceable."

The firms building at the intersection of TradFi × crypto are where the next decade of opportunity lives 👀

Thanks Wendy for the incredible talk 🙏

[Dartmouth Blockchain 🌲 @Voxchain]

1/ We had Wendy Hu, VP of Digital Assets at @BlackRock and Dartmouth '21, come speak to DBSS this week

From a senior thesis on the political economy of innovation in China → Galaxy Digital → leading BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF launch. Here's what she shared

[Dartmouth Blockchain 🌲 @Voxchain]

2/ BlackRock's digital assets strategy runs on 3 pillars:

- Cryptoassets: IBIT & ETHA bring Bitcoin/ETH exposure to traditional investors who want the return without the complexity

- Tokenization: BUIDL lets crypto-native firms earn Treasury rates while keeping capital on blockchain rails

- Stablecoins: reserve management and liquidity for digital cash

James's advice for breaking into crypto GTM:

- Technical knowledge is a major edge. Even non-engineers must live in the docs.

- Strong written and verbal communication skills cannot be overstated especially when interfacing with institutional partners

- Prep obsessively. Work ethic and learning speed are what get you hired.

Huge thanks to James for the time. This is exactly the kind of industry access we're here to build.

[Dartmouth Blockchain 🌲 @Voxchain]

1/ We brought in @James__Friel , Head of GTM at Plume Network, to talk RWA tokenization with Dartmouth Blockchain this week.

His path: Trinity → Bloomberg (6 yrs) → Tuck MBA → first commercial hire at Axelar → now leading GTM at one of the hottest RWA L1s in crypto.

Here's what we learned about taking institutions on-chain

[Dartmouth Blockchain 🌲 @Voxchain]

The RWA playbook is not what you think. James broke it down:

- Retail cares about APY. Institutions need specific allocation strategies and full transparency.

- Warm intros through investors and founders are everything > cold intros.

- Target funds that are already tokenized with high AUM, not ones struggling off-chain.

Great evening at @Dartmouth with @Voxchain.

Really impressed by how thoughtful the students were about stablecoins, infrastructure, and where global finance is headed.
