Buenos Aires Leverages Zero-Knowledge Proofs: A Step Towards Confidential Data Handling As Buenos Aires adopts zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to protect residents’ private information, this marks one of the first instances where a government uses ZKPs in place of sensitive details. This shift offers a glimpse into how institutions could reduce unnecessary data exposure across various sectors—including finance, healthcare, e-commerce, and legal industries. At Panther Protocol, we are developing infrastructure that will allow users to prove necessary information without revealing underlying data. Over time, ZKPs will likely become a standard for users who want to retain control over their information—whether or not bad actors are involved. We believe Panther will be well-positioned to offer confidential public blockchain infrastructure for private DeFi transactions, balancing the need for privacy with compliance requirements. This step from Buenos Aires is just the beginning, and we’re excited to see privacy-preserving technologies becoming part of essential infrastructure. From decentralized finance to public services, the future of privacy is about keeping personal information confidential. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/g-Uu_vDy #PantherProtocol #DeFi #ZKP

We’re thrilled to announce Stage 8 of Panther’s testnet, introducing major updates that significantly enhance efficiency, scalability and compliance tools. This stage features streamlined UTXO management, allowing for smoother transactions, while the introduction of Diamon Proxy architecture solves Ethereum’s contract size limits and improves scalability. Additionally, the Taxi Ring Buffer has been implemented for more efficient data management, and a crucial new compliance tool—user blacklisting—empowers Zone Managers to keep bad actors off their platforms. We want to extend a huge thank you to our incredible community of over 3,500 testnet users for their dedication and invaluable feedback. Your support has been essential in helping us refine and improve the protocol! Want to be part of this journey? Sign up for Panther’s testnet today and experience cutting-edge privacy tech firsthand.

🔒 Defending Against Dusting Attacks in DeFi A dusting attack is a sneaky tactic where attackers send small amounts of cryptocurrency (dust) to a wallet in order to track its transaction patterns and potentially uncover the wallet owner’s identity. In an industry built on transparency, dusting attacks can exploit that visibility and compromise your privacy. Panther Protocol is building privacy-preserving infrastructure that will protect users from dusting attacks. By transacting within Panther’s Shielded Pool, users will ensure that dust cannot be traced or reveal any personal information. The future of DeFi is private and secure, and Panther is at the forefront of that movement. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ecQS-Nfd #DeFiPrivacy #BlockchainSecurity #PantherProtocol #ZKP

Alessandro Benigni thank you for sharing!!! The increasing amount of analytical materials on the topic of ZK (Zero-Knowledge) is a clear indicator that privacy-preserving products and the ZK industry, in general, are becoming more mainstream. This reflects the growing demand for such technologies and solutions, as well as the emergence of real-world applications that allow users to experience the benefits of privacy in the best sense of the word. Panther Protocol's solutions are fully compliance-based and provide users with the necessary tools to operate strictly within the law — something we believe is critically important for both retail and institutional users. The voices of institutional users, in particular, have been heard and taken into account as we prepare for the upcoming launch of the production version of the protocol. Exciting times ahead! Stay tuned with ZK industry! Stay tuned with Panther Protocol
