From our previous article, we talked on PrivacyIN event and ways to register. While the registration timeline was brief, quite the number of individuals showed interest. This was extensively based on the course outline LatticeX Foundation planned on reviewing over the course of the event, alongside learned individuals who will be taking it.
We gave a brief glimpse of what qualified users will engage in if accepted. Happy to see the registration was successful and all qualified users has been contacted, this was made public by LatticeX Foundation recent tweet which read
The registration for PrivacyIN’s first ZK Camp has ended. Thanks for your participation. ZK Camp is subject to small class sizes, and we have received far more applications than expected. Those who cannot attend online courses can have access to the offline training session.
You can read about the tweet from the official handle here https://twitter.com/LatticeX_SGP/status/1545629441505669127?t=mMTPZDj-SLyh9V7xlC5Fsw&s=19
From the planned course outline, a detailed and extensive lecture would be done on privacy-preserving technologies to promote the innovation and implementation of ZK (Zero-Knowledge Proof), MPC (Multi-Party Computation), and FHE (Fully Homomorphic Encryption) in the field of Web 3.
From our everyday routine, privacy is no longer regarded due to the various social media available and majority pays no details or gives no account to how their privacy is being shared, take for example popular social media are known to have millions of users data or rather billions handled in a centralized medium, with just the right knowledge one can easily map out a specific individual daily routine and activities, from when they wake up, take their breakfast, go for a walk, e.t.c. These are all uploaded by this individual unknowingly to who is watching and monitoring their social life, which in turn makes it easy to predict their routes and routines which can then be sold to individuals with good or bad intentions without their prior knowledge. The PrivacyIN course with the help of LatticeX Foundation will teach individuals ways to best understand the tech behind privacy, how to implement it into Web 3 and if possible a means to monetize it.
The PrivacyIN course will be carried out via technical training, research community and incubate innovative projects, with a focus on modern cryptography technology. This would help create an open community for extensive knowledge distribution on privacy and ways to tackle problems by sharing of different informations..
The course covers the following lectures:
i. Basics of ZK Cryptography & Research Overview
ii. Basic Principles of the Classic ZK Protocol (Groth16 Plonk Stark)
iii.Introduction to the Application of ZK Circuits (L2/ZKEVM, ZK privacy-preserving circuits)
iv. ZK Hands-on
v. Submission and Presentation of Graduation Project
As discussed earlier, the lecture will be handled by learned individuals with years of experience on various fields round privacy and Zero-Knowledge Proof from July 8 to August 12 (1lecture /week).
Once again, i say congrats to all qualified and eligible individuals, hoping to see you perform/contribute positively upon the end of this course.
