the investment department of the risk investment company Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) focused on cryptocurrencies pointed out that modern encryption technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs can protect user privacy while enabling law enforcement agencies to effectively combat criminals. In a report released on Tuesday, Aiden Slaven, policy partner of a16z Crypto, and regulatory legal advisor David Sverdlov stated that zero-knowledge proofs can verify the authenticity of data without revealing any detailed private information. They believe that this technology, by showing the source of funds without disclosing private information, has the "greatest potential".
