Opacity Progress Report #1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_6kakucIrA

Watch the very first Progress Report by @CeresOPCT. In this Progress Report we’ll be looking back at what Opacity have accomplished over the past two months and what to expect in the upcoming weeks.

“While corporate players like IBM, Microsoft and Oracle are trying to expand their product portfolio to decentralized solutions, we cannot say to what extent they will pay respect to privacy. At the end of the day, only Opacity can guarantee full democratization of data, which constitutes the core mission of our company and is therefore rooted into our DNA.”
- Esther Katz, Marketing Lead at Opacity, spoke to Techbullion about the future of tech, threats of AI and privacy matters.
