Bart Preneel (KU Leuven), an expert in post-Snowden cryptography and anonymous credentials and a coordinator of the largest privacy and security research team in Europe, also joins Nym’s advisory board.
Prof. Kiayias highlights the importance of Nym’s mission and vision in reconsidering the privacy segment of the Web3 space:
