Today, Sismo returned funds to its investors.
We shipped fast, solved hard problems and built a great community. Yet, our pace was unsustainable, we sprinted a marathon.
I'm proud of the battle we fought and the way we did it, with full engagement and passion.

Is it possible to obtain the complete ranking list?

Wrote my first anonymous message on zk-whiteboard.xyz gated to ENS and Gitcoin passport owners 👀
That was really fun, 👏 @0xMartinGbz

Who has already deployed Reth on AWS?
Do we have insights into performance given the block storage latency issues in the cloud?

We just deployed on Base, bringing zk proofs to the onchain summer 🟡🎭
Builders, let users aggregate and selectively disclose their identity to your contract.
Ready to support the 100 builders program with @withBackdrop, @seedclub and @BuildOnBase!

2 years ago, @leo21_eth coined the term « reputationomics » when we were thinking about what the next bull run should look like.
If leveraging your reputation onchain becomes a thing the need for private aggregation of personal data becomes obvious and pressing.
Let’s see!

We're stoked to announce @Sismo_eth will be joining us as a sponsor for 100 Builders!
Sismo is at the cutting edge of ZK and privacy, and they have been long supporters of open tech.
With @ArtizenFund and our own fund that brings the prizes to $25K, with more to come soon!
This is sick honestly. 3 layers of recursion that allows parallelization and best tradeoff from each proof system @SuccinctLabs

First time that I feel like Sismo is starting to deliver on its promise. Sismo Connect is now live and is beginning to be understood.
Up to us to make it the most powerful and delightful tool for all devs to fully leverage reputation and identity in their apps!
What a weekend in Paris! 🇫🇷
965 hackers from 67 countries joined the biggest European @EthGlobal hackathon ever.
🎭 36 teams hacked on Sismo
😎 4/13 finalists used advanced features of Sismo Connect
👏 8 bounty winners
Take a look at our winners 👇

Judging at @ethglobal Paris was inspiring. Some themes I saw:
- tons of zk proofs (e.g. privacy, scaling, authentication with @Sismo_eth)
- first time I saw a lot of crypto x AI overlap at a hackathon (e.g. generative art, detecting fakes)
- lots of L2 usage for cheaper/faster txns (so cool we are at this point!)
- default storage with @IPFS
- interest in @worldnetwork for unique digital identity
- interest in wallet comms (e.g. @xmtp_, comms protocol aggregator)
- almost every team I met was from a different country
(Note: I'm an investor in @Sismo_eth @xmtp)

What do I think about biometric proof of personhood?

Wow the quality of hacks has 10xed, Sismo not just used as a privacy layer but as a powerful data aggregation tool!
30 hacks:
Tinder UX using financial and social data
Undercollaterized loans
Social connections
Chats for DAO participants
Bringing reputation onchain
🔥
What about using docs.celo.org/protocol/ident… from @kobigurk ? Can it be a sustainable solution?

One good way is to leverage ownership of data + selective disclosure via ZKPs.
Build apps that finally dare to do cross social graph experiences, safely.
Connect things you could not without privacy.
Use social, financial and professional graphs into dating apps for instance.
