This past week, Horizen Labs CEO @robviglione was in Washington, D.C. with members of the @BlockchainAssn, meeting with U.S. policymakers to discuss the future of privacy technology and its applications across commerce and defense. 🧵 A look at what we’re advocating for 👇

As the builders behind @horizenglobal and @ZKVProtocol, we believe that privacy and verifiability are essential to a secure and innovative digital economy. @robviglione joined other industry leaders to help educate Congress on how zero-knowledge cryptography can strengthen both consumer protection and national resilience.

From payment security to data integrity, ZK and privacy technologies have real-world implications across industries, not just within crypto. These discussions help ensure U.S. policymakers understand how this innovation can drive economic competitiveness and digital defense in the years ahead.

At Horizen Labs, we have always supported responsible innovation. From building one of the earliest privacy-focused blockchains to advancing verifiable systems that prove integrity without exposing sensitive data, our goal remains the same: enable trust through technology.

We are proud to stand alongside the @BlockchainAssn and our fellow members @AleoHQ, @CESS_Storage, @TheDRC_, @ElectricCoinCo, @injective Foundation, @the_matter_labs, and @union_build in bringing clarity, education, and collaboration to Capitol Hill. The future of privacy, trust, and verifiable technology depends on open dialogue and shared understanding.
