Ahead of Hack Seasons, we sat down with Vince Young, CEO of zkLink, to discuss the blockchain industry. Vince shared valuable insights into ZK technology, the current state of crypto mining, and zkLink's innovative solutions for blockchain scalability and interoperability. 🚀

Vince first encountered cryptocurrency in 2016 at a local meetup in Shanghai. In 2019, he became convinced of the long-term potential of blockchain technology and decided to join the industry. 🌐

In 2020, during the "Summer of DeFi", Vince began exploring DeFi applications such as Uniswap, AAVE, Compound, Curve and Sushi. He was amazed at the kinds of applications being created based on blockchain technology, not limited to just cryptocurrency mining and trading.

Vince believes that ZK technology could be a real breakthrough not only for scalability, but also for privacy and interoperability between different chains. He is confident that ZK technology will come back onto the scene and be used in AI and machine learning.
