Nexus Laboratories, Inc. is a virtual machine—software that emulates a physical computer—that wants to bolster trust in the internet. To do so, Nexus is betting on a species of cryptography called “zero-knowledge proofs,” or zk-proofs, which allow one party to prove to another that a piece of data is true, without conveying the underlying data. A simple analogy: a drivers’ license scanner that reveals someone is 21 without disclosing their name or address. Nexus believes zk-proofs are powerful and wants to make them accessible to any developer.
