## Q1: Let's start with a brief introduction, what’s your background before crypto? Why join crypto & Nulink?
Before venturing into the crypto space, my background was in fashion and marketing. My journey in marketing helped me understand the importance of innovation and protecting valuable digital assets, which sparked my interest in blockchain technology.

The shift to crypto was driven by my belief in its potential to transform how we handle data privacy and security. Joining NuLink was an exciting step, as it perfectly merged my expertise in marketing with my passion for cutting-edge technology, focusing on enhancing data safety in the decentralized world.
## Q2: For people who are not familiar with Nulink, can you explain a bit about this project?
NuLink is dedicated to providing advanced security solutions for decentralized applications (dApps). We leverage cutting-edge technologies like Proxy Re-Encryption, Zero-Knowledge Proofs, and Fully Homomorphic Encryption to ensure that data remains private and secure across any blockchain network.

Our project is proudly backed by prominent investors such as DWF Labs, Poolz, and ViaBTC. These partnerships not only bring financial backing but also strategic guidance and access to an extensive network in the crypto ecosystem. The support from these industry leaders underscores the potential and trust in our technology and mission. Their expertise helps us navigate the complex landscape of blockchain innovation, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of privacy and security domains. This backing is crucial as we continue to expand our capabilities and aim to revolutionize how privacy is maintained on digital platforms.

## Q3: Nulink has been around for over 3 years. Anything changed for the team in terms of underlying technology and vision?
Over the past year, there have been significant advancements in our underlying technology, particularly in enhancing the efficiency and scalability of our encryption methods. Our vision has evolved to not only focus on privacy but also on making our technology accessible to a broader range of applications in different industries.

We are actively developing our products. Up to now, we have completed the second phase of the Horus2.0 testnet and are conducting a testnet incentive activity on the COINLIST platform, with over 100,000 people participating in the entire testnet incentive activity. The number of addresses on the testnet exceeds 600,000. At the same time, we are actively deploying on major public blockchains, and currently support <a href="/price/bnb-bnb" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BNB</a> Chain, X Layer, Conflux, and <a href="/price/polygon-matic" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Polygon</a>. Our cross-chain functionality has also just launched, and those interested can go to the CoinList event page to experience it. The event is ongoing.

## Q4: Encrypted files uploaded or shared through Nulink Agent have surpassed 2 million, what does this number mean? Did Nulink achieve its ultimate goal?
As of now, the latest data shows that the real number of file interactions via NuLink Agent has exceeded 5 million times, with each interaction representing a user uploading an encrypted file or sharing an encrypted file. Encrypting and authorizing data is our core business logic. We are also striving to serve more ecosystems and users.

Surpassing 2 million encrypted files is a significant milestone that underscores the trust and reliance users place on NuLink. While we are thrilled with this achievement, it represents a stepping stone towards our ultimate goal of setting a new standard for data security in blockchain space.

## Q5: ZK technology has been a hot topic for a while in the last year, but not many people are talking about it now. Why do you think this is happening? Does this affect Nulink’s go to market strategy?
Zero-Knowledge Proofs are not just a hot topic; they are a fundamental algorithm that always has applicable use cases. As a pioneer in the field of data encryption, NuLink perfectly utilizes Zero-Knowledge Proofs to address the usability issues between data encryption and sharing, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of data for those who wish to access it, even when it is encrypted.

Technologically, we not only use Zero-Knowledge Proofs but also employ PRE (Proxy Re-Encryption), ABE (Attribute-Based Encryption), FHE (Fully Homomorphic Encryption), and other significant cryptographic schemes. This makes NuLink a comprehensive and closed-loop data security encryption solution.

The buzz around ZK technology has quieted as the novelty has worn off, but the work behind the scenes has deepened. This maturation phase is critical for refining technology. For NuLink, this doesn’t change our strategy but reinforces our commitment to being at the forefront of ZK application.
