In this episode, we spoke with Bobbin Threadbare, co-founder of Miden, about designing a new blockchain protocol built from the ground up around client-side proving. Main topics we discussed:

- The vision behind Miden: building a blockchain assuming ZK is a native primitive

- Why EVM and Solidity fall short for true client-side proving

- How Miden’s actor model blends accounts and UTXOs for privacy and modularity

- The trade-offs in launching as a centralized L2 before full decentralization

- Why client-side proving matters — and what it actually looks like on mobile today

- Privacy as a design principle: accounts, nodes, and nullifiers in Miden
