ZK proofs to be embedded in EU law! The European Parliament has officially included use of zero-knowledge proofs in its negotiation positions for the trilogues with the Council on the regulation of digital identity & related 🇪🇺 apps #privacy #digitalidentity #ZeroKnowledgeProofs 
Unless the Council firmly objects, zero-knowledge proofs will be in EU law on digital identity & future EU apps, giving individuals greater control over their personal data, increasing trust in digital transactions, & facilitating cross-border interoperability of EU eID solutions
Zero-knowledge proofs allow the validation of a given statement based on electronic attestation of attributes held in a user's digital identity wallet without revealing any data related to those attributes to the relying party. #cryptography #digitalprivacy
This EP position would require the development of interoperable and standardized interfaces and protocols for zero-knowledge proofs, enhancing the usability, accessibility, and security of digital identity solutions in the EU. #interoperability
The proposal also promotes the adoption of privacy-enhancing technologies in the EU, contributing to the development of a more secure and privacy-respecting digital environment. #digitaltrust #privacybydesign @JerkovicRomana
The European Digital Identity Wallets will provide common interface protocols and interfaces for zero-knowledge proof inferred from person identification data or electronic attestation of attributes. #eID #digitalidentity #privacyenhancingtechnologies @vonpecka
The proposal would facilitate the emergence of new business models and opportunities in the digital economy, as companies develop innovative products and services that rely on zero-knowledge proofs and eID solutions. #digitalinnovation @AlinMituta
The European Digital Identity Wallet should allow for verification of claims inferred from personal data identification or attestation of attributes without having to provide the source data, preserving the privacy of the user. #digitalprivacy #privacyrespecting
The EU's decision to incorporate zero-knowledge proofs into its laws for digital identity could also have significant implications for the use of ZKP in blockchain and crypto. #blockchain #cryptocurrency #digitalidentity #privacyenhancingtechnologies
