“Represent traits about yourself… without revealing your underlying data.”
Evin McMullen, Co-Founder & CEO of Billions Network, said that at ETHDenver 2026 while discussing the next phase of digital identity.
Her argument: Ethereum’s long-term value may extend far beyond trading. Zero-knowledge proofs and client-side cryptography allow users to prove attributes — like age eligibility — without exposing full personal records.
The structural takeaway:
✅ Identity verification without centralized data storage
✅ Zero-knowledge proofs enabling selective disclosure
✅ Governments exploring ZK-based credential systems
✅ Ethereum positioning itself as identity infrastructure
If cryptographic credentials work at scale, identity may shift from databases to proofs.
