Powering the Potential of Programmable Privacy: Midnight Roadmap

Unshielded: A Blockchain & Data Podcast

In this episode of Unshielded: A Blockchain & Data Podcast by Midnight, host Jason Schober is joined by Bob Blessing-Hartley, CTO of Shielded Technologies, to discuss how Midnight solves the blockchain privacy trilemma and what’s coming in the near-term roadmap.

What You’ll Learn:

• How the dual state ledger architecture enables privacy and compliance simultaneously
• Why "privacy by default" is easier than bolting security on later
• The Midnight roadmap phases at a glance
• Why cross-chain smart contracts unlock multi-step business processes
  

Bob Blessing-Hartley is the CTO of Shielded Technologies, leading the engineering efforts behind the Midnight blockchain protocol. With over a decade of experience in blockchain architecture and privacy solutions, Bob brings deep expertise in protocol design, consensus mechanisms, and cryptographic implementations. He joined Midnight roughly eighteen months ago after evaluating the project's unique approach to embedding privacy at the protocol layer rather than as an afterthought.
