In this episode, Jax Dwyer speaks with Martin Martinius, Ecosystem Growth Manager at Orochi Network, a leading R&D company focused on zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technology and decentralized infrastructure.

We explore how Orochi is building ZK-powered databases, verifiable data layers, and scalable solutions for DeFi, AI, gaming, and RWA projects. Martin breaks down use cases for their ZK memory, VRF (Verifiable Random Function), and decentralized oracles—plus how Orochi is enabling privacy-preserving, verifiable, and interoperable infrastructure for the next generation of Web3 apps.

You’ll also learn how Orochi’s tech is helping developers cut costs, improve scalability, and keep sensitive data private—all without sacrificing decentralization.
