In the third episode of Tech Talks, Ed is joined by Auryn Macmillan, founder of Gnosis Guild and former professional basketball player, to explore the rise of Encrypted Execution Environments (E3s) and what they could mean for the future of onchain privacy.Auryn shares his journey from the world of professional sport to crypto, the early days at Gnosis, and how that led to the creation of Enclave, a protocol combining FHE, ZKPs, and MPC to power a new class of confidential applications. The conversation explores real-world use cases including secret ballots, sealed-bid auctions, and collaborative data analytics.With a unique blend of technical vision and product leadership, Auryn now leads Gnosis Guild as an independent applied research studio, focused on building the infrastructure and tools for more private, modular, and decentralised ecosystems.To speak to this episode’s host, Ed Frost, please email him at e.frost@lawrenceharvey.com Or to learn more about Enclave, visit https://www.enclave.gg/
