One of the few projects that has a deep base of quantitative research and tech stack + real potential utilization. (2023-2024+ - ZKP narrative).
If DeFi protocols are gaining momentum in ZK rollups, Keom Protocol can be a pioneer in the new upcoming Polygon paradigm - rollups based on STARK-proofs( = provide more scalability compared to SNARKS so more useful for high-volume apps).
What is good and promising:
- First-of-its-kind on-chain order book. Theoretically, zk proofs can really make this «on-chain order book» concept feasible and sustainable.
- MEV protection. Everyone is tired of front-running.
- Convenient margin trading. Remember GMX jumping into Arbitrum.
2 questions and challenges:
- The project is very dependent on Polygon Miden's success or failure. Launched Polygon zkEVM couldn't attract enough liquidity to be at the top of ZKP leaders. For Keom, no liquidity - no PMF.
- Failed to find any details about the "hard-coded compliance" mentioned in the header. How exactly did the team achieve such a milestone as being compliant and hardcoded it?
- Would be good to dig into their "AI-enhanced" assistant if it's not just a buzzword. Show Less
