They check in on Zodiac, which started as a DAO toolset and has evolved into a modular access control suite for on-chain entities. They discuss the state of DAOs today—what's worked, what hasn't, and how tools like Zodiac might have mitigated large-scale multisig hacks like the recent Bybit exploit. The conversation then shifts to The Interfold (formerly Enclave), Gnosis Guild's new project combining FHE, ZK, and MPC to create encrypted execution environments. These enable multiple parties to collectively compute over private data and produce a verifiable output without any single trusted coordinator. They explore use cases like secret ballot voting and sealed bid auctions, the broader potential for collaborative analytics and private AI training, and how this fits into the larger privacy ecosystem.   Related Links Charting Zodiac & DAOs with Nathan Ginnever and Auryn Macmillan theinterfold.com gnosisguild.org How Aztec Raised $59M With 17,000 Bidders Using Uniswap’s CCA     Check out the talks from zkSummit14 in Rome on our YouTube channel here.     **If you like what we do:** * Find all our links here! @ZeroKnowledge | Linktree * Subscribe to our podcast newsletter * Follow us on Twitter @zeroknowledgefm * Join us on Telegram * Catch us on YouTube   **Support the show:** * Patreon * ETH - Donation address * BTC - Donation address * SOL - Donation address * ZEC - Donation address   Read transcript ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/zero-knowledge-1048106/episodes/from-access-control-to-encrypted-execution-with-auryn-macmillan/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/zero-knowledge-1048106/from-access-control-to-encrypted-execution-with-auryn-macmillan.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
