    Aleph Zero will work alongside the world’s largest telecommunications organizations to help to develop standardized blockchain APIs for the industry

    Aleph Zero, a blockchain ecosystem engineered for speed, data confidentiality, and ease of development, has officially joined the CAMARA Foundation as a General Member. This strategic move marks a significant step towards integrating advanced blockchain technology with global telecommunications standards, particularly in the realm of Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs).

    As a General Member, Aleph Zero will work closely with global telecom and tech leaders within CAMARA to develop and contribute to blockchain-specific initiatives. A key focus of this collaboration will be the Blockchain Public Address API, which has the potential to revolutionize how users interact with blockchain technologies through their mobile devices.

    The CAMARA Project, launched in 2021 under the Linux Foundation and GSMA, aims to create standardized APIs for telecommunications networks. This initiative is designed to simplify network complexities and provide seamless access to network capabilities across different operators and countries. A cornerstone of this effort is the Blockchain Public Address API, which was initiated in June 2023 and is currently in version 0.1.0. The CAMARA Project now includes over 230 companies – including Deutsche Telekom, stc, Vodafone and Telefónica – and 650 individual participants.

    This API allows for the management of blockchain addresses associated with phone numbers, offering features such as retrieval of blockchain public addresses linked to phone numbers, and the binding and unbinding of these addresses. By utilizing blockchain public addresses as Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs), the API enables telecom service providers to offer third parties the capability to pair phone numbers with blockchain addresses, thereby simplifying transactions for end-users.

    Aleph Zero’s expertise in zero-knowledge proofs and privacy-preserving technologies will contribute significantly to the further development and refinement of the group’s blockchain-related solutions.

    Antoni Zolciak, co-founder at Aleph Zero, said: “The integration of blockchain technology into mainstream infrastructure is accelerating at an unprecedented rate. Forward-thinking organizations across various sectors are recognizing the transformative potential of distributed ledger technologies. We’re looking forward to collaborating with various members of the Foundation and contributing to the telecommunications APIs from a blockchain standpoint.”

    Aleph Zero, known for its cutting-edge blockchain ecosystem, offers secure, scalable, and privacy-focused solutions for Web3 applications. With its zkOS and EVM Layer 2 network, Aleph Zero continues to push the boundaries of blockchain technology, focusing on privacy, scalability, and interoperability. Aleph Zero recently launched its EVM-layer, an exceptionally fast and efficient blockchain, boasting a block time of up to 250 milliseconds with near-instant transaction finality.

    2024-09-19T14:45:00Z

    PCBB has announced the appointment of Radhika Lipton as Chief Risk Officer, succeeding Steve Baca, who is retiring after nearly two decades of distinguished service.

    WALNUT CREEK, Calif., Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PCBB, a leading financial firm dedicated to serving the needs of community-based financial institutions nationwide, is pleased to announce the appointment of Radhika Lipton as Chief Risk Officer. Radhika, renowned for her expertise in bolstering organizational resilience and optimizing operational efficiency through strategic risk mitigation, will succeed Steve Baca, who is set to retire in early 2025 after nearly two decades of exemplary service.

    Throughout his tenure, Steve has been instrumental in guiding PCBB’s risk management strategies, contributing significantly to the firm's impressive growth — more than doubling its assets and increasing the customer base over the past decade.

    Radhika Lipton brings a wealth of experience in risk management, compliance, and internal auditing from her tenure at prestigious global companies, financial institutions, and fintech startups. Most recently, she served as Chief Risk and Compliance Officer at Mambu Americas, Inc., and as Chief Compliance Officer at Sunwest Bank. She also founded RADD LLC, a consulting firm specializing in internal auditing and compliance, and serves as a Board Member and Audit Committee Chair at Walden Mutual Bank in New Hampshire.

    Radhika is a distinguished speaker at industry conferences, where she addresses topics such as high-risk banking, compliance and regulatory standards. She stated, “I am excited to join the PCBB team as we continue to pursue new market opportunities to bring our customers to the next level of banking. I am passionate about developing and leading comprehensive risk frameworks and compliance strategies that align with business objectives and regulatory standards.”

    PCBB looks forward to leveraging Radhika’s extensive knowledge and experience to enhance its risk management framework, ensuring continued success and innovation in the evolving financial landscape.
