zk-SNARKs keep Mina's blockchain light and your personal data private – but there's even more going on behind the tech. In this video, Brandon simply breaks down what zk-SNARKs are by comparing them to the game of "Where's Waldo?" By the end of this video, you'll know what they are, how they work, and their importance to Mina and the greater crypto community!

What is Mina?
Mina is the world’s lightest blockchain, powered by participants. Rather than apply brute computing force, Mina uses advanced cryptography and recursive zk-SNARKs to design an entire blockchain that is and always will be about 22kb, the size of a couple of tweets, ushering in a new era of blockchain accessibility. With its unique privacy features and ability to connect to any website, Mina is building a private gateway between the real world and crypto—and the secure, democratic future we all deserve. Mina is stewarded by the Mina Foundation, a non-profit organization.
