Beam News!
In this week's newsletter, we bring you some exciting updates and highlights from the Beam ecosystem. Let's dive right in!
Beam Privacy!
It’s often important to step back and take a look at the bigger picture. Privacy is a fundamental aspect when it comes to finances and crypto. In an era of increasing digital transactions and surveillance, safeguarding personal and financial data has become crucial. Beam is pioneering PriFi, Privacy preserving DeFi, leading the way in to empowering individuals to take control of their financial transactions. With Beam, individuals can enjoy the benefits of DeFi while maintaining the privacy and security of their financial activities, from transacting or trading, to socials and messaging. By championing privacy as a core value, Beam is reshaping the landscape of both finance and crypto, and setting a new standard for a privacy-centric financial system.
It is a pleasure to be doing so with the support of the community and ever expanding ecosystem. The first half of the year has been jam-packed with updates, releases, and new additions to the Beam ecosystem. We are looking forward to an even more fruitful second half of the year with you all!
Privacy Tweets Series!
"Arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say."
Edward Snowden
"I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves."
Harriet Tubman
