Nillion – The Base Layer For Private Data

Why you should listen

John Woods is the Chief Technology Officer of the Nillion Association, where he’s leading the development of a decentralized privacy compute network known as the “Blind Computer.” Previously, John served as CTO at the Algorand Foundation and Chief Architect at IOHK (Cardano). With a background in cryptography and systems architecture, John’s work focuses on building scalable, secure, and verifiable infrastructure for the decentralized internet. Nillion is building one of the most advanced decentralized privacy infrastructures in Web3 — a system designed not just for security, but for verifiability and scale. Now moving from a company-operated model to a fully permissionless network, Nillion is embedding decentralization into the architecture layer-by-layer: node operators, attestation checkers, and a cryptoeconomic substrate ($NIL) that rewards contribution and accountability.
