Zama Raises $57M, Becomes First Unicorn Involved With Fully Homomorphic Encryption
Zama, a cryptography company pioneering fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) for blockchains, said it raised $57 million in a series B round co-led by Blockchange Ventures and Pantera Capital. The team said the fundraise pushes Zama's total capital raised to over $150 million and values it at over $1 billion, making the firm the first unicorn involved with FHE. Fully homomorphic encryption is a way of keeping data private even while it's being used, making it especially valuable for sensitive applications in blockchain and AI. The funding, which comes as Zama's public testnet opens for use, will go toward the mainnet introduction, growing its ecosystem adoption, and research efforts. The Zama protocol allows developers to build encrypted decentralized applications (dapps) without needing deep cryptographic expertise. Use cases can range from confidential stablecoin issuance and asset tokenization to private identity verification and governance in network states, according to a statement shared with CoinDesk. It also has uses outside the blockchain environment, such as health care and defense, where secure computation on encrypted data is increasingly crucial. 'Zama is commercializing an entirely new generational technology that could redefine how confidentiality is handled in the blockchain and, ultimately, in all of cloud computing,' Ken Seiff, co-managing partner of Blockchange Ventures, said in the statement. 'This is our third and largest investment in Zama. Not since I first saw Ethereum in 2014, have I seen a company commercializing an entirely new technology that could be as foundational to our global technology infrastructure.' Zama's series A round, in which it raised $73 million, was led by Multicoin Capital and Protocol Labs. Sign in to access your portfolio

Denis Villeneuve to Direct Next James Bond Film for Amazon MGM
The next James Bond chapter has begun. Denis Villeneuve, the visionary behind 'Dune,' 'Blade Runner 2049,' and 'Arrival,' has been tapped to direct the next James Bond film for Amazon MGM Studios, the company announced on Wednesday. Villeneuve will also executive produce alongside Tanya Lapointe. Amy Pascal and David Heyman, as previously announced, are shepherding the franchise and producing for Amazon MGM after taking over from Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. More from IndieWire Remembering the Late Joe Don Baker, Dead at 89, Arguably the First American Bond Villain Helen Mirren Has 'Never Liked' James Bond Due to Franchise's 'Profound Sexism' A new 007 still has not been selected. 'Some of my earliest movie-going memories are connected to 007. I grew up watching James Bond films with my father, ever since 'Dr. No' with Sean Connery. I'm a die-hard Bond fan,' Villeneuve said in a statement. 'To me, he's sacred territory. I intend to honor the tradition and open the path for many new missions to come. This is a massive responsibility, but also, incredibly exciting for me and a huge honor. Amy, David, and I are absolutely thrilled to bring him back to the screen. Thank you to Amazon MGM Studios for their trust.' Mike Hopkins, head of Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, commented, 'We are honored that Denis has agreed to direct James Bond's next chapter. He is a cinematic master, whose filmography speaks for itself. From Blade Runner 2049 to Arrival to the Dune films, he has delivered compelling worlds, dynamic visuals, complex characters, and — most importantly — the immersive storytelling that global audiences yearn to experience in theaters. James Bond is in the hands of one of today's greatest filmmakers and we cannot wait to get started on 007's next adventure.' Pascal and Heyman said in a statement, 'Denis Villeneuve has been in love with James Bond movies since he was a little boy. It was always his dream to make this movie, and now it's ours, too. We are lucky to be in the hands of this extraordinary filmmaker.' The next big question for Villeneuve is when any new Bond film, which will be the 26th in the long-running spy franchise, would begin production and who will play 007. Villeneuve is expected to be working on a third 'Dune' film, with reports that it could begin shooting as early as this summer and could be aiming for a December 2026 release date, but nothing has been formally announced around the third film. THR however recently reported that Robert Pattinson was being eyed for a role in the film as its villain. Villeneuve is a four-time Oscar nominee (and IndieWire Honors recipient!) and with the two 'Dune' films has made a statement as one of the bigger directorial names at the box office in the biz. Last year's 'Dune: Part Two' was nominated for five Oscars, including Best Picture, and won two. Villeneuve is represented by CAA, Carlos Goodman, and ID.
