Clearmatics’ “Distributed Virtual Machine” (DVM) combines logic with ledger to achieve true distributed automation of business processes. Leveraging the DVM will enable entrepreneurs in sectors across the economy to create new business models and redesign processes to drive innovation. We are already building out financial market applications with top tier financial services partners to streamline payments and clearing and settlement processes.

Working at Clearmatics

Our growing Engineering team includes a Solidity Bug Bounty winner, a member of the Ethereum Core Security Team as well as experience from The Ethereum Foundation, Skype, Online Gaming and Aerospace & Defence. We are active members of the Ethereum ecosystem.

The team is working in an area of rapid innovation and has a strong Open Source ethos. We have implemented a thoroughly researched privacy solution involving Stealth Addresses and Ring Signatures and are currently working on how to interoperate Ethereum based chains without an intermediary.

Other areas of current research include zkSNARKs, multiparty computation, private transactions/assets, protocol design (e.g. proof relays/pegs), formally verified smart contracts, and type-safe and performant distributed virtual machine architectures.
