At Keep we are excited to work with an incredible team of advisors. They bring deep blockchain and cryptocurrency expertise, and have worked alongside our leadership team for years. Upon hearing about the Keep project, they were eager to join as advisors and help guide our progress as we develop privacy solutions for the Ethereum blockchain.

When we approached Brayton about the privacy solution for the public Ethereum blockchain, he was immediately on board to help the us realize this vision. He has known about the privacy issue from years of working with blockchain companies and understands the widespread potential impact of a viable solution like Keep.

Axel Blikstad

Axel Blikstad, CFA

Axel is a Certified Financial Analyst (CFA) that worked for 24 years on the financial industry and became involved with crypto assets and blockchain/technology-related VC investments since May 2016. He has been working with our team since then and he acts as an advisor for a number of tech start-ups in which he is also an investor.

When we approached Axel about Keep, he was most excited about how this privacy solution compared to existing solutions as well as its potential for mainstream market adoption.

“Recently we have seen more private blockchains being announced, but the TRUE decentralized blockchains are the PUBLIC blockchains. The Keep project is what will serve all counterparts on a truly decentralized, secure and private manner. Keep will solve the problem of keeping sensitive information private and allow the blockchain ecosystem to go mainstream.”
