Believe in ZK.

“ZK is a rare technology - unquestionably, unambiguously correct directionally. There’s a future where every computation that secures economic value will be proven with zero-knowledge.” - @Ismael_H_R, Founder of @lagrangedev In Ismael's view, ZK sits alongside AI and quantum as R&D that will compound for decades. In that world, anything tied to value - blockchain consensus, DeFi risk checks, even cloud AI workflows - ships with a proof. What does that world look like? Blockchains don’t just assume their state transitions - they accompany them with validity proofs. DeFi apps don’t just query prices - they prove the pricing logic ran correctly. Cloud services don’t just run AI - they attest which model ran and what it actually computed. To get there, Ismael argues that we need two guarantees: • Safety (cryptographic correctness): the proof says the computation was done right. • Liveness (timely delivery): the proof arrives when the system needs it. A proof alone buys safety; a resilient proving infrastructure - often decentralized or market-based - buys liveness. If a validity proof or a risk-check proof doesn’t arrive on time, withdrawals stall, liquidations misfire, and users take real risk. This is why mechanism design (auctions that match proof demand to compute supply, incentives, penalties for missed deadlines) are becoming an imperative part of the ZK story. The scope of ZK also extends far beyond blockchains. As more economic activity rides on inference - from finance to healthcare to autonomy - verifiability matters: proving which model ran, that inputs weren’t tampered with, and that outputs are consistent. If the “GDP of knowledge work” leans on AI, the trust layer will be ZK.

AI Agents are loops: an LLM selects tools, acts, reads results, and iterates - and @bkase_ suggests that as they develop, we'll typically see many specialized agents coordinating rather than a single monolith. In his @Zk_Hub_Global talk, Brandon explained that proving full LLM inference is not tractable today; the practical path is ZK around the agent.

At House of ZK, our goal is simple: help zero-knowledge reach everyone who can benefit from it. Through global events like @Zk_Hub_Global, podcasts, virtual conferences, limited-edition magazines, industry news reports, and focused education series, we’re building a platform to connect projects, inform users, and accelerate adoption - so ZK can power privacy, scalability, security, interoperability, verifiable AI, and many other breakthroughs shaping the next generation of applications. If you’re building something great with ZK, we’d love to collaborate. Let’s bring zero-knowledge to mass adoption together! 🤝

At House of ZK, we’ve quietly built one of the most comprehensive media platforms for deserving projects building with zero-knowledge cryptography. Our platform stands on multiple pillars: 🔹 The largest ZK-related global events (@Zk_Hub_Global, et al) 🔸 A podcast series that recently passed its 50th episode, and project-focused livestreams 🔹 Highly acclaimed virtual conferences 🔸 Limited edition printed magazines 🔹 Industry news reports and focused articles 🔸 A developer education series with leading zk cryptographer @vanishree_rao 🔹 And we're actively working on adding more (stay tuned) 👀 Everything we do is guided by a single objective: helping the world to understand the enormity of what is being built in this complex space, ultimately aiding ZK's adoption. Every project or business should understand the advantages of integrating ZK into their stack. Every user should know that ZK-based apps offer superior privacy, performance, and security. Every investor should recognize how early this opportunity still is. We also aim to ensure that House of ZK remains neutral - not relying on any single contributor to stay operational. We’re interested in exploring mutually supportive partnerships that help both sides not just survive, but thrive. If you’re building something important and believe our platform can help, reach out: 📩 ben.w@hozk.io X: @0x1164 A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us on the journey so far. It's time to take it to new heights 🤝

At @Zk_Hub_Global, Polygon Co-founder @jbaylina presented ZisK - a new open-source zkVM and proving system built in Rust around a 64-bit RISC-V architecture. Designed for low-latency, client-side proving, ZisK aims at real-time ZK verification for complex workloads like Ethereum blocks and rollup states. Built on years of @0xPolygon zkEVM R&D, ZisK is now live for testing, with audits and optimizations ongoing. Learn more: piped.video/live/N4JibRTHsVc 👇

In this forward-looking session from @Zk_Hub_Global, Ismael breaks down why everything will be proven - from rollups to AI - and why decentralized proof networks are the infrastructure to make it happen. He shares how @lagrangedev became one of the most widely used decentralized prover networks in production, and how their modular architecture and novel auction mechanism deliver performance, reliability, and scale across crypto and beyond 🤝 Also available on YouTube: piped.video/watch?v=zv1JsaI7…

.@HouseofZK events aren't just on another level, they're in another dimension.

At @Zk_Hub_Global, Dr. @yq_acc (CEO of @alt_layer) unveiled Autonome, a decentralized infrastructure stack for verifiable crypto AI agents. From 24/7 uptime guarantees via AVS, to trusted execution with TEEs, and confidential cross-agent communication - Autonome lays the foundation for a scalable, secure, and composable AI agent economy. Explore the future of agent-based systems in Web3 🤝 Also available on YouTube: piped.video/watch?v=3OagKqbs…

.@FormallyJon introduced LLZK, a unified intermediate representation for ZK circuit DSLs, at ETH Denver. Since then, we've made solid progress and will have more to share in the coming weeks. Thanks @HouseofZK for having us!

At @Zk_Hub_Global, @qedk_ (Senior R&D Engineer, @AvailProject) unveiled Avail Nexus - a trust-minimized interoperability layer that enables seamless, low-latency execution across rollups. Think: Amazon-style UX for Web3. From ZK proofs to modular chain unification, this could be the future of chain abstraction. Also available on YouTube: piped.video/watch?v=hXr6MHC9…

🏠 House of ZK: Brandon Talk Brandon spoke at @Zk_Hub_Global. 🔸 Brandon introduced the concept of ZK as the "boundary layer" for AI agents. 🔗

How should L2s outsource proofs without compromising decentralization? In this talk from @Zk_Hub_Global, @NorbertVadas, Head of Product at @gevulot_labs (@thezkcloud), breaks down the risks of auction-based proving marketplaces and argues for a permissionless, randomized, and redundant approach to proof infrastructure. A clear case against centralizing trust in ZK rollups 🤝 Also available on the @HouseofZK YouTube: piped.video/watch?v=WjHV2kIJ…

What happens when ZK wraps around AI instead of trying to prove it? In this talk from @Zk_Hub_Global, @bkase_ (CEO of @o1_labs/@MinaProtocol) argues that the real near-term value of ZK x AI is in control, privacy, and coordination - not proving LLMs. Brandon introduces the idea of ZK as the "boundary layer" for AI agents - governing access to data, payments, and identity. He also teases a little bit about “@untitled_ZK”, a new decentralized private state layer for agent memory and coordination 🤝

What if your data worked for you instead of against you? In one of the most gripping talks at @Zk_Hub_Global ETHDenver, Juan Angel (@juanaxyz00), Ecosystem Growth at @nillionnetwork, made the case for “open but private” data - arguing that blind computation can break data out of corporate silos and let users lease it securely without ever revealing the raw inputs. Through real examples like encrypted genomic data (via Monatic DNA) and incentivized health prediction markets (Stadium Science), Juan painted a future where users hold the encryption keys, opt in to share data selectively, and get paid every time it's used. The biggest takeaway? Not your keys, not your data. This talk is also available to view on the @HouseofZK YouTube: piped.video/watch?v=ulF9WdsZ…
