- The hardest thing to see in life is the thing that isn’t there, but if it was, it would make your life better. For years, I’ve been obsessed with fixing a poverty of verifiability that keeps users trapped and stifles innovation. Today’s launch of the Opacity developer platform1/ The hype is real. Opacity has raised $12M led by @archetypevc and @BreyerCap, with support from @a16zcrypto CSX, @FinalityCap, @bodhi_ventures, @NorthIslandVC,@EV3ventures, @AmbushCapital and @gd1_vc.
- 1/ Wanted to take a moment to thank the @tlsnotary team at the PSE. The venture funding rat race has begun to become the category leader in zkTLS. We shouldn’t let that overshadow the foundational work done by: @sinu_eth @th4s_ @heeckhau @maceip
- zkTLS isn’t just cool tech, it’s the best path towards fixing the internet today. It fundamentally changes the laws of physics of the internet. It’s your data in these walled gardens, you should be able to share it however you please. You guys have no fucking idea what we haveWorking alongside @JustinMezzell and @alexisohanian on the new @digg, I find myself particularly focused on what I see as the defining challenge: the battleground for authenticity. Put simply: How do we know who's real in a world of perfect AI mimicry? Right now, we don't. And
- How can crypto help creators you ask? By making their engagement verifiable. 1m+ revenue in 7 months CPV > $0.03 🤯 $300k payouts to creators every quarter. Buckle your seat belts, @daisypayapp out here taking crypto to a new level. Built on @solana 🫡
- 1/ New episode – Building the DeFi UX of the Future with @kaiynne from @infinex Hosts: @eulerlagrange @dawufi Produced by: @Proof_Coverage We discuss: - Lessons & learnings from DeFi Summer and beyond - The quest for undercollateralized crypto lending - How @OpacityNetwork
00:00 - It's been exciting to see possible use cases at the intersection of zkTLS and AI agents. We at @OpacityNetwork think a lot about having a robust, adaptive security model for our zkTLS protocol, such that the proofs are suitable for adversarial decentralized contexts. We found a
- Pretty wild to see trad business recognize innovation in crypto as useful before a lot of crypto does. On a personal note @ArynChadha grew to quick on me 😿 I still remember like it was yesterday bringing him by the CSX office to meet @hrojantorse (thanks for the exceptionAn Ethereum-powered app (Earnifi) just won Best Financial Services App at the 2025 American Business Awards. (@TheStevieAwards) Not a crypto award, a mainstream award won by companies like Apple, Microsoft, and Google. You might not hear your favorite influencer talking about
00:00 - Blockchains are not actually that useful unless they are interoperable with the existing internet. This is why zkTLS matters, why its adoption is taking off, and why I won't stop talking about it.
- Opacity as an AVS is unique in that we can support verifying proofs on different L1s from the Ethereum AVS via @eigencloud (more on that soon 👀). This gives rise to complexity around payments and broader protocol economics. Luckily @altantutar and the chads at
- So zkSync originally had trouble with adoption because they reqd bls keys for wallets. The signature aggregation would have made it much cheaper to run a rollup though. With 7702 i think this problem could be solved. Where a BLS key is registered as a delegate. wdyt @gluk64
