House of ZK

HoZK is heading to Cannes for @EthCC 🇫🇷 Together with @Mercuryo_io, we are hosting a curated VIP Private Reception on the Riviera, with support from @Optimism, @aurum_ecosystem and @cantinaxyz. Access is strictly by approval and invitation only. Capacity is extremely limited. See you in Cannes. 🎟️ luma.com/6heg47kl

Most blockchain tickets are just networking wrapped in FOMO. @consensus2026 in Miami is different — it's where the conversations that actually move the space forward happen. HoZK will be there. And if you're heading to Miami, use our discount code to grab your ticket 👇 go.coindesk.com/4qQrkAa

@vanishree_rao 1. What is a prediction market and how do I benefit from using one/yours? Explained in multiple ways

ok i want to create a bunch of videos on various topics in prediction markets. what topics would be interesting you think?

Deepfakes are becoming indistinguishable from reality. Congrats to @brevis_zk on launching Brevis Vera, verifiable media authenticity is emerging as one of the most important infrastructure layers in the age of AI.

@GOATNetwork GOATED

Everyone keeps saying it.

@Calcutat @StarkWareLtd @Starknet 💯

@HouseofZK @StarkWareLtd @Starknet huge

JUST IN: Leading theoretical computer scientist and quantum computing expert, Professor Scott Aaronson, has joined the @StarkWareLtd Scientific Advisory Board. Scott will help accelerate @Starknet efforts in making Bitcoin quantum-ready.

House of Zk Radio #99: Zac Williamson, CEO of Aztec - out now on Spotify & YouTube 🔳 In this previously unaired episode from 2025, we sit down with @Zac_Aztec CEO @Zac_Aztec to discuss the origins of Aztec and why privacy is the hardest problem in ZK. Topics covered include client-side proving constraints, why privacy requires rethinking blockchain architecture, trade-offs between zkVMs and DSLs (including Aztec’s @NoirLang), and where TEEs and FHE fit as partial tools rather than end-to-end privacy solutions.

JUST IN: @goatnetwork's GOAT BitVM2 Testnet (V3) is live - their final public testnet before mainnet.

JUST IN: @citrea_xyz Mainnet is now live, enabling a suite of DeFi applications on the Bitcoin Network.

“If you’re not technical, all you need to know is this: GOAT Network is built to earn yield in BTC, with clear risk levels.” - Dr. Redouane Elkamhi, Economic Lead at @goatnetwork In Episode #88, the @UofT Professor of Finance breaks down: • What “earning yield on BTC” actually means (BTC-denominated returns, not reward points). • Why risk disclosure matters more than APY marketing: different risk profiles should map to different expected returns. • The minimum questions to ask any “Bitcoin L2” before deploying capital: decentralization, enforcement/exit path, and how it anchors back to Bitcoin. • Why GOAT Network’s design targets incentive alignment with Bitcoin’s long-term security model (activity that ultimately pays for L1 security). If you’re evaluating Bitcoin yield products, this episode is the baseline: understand the risk tier you’re choosing, the return you’re being paid for it, and whether the system is actually built to be enforceable on Bitcoin: #88-dr-redouane-elkamhi-chief-economist-at-goat-network" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hozk.io/radio#88-dr-re…

@idealgroup @robin_linus @liameagen @therealyingtong Congrats 👏

Today, the creators of BitVM, including @robin_linus, @liameagen, and @therealyingtong, launch { 𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙡 }. We're using cryptography to advance privacy and scalability on Bitcoin. Our first contribution is Argo, a garbling scheme enabling 2000× efficiency gains.

House of ZK Radio #98: Illia Polosukhin, Co-founder of NEAR Protocol - out now on Spotify & YouTube 🔲 In this episode we sit down with @ilblackdragon, co-founder of @NEARProtocol, to trace NEAR’s origin as an AI-first startup and how scaling global micropayments led to building a new L1. We cover NEAR’s developer stack (Wasm, Rust, TypeScript, Python), the emerging “AI + blockchain” thesis, where zero-knowledge proofs fit (privacy, local proving, verifiable computation), and why TEEs plus ZK may converge into practical hybrid systems. Illia also shares NEAR’s work on offchain computation via TEEs, formal verification priorities, and the roadmap toward agent-driven, cross-chain execution.
