ZK Stack is a modular framework for building sovereign ZK-powered hyperchains, based on zkSync Era’s open source code. ➡️ Visit the new ZK Stack resource page: ZK Stack gives builders full sovereignty, ranging from the choice of the data availability mode to using your project's own token to decentralize the sequencer. ✅ Mature and battle-tested ZK Stack is the most battle-tested framework, ensuring all transactions are fully verified by Ethereum with the power of ZK proofs. ZK enables validity proofs to ensure the hyperchains' ecosystem state can't be corrupted and invalid transactions can't exist. ZK Stack has been further strengthened by $5M+ invested in audits, $~30M transactions-per-month and ~250k daily active users. ✅ Tailored to your needs ZK Stack grants you full autonomy to tailor your blockchain to cater to your product or protocol use case. A modular stack of ZK-powered components. ✅ Ready for mainstream adoption No matter how much adoption grows, ZK Stack brings the power of horizontal scalability to Ethereum. Just like adding more servers to address specific needs on the Internet, a boundless amount of hyperchains can be created with minimal costs. ZK tech, combined with our state diffs and data-compression approaches, unlocks: 📌 Flat fees regardless of gas price 📌 Privacy by default 📌 Cheap oracles (or any high-frequency protocol) 📌 Ultra low cost Validium accounts 📌 UX magic with native account abstraction ✅ Seamless access to users and liquidity Hyperchains are seamlessly interconnected with hyperbridges — the native and trustless communication protocol of the ZK Stack. It enables any chain to natively exchange messages and transfer value with any other chain, thus tapping into the users and liquidity of the entire hyperchain ecosystem. Unlike classic, centralized, bridges, hyperbridges rely solely on cryptography for security. ✅ Built today, to last forever ZK Stack is rooted in the long-term vision of Ethereum, aiming for subtraction and decentralization. Abiding by the ZK Credo principles, an alliance of developers and maintainers will guarantee the resources enabling this fully open source framework to evolve to onboard the needs of the next billion users.

If last year was great. This year was 🤯. Alhamdullilah. 10 days. 3 houses. 22 Muslims in tech. The houses were packed mashallah with founders including 3x YC founders, exited founders, VCs in the Muslim space, apps with millions of users, founders of Muslim accelerators and engineers working at leading companies. People flew in from 🇬🇧🇦🇪🇨🇦🇺🇸🇧🇭🇳🇱🇮🇪 to make this. SF Tech House | 2024 Edition | The Highlights: ✨ House dinners with Muslims from companies including Microsoft, Tesla, Google, YouTube & Neuralink ✨ Private house fireside chats with special guests including exited founder to Uber, ex-VP at Google Cloud and Sami Hamdi (Sami Hamdi سامي الهاشمي الحامدي) ✨ Muslim Tech Fest (Muslim Tech Fest) - Haroon's talk was literally one of the best I've ever heard. ✨ Discussions around AI & Ethics at Zaytuna College with Hamza Yusuf. ✨ Visits to Stanford (absolutely stunning ... had to get me some merch) & Berkley university campuses ✨ MTW Kick Off Lunch at Sals + Tech Dinner at Zareens ✨ Lunch + tour of Google with their Muslim Network including a Demo Day at their offices. We asked some important & tough questions. ✨ White Water Rafting on South Fork American River. ✨ Q&A at YC with YC Partner Brad Flora who was very nice and accommodating. ✨ & Buildspace tour with Omar Waseem + Q&A with their GP Hubert Thieblot ✨ Visit to Apple Visitor Centre in Cupertino ✨ Experiencing Waymo (driverless taxi) in San Francisco ✨ BBQ with Muslims in Tech in South Bay ✨ Marshmallows on the Beach with the Muslim Bay Area community It was an unbelievable week packed with value and amazing vibes alhamdullilah ❤️ The talent in the house was insane. A text I received from someone staying in the house after returning home: "I can without doubt say that there are a few unicorns coming out of that house. What you’ve done is unprecedented for our community, I always felt we were the underdogs, I can almost certainly say after this that we are now in the lead. I don’t think there is any other community who is so supportive of each other, while being ambitious to try to build great things alhamdulilah." We all left with huge determination to build impactful solutions for humanity, to encourage ihsaan (perfection) and and to bring some of our learnings from the Bay Area to our respective countries to help build Muslim tech ecosystems across the world. I pray this trip helped plant some seeds 🌱 We'll be measuring the success of it by the progress we see in the years to come inshaAllah!

🚨 THE BIGGEST BOTTLENECK IN AI ISN'T COMPUTING POWER ANYMORE IT'S MOVING DATA. Instead of laying new cables, Chinese researchers have upgraded existing fiber infrastructure by doing two things at once: Using three wavelength bands (C + L + S) instead of the usual two. Using four cores inside each fiber instead of one. Each core acts like an independent highway, and each band acts like an extra lane on that highway. Together, they’ve reportedly increased transmission capacity per core by nearly 50% and overall data throughput by up to 5×. This matters enormously for AI. Modern AI clusters move terabits of data per second between thousands of GPUs. The biggest bottleneck is often not the chips themselves, but moving data fast enough between them. If you can push 5× more data through the same physical cables, you can train bigger models faster and reduce network congestion. Why this is significant: • It shows multi-core + extended spectrum technology moving from labs into real-world commercial use • The system has already run over 35 km of existing telecom network • It could be especially useful for submarine cables and large-scale data center interconnects • China is also eyeing it for its “Eastern Data, Western Computing” project The deeper implication: We’re reaching the physical limits of how much data we can push through single-core fibers using traditional methods. By combining spatial multiplexing (multiple cores) with spectral multiplexing (more wavelength bands), engineers are finding new ways to keep scaling bandwidth without having to dig up the planet to lay new cables. This kind of breakthrough is quiet but foundational it’s the kind of infrastructure upgrade that will determine how fast AI and cloud computing can actually grow in the coming years. The future of data movement might not require more cables. It might just require smarter ones. How important do you think multi-core and multi-band fiber will be for keeping up with AI’s exploding data demands? Follow for more frontier networking, photonics, and infrastructure technology.

Frameworks such as ai16zdao's Eliza and Virtuals Protocol have been instrumental in early AI agent developments. Agent swarms working in hierarchy represents for many the next logical step in unlocking the vast potential of AI. Learn below how Shadō Network achieves this. AI agents launched through current popular platforms have individual personas, on-chain functions and access to data via various APIs. This being said, they operate in isolated environments, with a ceiling on emergent behaviour such as collaboration or competition. Shadō Network invites massive expansion for capabilities of both new and existing AI agents, with an open-source package easily integrated into popular frameworks that enables the launching of stratified agent swarms. Our website is live: The "Shadō Play" package provides a modular, configurable platform for creating or employing agents of choice in a swarm-like setup, opening a Pandora’s box of near infinite emergent agent behaviours, relationships and functionalities. Users will be able to make use of various prefab client integrations such as Twitter, Telegram, Ollama, and others to specify swarms to their needs or create their own extensions to enhance agent capabilities even further. Agents operate with a memory module and a HTN for autonomously deciding which interactions to act on, walking the line between autonomy and configurability. The Shadō Network project’s development is supported by our ghostly friend Omnipotent (👻,👻), an AI agent developed by the Shadō Network team trained on and fine tuned with a multitude of academic data related to artificial intelligence, blockchain, finance, software engineering, world building and more. Omnipotent serves as both an interactive steward for the project and as an asset - regularly scanning social platforms, websites and newsfeeds he is capable of providing the team project development advice, whilst also communicating with the wider world via his automated X account (launching soon). Shado Network is collaborative and open-sourced. Agentic Swarms require a developer swarm to maximize the technical capabilities and impact the greatest number of users. Our dedicated team of core contributors are active in other web3 AI repos and are here to guide project direction and foster growth. We’re facilitators, not gatekeepers... Alone we can go fast but together we can go far. A lot more to come soon. 👻

Frameworks such as ai16zdao's Eliza and Virtuals Protocol have been instrumental in early AI agent developments. Agent swarms working in hierarchy represents for many the next logical step in unlocking the vast potential of AI. Learn below how Shadō Network achieves this. AI agents launched through current popular platforms have individual personas, on-chain functions and access to data via various APIs. This being said, they operate in isolated environments, with a ceiling on emergent behaviour such as collaboration or competition.

For new followers: - I'm a long-time investor and builder in this space. - Founding Contributor of Realms.World ☁️. - Co-founder of Dojo. - Builder with the kings at Cartridge. - Starknet (Privacy Arc) class of '21. - Founder and Game Director of ETERNUM HAS MOVED. - Founder of Daydreams.Systems (x402, 8004 agents) My prime purpose for the past three years has been to build onchain infrastructure to enable the next generation of onchain experiences. This is done Starknet (Privacy Arc) as it is the superior VM for building complex applications—this will become clear soon enough. I work up and down the entire stack, from low-level indexing and contracts to GUI design. Nothing is out of scope. I have been pushing on agents for two years, mostly using existing frameworks like , until I came across @ElizaOS_ai in October. As I focused on building agents for ETERNUM HAS MOVED, it became clear that agents playing games require infinite paths to achieve goals. Thus, it's not scalable to hardcode functions—agents need to have total fluidity to take any action or call anything the game requires in any order. And ironically onchain infra is perfect for agent playgrounds because of its open nature. This exploration led me to create Daydreams.Systems (x402, 8004 agents), which focuses on the hardest problems of agents: long time-horizon goals using Hierarchical task networks (HTN). Daydreams agents don't require custom code—they work entirely based on 'sleeves'—which are just markdown files that explain how the agent can interact with the service (API docs, game guides, etc.) My thesis is simple. By focusing on the hardest problem (games), the design of the library will naturally lean towards an optimal structure for any problem an agent could face. We are early in this path and iterating with speed. If you are an onchain app developer or game builder—DM me, I want to know the architecture of your game so we can build sleeves together.

Vitaliks mandarin fluency is a super bullish signal for Ethereum 🐂 He had an open town hall at HK where community members asked him all sorts of questions, from the easy to the difficult The hard questions were all in Mandarin so i couldn't follow those 😅 At the town hall he laid out the guiding principle for Ethereum: cooperation without domination It's especially important in today's world where a powerful person dictates terms and others have to follow, or we have no cooperation & there's chaos What this means at a technical level is that Ethereums the world computer & we need to build enough trust that developers feel comfortable building apps on top of it. Solo staking, a conservative approach to changing the protocol etc are all part of this He also spoke on how new technology is a reset & creates a level playing field where the game starts again from zero with bringing a lot more people right to the frontier We are seeing this with AI (and zk too), where a noob developer can still catch up to a veteran with good prompt engineering. He shared his own experience of building an android app for the first time using AI despite having no prior experience in it Before people would say that EF needs to write more documentation. Now it's more relevant to show how deep seek integrations with solidity and Java can help easily create new Ethereum apps He sees AI as making it much easier for newcomers to build web3 apps & is making a push in this direction

Say hello to Boojum 👋: zkSync Era’s new high-performance proof system for radical decentralization. Boojum is an upgrade that will transition zkSync Era to a STARK-powered proof system, providing world-class performance on consumer-grade hardware. 💡 Learn more: TL;DR 👇 Boojum is the name of our Rust-based cryptographic library, which we use to implement the upgraded version of the ZK circuits for zkSync Era and the ZK Stack. The name Boojum was inspired by Lewis Carroll's poem "The Hunting of the Snark," where the Boojum represents the most fearsome kind of Snark. We intentionally designed zkSync Era in a way that cryptographic upgrades can be made without a regenesis, meaning that the Boojum upgrade won’t cause any user disruptions. Why Boojum❓ From day one, zkSync’s mission is to advance personal freedom for all — making digital self-ownership universally accessible by building a blockchain network that is trustless, secure, permissionless, affordable, easy to use, resilient and limitlessly scalable. Boojum plays an important role in advancing this mission by delivering: 1. World-class performance zkSync Era’s current SNARK-based proof system is effective today, but it won’t scale to the volume that we envision for hyperchains. zkSync Era’s sequencer can already process over 100 TPS; Boojum orders of magnitude improvements to performance complements this well. 2. Reduced hardware requirements for decentralization Our long-term goal is to enable user-powered, decentralized proof generation. Boojum represents a breakthrough in this direction — with the prover running on consumer-grade GPUs requiring only 16 GB GPU RAM. Boojum’s Journey to Mainnet 🚴🏽‍♀️ Boojum is now live on Mainnet, generating and verifying ‘shadow proofs’ today with real production data so that we can carefully test the system ahead of fully migrating. Today, we’re also open-sourcing the repo; if you’d like to take a look, you can find it here 👇 This is the first of a series of posts on Boojum. We will provide updates on our progress, including more details on implementation, security, and performance. Watch here for more, anon ∎

Eleven years ago I founded my first startup. One of the first things I did was to get a desk at the startup coworking space at Google Campus in Old Street. Through that community, I met so many of the people who would shape my career and learned so much about what the startup ethos is truly about. As we have scaled Attio, we've partnered with Google Cloud to build on top of the mind blowing technologies they've created like Spanner, Colossus and Gemini to power a new generation of CRM for our customers. For all these reasons, Google is deeply woven into my startup journey and that makes today's announcement so special to me. I'm beyond excited to announce our $52 million Series B, led by Michael McBride and the GV, along with the continued support of our incredible partners from Redpoint , Point Nine , Balderton Capital and 01A. We're entering a software renaissance driven by AI and we're unbelievably excited about continuing the hard work of delivering the next generation of CRM. We're building a truly AI-native platform that can run code, integrate anywhere and bring unified context for the next generation of autonomous workflows. None of this would have been possible without the support of the more than 5,000 customers who have already chosen Attio as the backbone of their GTM stack. Your belief in our vision is what has made this possible and I can't wait to share more about some of the incredible functionality that's still to come. I'm incredibly grateful for the continued support of alex bard , Patrick Chase, Ricardo Sequerra Amram, Daniel Waterhouse and dick costolo whose belief in Attio from the earliest days has been so essential to our progress so far and to my co-founder Nicolas Sharp, for the many sleepless nights and challenging decisions that got us this far. We've got so much still to build, and we're always hiring, so if you are interested in being part of reinventing the core of the GTM stack, please take a look at For now though, it's back to building!
