Technology & Innovation - Mind Network is building HTTPZ, a "Zero Trust Protocol" for the next-gen internet [1] - HTTPZ ensures end-to-end data encryption during transit, storage, and computation using Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) [1] - FHE enables Agentic AI security and on-chain data privacy for Real World Assets (RWA) [1] Partnerships & Rewards - Mind Network is a member of Chainlink Build [1] - Chainlink Rewards Season 1 is live, with eligible LINK token stakers able to check their "Cubes" [1] - Cubes can be allocated to Mind Network's FHE infrastructure [2]

RT c-node (🛡️,💫) (@colludingnode)it's true that MPC, tFHE, and TEEs let you build private applications that aren't otherwise possible with just ZKhowever, the strength of the privacy is much weaker. use pure ZK if possible for your use-case, e.g, for payments, transfers, voting. ...

Efficiency Metrics in Cryptography - The industry suggests reporting cryptographic overhead as a ratio of in-cryptography computation time versus raw computation time [1] - This ratio provides a hardware-independent measure of efficiency loss when using cryptographic applications instead of trust-dependent ones [1] - Overhead factor aids developers in estimating cryptographic computation time based on their existing knowledge of raw computation time [1] Challenges in Overhead Measurement - Measuring overhead is complex due to heterogeneous operations in execution and proving, especially with SIMD/parallelization and memory access patterns [2] - Despite imperfections, the industry believes overhead factor remains a valuable metric [2]

Web3 & Encryption Technology - dWallet Labs introduces REFHE: Fully Homomorphic ALU, a new FHE scheme [1] - The scheme natively supports both arithmetic and logical operations on 64-bit machine words [1] - This is a step toward treating FHE not as a circuit model - but as a real compute model [1] Company Focus - dWallet Labs (the team behind Ika) released a paper on encryption [1] Industry Impact - Web3's brightest gigabrains are building on Sui [1]
