Zypher Network, a provider of decentralized infrastructure for AI systems, has provided $ 7 million in financing. The round was led by Uob Venture and Signum Capital, with the support of Hashkey Capital, Hong Leong Group, Cogitent Ventures, Catcher VC, Hydrogenesis Labs, DWF Venture and others.
The funds will support the further development of Zypher’s Zero-Knowledge (ZK) protocol stack and infrastructure for AI agent rollups. Zypher’s purpose is to offer tools that make public verification of AI agent behavior possible without exposing private data. This is becoming increasingly important because autonomous AI agents are being taken over in industries such as customer service, finance and robotics.
The core product of Zypher is ‘proof of prompt’, a protocol comparable to ZKTLs that verifies AI prompts without revealing sensitive input or output. It is delivered via a Rest API and is designed to support AI use with legal activities, financial services and other automated systems.
The infrastructure is supported by Zytron, the Layer-2 rollup of Zypher on the BNB chain, which also supports “evidence of mining”, making distributed ZK calculation possible.
The Zypher tools are already integrated with other blockchain and AI projects, including Eliza Os, Io.net, Risc Zero and own layer. A new campaign to support decentralized agent verification will be expected soon.
