At the WebX conference held in Neo Vibe Tokyo in 2025, Zypher Network officially appeared as a sponsor and showcased its AI security and decentralized auditing ecosystem for the first time. Business leader Kiel stated at the conference: Zypher.Network is the world's first decentralized AI auditing protocol, aiming to build a secure, transparent, and verifiable trust layer for AI interactions.
Notably, Zypher Network just announced a $7 million financing before the conference, led by UOB Venture and Signum Capital, with participation from other institutions like HashKey Capital and Catcher VC. The funds will mainly be used for zk protocol stack development, AI-specific Rollup infrastructure construction, and community incentive expansion.
Building AI Trust
The widespread application of AI has brought about huge markets and risks. Research shows:
The current AI auditing market size has reached $1 billion, expected to grow to $24 billion by 2034.
68% of data breaches stem from AI misunderstandings.
Multi-agent systems have a 25% risk of coordination failure and a 15% risk of prompt injection.
Up to 30% of unpredictable outputs belong to high-risk scenarios.
Against this backdrop, the 'Trust Layer' for AI becomes a necessity. Just as SSL is for the internet, Zypher's mission is to establish underlying security guarantees for AI interactions.
Zypher Network, as the next-generation decentralized AI auditing protocol, ensures the integrity, privacy, and tamper-proof nature of AI prompts through its core 'Proof-of-Prompt' secure network. Combined with an AI secure browser and a community-driven trust layer, Zypher allows users to verify agent behaviors, submit security ratings, and earn rewards, thereby enhancing AI transparency. Since its establishment in 2023, the Zypher community has grown to over 600,000 members, covering decentralized finance AI (DeFAI), DAOs, intellectual property, and AI-native applications.
Zypher's Innovative Technology Stack
Zypher provides a complete AI security technology stack: including an AI secure browser for real-time validation, scoring, anomaly marking, and reward mechanisms; Proof-of-Prompt protocol (POP): using zero-knowledge proof technology (like Pedersen commitments and Plonk) to ensure the integrity of prompts, developer integrity, and privacy protection; Zytron AI chain: a modular chain optimized for zero-knowledge virtual machines (zkVM) and RISC-V concurrency; decentralized proof network: a community-driven proof engine that transforms AI security into shared incentives.
Zypher has built a complete AI security technology stack:
AI Security Panel: Monitoring the behavior of AI agents, real-time security scoring, and risk prompts.
RESTful API Access Layer: Providing developers with services such as prompt validation, agent security testing, and inference tracing.
zkPrompt Protocol Stack: A modular zkP verification framework supporting public and private chain verification.
Zytron Chain: Built on BNB Chain, compatible with RISC-V, designed for high-performance AI workloads.
Proof Mining Network: A community-driven decentralized proof computation and verification system.
By 2025, Zypher has achieved significant results:
Protected over 100 zero-knowledge driven AI agents.
Community size exceeds 600,000, distributed across X and Discord.
Attracting over 3 million wallets to participate, with more than 3,000 active validating nodes.
Products and Incentives: AI Mining, G NFT, and POP NFT.
AI Mining Model - Transforming 'Verifiable AI Behavior and Audit Contributions' into Mineable Assets without Expensive Hardware and Gas Costs. Users only need to complete interactions, tasks, or community validations to start 6 hours of mining, regularly check scores and receive rewards.
G NFT - The core rights credential of the community:
Open the 'Access Pass' for AI Mining.
Provides mining acceleration, special reward pools, and collaboration airdrop qualifications.
Long-term holders can also enjoy exclusive allocations for future TGE.
POP NFT Series:
Basic POP NFT: All participants can mint, serving as a Proof-of-Prompt identity credential.
Reward NFT: Airdropped to the most contributing users in activities, combining rarity with identity symbolism.
Partner NFT: Jointly issued with ecosystems like Aster AI, Secondlive, SpaceID, QuackAI, combining collection and rights value.

This event is not only a success in community participation but also a preparatory test by Zypher for the upcoming TGE.
Future Vision
Zypher Network aims to be the trust cornerstone for AI agents, just as SSL is for the internet. Supported by leading investors and partners, Zypher is paving the way for fully secured AI interactions by 2034. Zypher invites the global community to join its upcoming token generation event to shape the trusted future of an AI-driven world together.
