1/ One of the topics I kept hearing about in #ETHDenver was #zkTLS– and as a zk enthusiast, I (@alydotxyz) decided to do some digging to share with the rest of the world. Transport layer security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol used in secure communications over a computer network (i.e., credit card details, login credentials, email messaging, etc.). Before encrypted communication begins, a TLS handshake is performed between a client (a web browser) and a server. This handshake will then establish the encryption keys and security settings for the session. The protocol then requires verification of client and server identities in order to access the data. Essentially, TLS is used to securely encrypt data across networks. zkTLS involves zero-knowledge proofs and TLS. In its simplest form, zk proofs are used to prove something is true without revealing the sensitive data (inputs). I won't be excessively covering zkp's, but feel free to check out the resources I’ll link at the end of the thread! @DeFiMinty has an amazing diagram which offers a comprehensive overview of zkTLS:

This past week some of our education members read the "Introducing Verifiable Agents on EigenLayer" article by @eigencloud and Head of AI (@nima_vaziri) and here's a summary of what we learned. AI-driven agents are changing how we interact with digital applications, offering personalized, autonomous, and verifiable experiences. But most agents today rely on centralized infrastructure, limiting transparency and user control. Bringing agents onchain makes them censorship-resistant and verifiable, but it introduces a major challenge: cost-efficient execution. Running agents securely on chain is expensive, even with L2 scaling solutions. This is where EigenLayer comes in. Built on Ethereum, EigenLayer enables restaking, allowing users to secure multiple services with the same staked assets. By extending Ethereum’s security to new applications, like onchain agents, it creates a shared trust layer, making these agents cheaper, scalable, and decentralized. So how does this all come together? Let’s dive in some more 👇
