An AI audit found the worst kind of bug a zero-knowledge protocol can have. Zcash patched it before anyone knew. “I did a bunch of AI-driven audits of different parts of the Zcash code. Basically, every time a new model comes out, run a standard set of queries across the Zcash codebase.” “Opus 4 comes out from Anthropic, and then finds the worst… what is called, in the parlance of zero-knowledge, a soundness vulnerability.” “It’s a very benign-sounding term for basically the worst possible vulnerability you could have in a zero-knowledge proof protocol, which is you can forge a proof, and therefore you can create money from nothing.” “So it got patched fairly quietly, and then after it was patched, Zooko wrote a blog post… this is what this vulnerability meant and how bad it could have been.” ft. @zmanian, @sudo_ml, @DeFi_Dad & @Nomaticcap

The 2026 ZK Industry Report found proving advances focused on: → Pushing prover time toward parity with native execution. → Agentic competitions like @yukonresearch and @zksecurityXYZ finding new efficiencies. → Moving to hash-based, post-quantum proof systems. Read more 👇

"We need to understand way better what institutions need and want on a blockchain, and then build something for them. I also think that it must be on a public permissionless network." ~ Our co-founder @schmiddominik1 discussing Miden and institutional adoption at @EFDevcon

Since my post a few weeks ago on zero-knowledge proofs of ML-DSA signatures, several new works have appeared, and I also missed a few things at the time. So here’s a short update with some references.

This is amazing. The same ZK tech that powers @Aztec is now available for all Ethereum liquidity on the @etheconomiczone. Trade privately on Uniswap and make private Ethereum mainnet transfers at a fraction of the cost. Check it out: Huge thanks to the @NoirLang team, you’ve done a fantastic job!

u will scroll 500+ tweets today but won’t read 10 pages of whitepaper that's why i am turning the NEAR investment thesis into an X timeline building this one for @NEARProtocol hackathon, btw what r u all cooking for this hackathon?
