reason number 1 to use @ikadotxyz if you're a crypto dev:
zero-trust signatures

* this is a series of tweets for devs exploring the various value props of ika - no marketing terms, no bs, only actual technical pros and cons, honestly comparing to other options out there

**what does it mean?**
zero-trust signatures means that a signature can't be created without the user. it is a cryptographic guarantee, enforced by math, not by economic incentives or trust.

**why should you care?**
allowing a 3rd party, or a group of 3rd parties, to have unilateral control over generating a signature, means they have full authority to perform any action, and there's no way to stop them from doing it if they are malicious or compromised (hacked or rogue employee).

**what use cases is this best suited for?**
although it can be used for many use cases, including defi, from a technical perspective zero-trust provides the most value for custody use cases, especially involving non-smart contract platforms (e.g. bitcoin, zcash) and/or multi-chain custody.

**how do we do it?**
we have spent years of cryptography research to solve problems that were previously unsolved in threshold signatures, and created a new mpc protocol called 2pc-mpc, enabling zero-trust signatures by a distributed network for the first time - by requiring both a user and a distributed network to generate a signature.

read more here: https://t.co/TTp34Rw96N
and the research papers are here:
v1 - https://t.co/c3Sv5L2GhJ
v2 - https://t.co/yLn4kr9pnx

**comparison to other options**
ika is the only way for devs to generate a signature on-chain (i.e. by a smart contrat) and cryptographically require the user participation.
there are products using threshold signatures such as @FireblocksHQ (zero-trust) or @THORChain (non zero-trust), but here are the current alternatives for devs in the threshold signatures space:
1. centralized mpc wallet infra (wallet-as-a-service) e.g. @get_para or whitelabel (self-hosted) versions such as @sodot_hq offer wallet infrastructure for devs with zero-trust guarantees, but the party enforcing the policy is a centralized server, and it cannot be used as a decentralized on-chain primitive. teams like @0xHolonym are building the decentralized alternative to that (wallet-as-a-protocol) using ika's tech.
2. distributed mpc networks - networks such as icp (@dfinity), @NEARProtocol, @LitProtocol offer threshold signatures for devs but do not offer zero-trust. this means a threshold of permissioned parties (currently as far as i know about 5 in near/lit and about 23 in icp) have full control of the assets and can unilaterally sign any transaction.

**to sum up**
zero-trust signatures provide a cryptographic guarantee that nothing can happen without the user, most valuable for decentralized custody use cases, and as an on-chain decentralized primitive are only available on ika.

@0xrajendra @AlphaFiSUI @SuiNetwork @MMTFinance Why are we not able to withdraw our lending???

[Ika「🦑」 @ikadotxyz]

don’t fight it

[d3h3d 「🦑」 @d3h3d_]

building something that is centralized or not trustless is always easier than soldering decentralized and trustless

so you'll always hear things like
- no one care about decentralization
- not everything needs to be on-chain
- so what if you need to trust someone, what are the actual chances it will be exploited??

they said it about l1s and l2s and defi, now they're saying it about custody and interoperability and privacy

the north star for solving high-value use cases should remain decentralized, zero-trust, on-chain solutions based on cryptography

this is why @ikadotxyz is inevitably going to win

Just talked with @lionhead_king - he’s building something really cool on $SUI 🔥

The concept:

Fantasy football meets DeFi. Pick your lineup of tokens and compete for rewards.

Uses $IKA $WAL $DEEP $NS natively.
Gamified competition for tokens. Its a new approach for a fun predictions market. I also see a huge potential for pre-launch tokens to use this platform for hype and real engagement mechanics.

The interesting part:

We also saw him tagging @itachee_x (@RialoHQ co-founder) in a post so it looks like they’re speaking 👀

Not launched yet, but the dots are connecting in interesting ways.

If you’re into SUI ecosystem builders, give @lionhead_king a follow. Worth watching this one develop.

[d3h3d 「🦑」 @d3h3d_]

and btw, the @0xbeepit use case is a great example for one of our rfps that i discuss here:

ai agent access control framework

when you hear the vision of a beautiful and magical ai agent economy, you should always ask "who is holding the funds?"

@ikadotxyz solves that

[d3h3d 「🦑」 @d3h3d_]

looks super cool. now for the real question - who are you trusting with your money??

let's talk @0xbeepit and help you use @ikadotxyz to deliver a solution that doesn't require users to sacrifice the one thing crypto was created for - self sovereignty

[d3h3d 「🦑」 @d3h3d_]

it's weird to have to say this but crypto is a fast evolving space with a lot of noise, so we might need to say obvious stuff every now and again

there are many different approaches to decentralization (which is a spectrum with many different variables), and to permissionlessness - that's all fine.

but the most basic tenet of a blockchain is that it is a chain of blocks, cryptographically tied to one another, going back to genesis, that can be independently reconstructed and verified by any user so they don't need to trust the node operators. this is what being trustless means, if you're trusting someone else to tell you what the state is - you're not trustless. even completely centralized idiotic l2s follow that principle, because otherwise what the hell are we even doing here? just playing around with distributed compute? that's nothing new, and has been going on since the 80s.

marketing terms can be confusing but just copy this and paste it in grok:

does <insert crypto project name> meet these criteria:

1. the state runs on a chain of blocks
2. the blocks are cryptographically tied together going back to genesis
3. even if a dishonest majority signs on an invalid state, any user can independently reconstruct the entire state deterministically from genesis, and verify state validity without trusting any other entity or group of entities - not even a majority of node operators

that's it. always remember - you never need to trust anyone in web3, not even a majority of node operators.

thank you for your attention to this matter

Your home if Sui managed to get the deal with Pokémon.

[Swyke @swyke_ai]

🥩1 - You staked your $IKA on https://t.co/w6MP2oqBzn

🔒2 - You locked your $IKA until season ends on the Inksack site

😎3 - You are not bothered by short term market volatility

Also, we just passed 100 Million IKA staked to our validator 🎉

Thank you so much for your trust, big things coming 👀

[West @WestClintwood]

🦑💧So apparently lots of @solana devs are very interested in @ikadotxyz and quickly diving into building with it. Some other details around current projects on @SuiNetwork already working with @ikadotxyz are also using it with @solana were shared too.
(Will not disclose sources, sorry. My phone calls are way too juicy to break their trust)

Some very cool things are coming that will break your assumptions of crypto in a big way and change your understanding of @SuiNetwork completely. I’m very eager to tell you about them in the coming weeks and months.

I’m seeing a great love affair building between these two chains. I think they’ll become SOL mates. 🤣. Unfortunately for Solana, @ikadotxyz makes @SuiNetwork polyamorous so we should expect a huge dating pool.

( My 1of1 @ikadotxyz MF Squid Maidens NFT minted from my only MF Squid Market NFT is more than a sign that I was destined to bring you this secret. )
