Nillion just launched our new core tech, Covenants.

In a sentence, they enable encrypted smart contracts on any chain.

Multi-year roadmap:

[CKH @claire1307]

@JohnAlanWoods Let’s go! 👏💪🔥

[John Woods @JohnAlanWoods]

We are extremely proud to publicly share our multi-year roadmap for Nillion’s revolutionary new core platform - which replaces the Blind Computer.

Nillion Covenants are here.

Delivered over 7 eras, it’s going to transform the ecosystem: decentralised, P2P, & quantum resistant.

Might need privacy..

BREAKING:

Europe is considering Ethereum as the settlement layer for a Euro stablecoin.

Not a pilot. Not a sandbox test.
Real financial infrastructure. For sovereign money.

Public blockchains are being assessed for sovereign-grade settlement.

Transparency. Uptime. Security. Now policy considerations.

The ECB's Christine Lagarde said Bitcoin would never enter European reserves.

Now Europe is evaluating Ethereum to settle the Euro itself.

UBS chose Ethereum.
BlackRock chose Ethereum.
Franklin Templeton chose Ethereum.

Now potentially the European Central Bank.

This is not about hype.
This is about who controls the financial rails of the future.

And Ethereum just entered the sovereign conversation.

Slowly, and then all at once.

Fact Friday – @nillion

This week’s spotlight is on Nillion, a privacy-focused network building what it calls the “Blind Computer”, a system for private compute, private storage, and private AI, designed to let developers use sensitive data without exposing it.

Here is what you need to know:

Phase 2 Upgrade Is Live:

Nillion rolled out a unified developer portal, bringing nilDB, nilCC, and nilAI into one interface. It also shifted to a credits-based access model, introducing Stripe payments for nilAI usage, making it easier for developers to build and deploy in production.

Blacklight Verification Layer Is Live:

In February, Nillion launched Blacklight, its verification layer on Ethereum L2. Community-run Blacklight nodes verify workloads across the network, adding a public validation layer to Nillion’s private compute stack. This bridges private computation with transparent verification, a key step toward trustless privacy infrastructure. Anyone can stake 70,000 NIL and run a Blacklight node to earn rewards. Nillion later expanded access with managed nodes, lowering the barrier to participation.

ERC-8004 Agent Validation:

Nillion also introduced what it describes as the first verification layer for ERC-8004, allowing Blacklight to validate whether registered agents are live and responding onchain. Rather than treating agent registration as a one-time status, Blacklight adds continuous verification over time, improving accountability and transparency for onchain agent systems.

Nillion Migrated to Ethereum:

Nillion moved NIL from its Cosmos-based nilChain toward Ethereum as part of its L2 architecture shift. This move brings staking, verification, and node participation closer to Ethereum’s liquidity and application ecosystem. At the center of this transition is NIL. Previously more tightly scoped within the Blind Compute, it is now positioned as a core coordination asset across the network, underpinning verification, incentivizing node participation, and supporting emerging validation layers like Blacklight.

Onchain finance needs threat-resistant privacy

→ Real-world & institutional finance cannot move onchain without privacy
→ To prevent misuse (e.g. laundering of hacked funds), the only viable solution is to build threat-resistant privacy

Most people building in blockchain are standing on the shoulders of Silvio Micali's work, whether they know it or not.

A Turing Award winner, MIT professor, and one of the foundational figures of modern cryptography, Micali has spent decades thinking about consensus, trust, and the mathematical foundations of secure systems. When he speaks about where public blockchains need to go next, it's worth listening carefully.

At a time of global turmoil and great challenge, we look for signs of hope in the everyday.

To Irish people and friends of Ireland everywhere, we wish you a very happy St Patrick’s Day!

The nilChain will halt on March 23rd.

If you’re still holding $NIL on Cosmos, you must migrate to Ethereum now.

After the halt, standard transfers will no longer be possible.
