The #EthereumFoundation launched #zkAPI, a privacy-preserving framework letting users pay for #AI models without revealing identity. Combines zero-knowledge proofs with onchain settlement. Opens institutional AI pricing on Ethereum rails. #DeFi #crypto
❗️The Ethereum Foundation, in collaboration with the Open Anonymity Project, has introduced zkAPI — a system that allows users to pay for the use of artificial intelligence models and other APIs without revealing the payer’s identity.
#Ethereum #zkAPI #OpenAnonymity
#zkAPI launched on October 1, and I barely see anyone mentioned about it. Because I think it’s more important than we think.
zkAPI is the missing payment layer, and one of the rare times the Ethereum Foundation shipped something with real use case.
The Foundation usually sits a few layers back from the user: research, clients, standards, grants, tooling.
zkAPI takes a shorter path. The February idea from Vitalik and Davide Crapis became a mainnet vault, a client, a server, and a chat app.
It solves one concrete problem. An AI API today ties a key to an account, the account to a card, and a year of prompts to one profile.
zkAPI splits that apart.
– You deposit ETH or USDC once. The balance becomes a private note only you can spend.
– Your machine generates a proof that the note is funded, without showing which note.
– The server issues a short-lived key with a spending cap. When it expires, the note is charged.
– The provider still reads the prompt. The payment server only knows the session is valid and what it cost. The chain only sees the deposit and the withdrawal.
It matters because agents will call models constantly.
A signed wallet transfer on every request leaks the strategy. zkAPI does not hide the content but it hides the billing record.
Exit does not depend on the server, because the vault verifies the proof itself. The protocol is still experimental, and a public deposit still links your wallet unless you shield first.
What projetcs catching that narrative? 👇🏻
1/ ETH catches the settlement layer. Deposits and gas sit on mainnet, and zkAPI has no token of its own to absorb that narrative.
2/ @RAILGUN_Project | $RAIL is the closest to the money path. If you want to fund the vault without a public address on the deposit, you shield through Railgun first. The 0.25% fee sits on that step, and the pool is already in the Kohaku SDK.
3/ @aztecnetwork | ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 is closer to the headline than to billing. https://t.co/CXEqawGcOP just came back, hiding balances and counterparties once funds are inside the L2
4/ @zama | $ZAMA: FHE lets a contract compute on encrypted data, which is not a payment note. It only belongs here if zkAPI gets stretched into Ethereum encrypts inference
5/ @Zcash | $ZEC is the liquidity proxy. A privacy bid usually hits it before RAIL or AZTEC, even though ZEC is not in this stack.
Today the EF and OA announce zkAPI—a new means for private AI
Picture this: deposit ether into a vault, sign a zk proof, get a fixed amount of private inference. Advances like these help us move past middlemen's requirements that we link our data and identities.

zkAPI can hide who paid for an AI request—but the provider may still see what you wrote and network clues. Payment privacy is not content privacy.
⚠️ AI visuals may be used for supporting scenes.

#zkAPI #Ethereum #AIPrivacy #ZeroKnowledge #CryptoPrivacy
zkAPI is live on Ethereum mainnet. Users deposit once, then prove API usage can be paid without revealing which deposit funded it. The provider sees requests; payment sees spend, but neither sees the link.
Privacy can come from separating data flows.
#zkAPI #ZeroKnowledge
📊Ethereum Foundation launches zkAPI, using zero-knowledge proofs for prepaid API payments without linking requests to billing identities.
It supports AI APIs but does not hide prompts from providers.

币圈有两种数字要看清，隐私保护到哪一层，损失追回到哪一步。
以太坊基金会 @ethereum 10月1日宣布 #zkAPI 已在主网上线，用零知识证明把付款身份与具体API调用拆开；但AI服务商仍能看到提示词，IP和内容指纹也不在保护范围内。
Term Finance @term_labs 同日披露 USDC损失池约163.86万美元，已追回约98.71万美元，若剩余Repo Token足额兑付，两类存款人的预计总回收率分别为87.8%和64.1%。
截至该公告，尚未追回被盗 $ETH ETH池可分配资金仅来自获救Repo Token的兑付。
我的看法是匿名要看边界，回款要看到账宣传里的 （能 ）不能替代账上的（有）

@kenziyuliu @OpenAnonProject @ethereumfndn @VitalikButerin @DavideCrapis @VittoStack @curryrasul Cool! Since #zkAPI is a project in collab with @ethereumfndn why does it require a google sign in instead of a metamask ??
🔥 @Ethereumfndn announces the launch of zkAPI
#EthereumFoundation has launched #zkAPI, enabling users to pay for #AI models and other metered APIs while keeping their identities private. The Foundation developed zkAPI with the Open Anonymity (OA) Project, an open-source AI privacy initiative, and has deployed it on #Ethereum mainnet. To use zkAPI, users must deposit ETH or USDC into an Ethereum vault, where their balance is recorded as a private note. zkAPI then uses zero-knowledge proofs to verify payments without revealing the underlying deposit.
A zkAPI server verifies the zero-knowledge proof and issues a temporary API key with a spending limit. Users send prompts directly to the AI provider, while usage is deducted from their private balance once the key expires. Each payment also generates a unique nullifier to prevent double-spending without revealing other information.

🚨 TODAY: Ethereum Foundation and the Open Anonymity Project introduce zkAPI, letting users pay for AI and other metered APIs privately using zero-knowledge proofs, now live on Ethereum mainnet.
OPEN ANONYMITY PROJECT, CO-DEVELOPED BY ETHEREUM FOUNDATION, LAUNCH ZKAPI FOR PRIVATE API PAYMENTS AND AI INFERENCE: BLOG
#zkApi is going to expose a myriad of useful APIs for projects and developers!
*What will it include?*
• File scanning APIs
• URL scanning APIs,
• Phishing detection
• And more!
Most endpoints will include synchronous and Asynchronous versions to support as many use cases as possible!
Let us know what you're looking for in the API and which bindings you would like to see first! 🐝🛡️
