🧵1/6
@VitalikButerin called it in Jan 2026: the real fight is taking back lost ground in computing self sovereignty. Stop waiting for one perfect primitive and start composing imperfect ones.
So we stopped arguing ZK vs TEE and shipped both. @zkPass proves what is true with VOLE-based ZK and VOLE-in-the-Head, generating verifiable proofs that never expose a user's raw data. TEE proves the verifier ran honestly.
Two layers, two different failure modes, zero overlap.
Here is how we deleted Byzantine consensus from the verifier stack entirely. 👇
1. Stocks will all be tokenized
2. Bonds will all be tokenized
3. Funds will all be tokenized
4. Real estate will be tokenized
5. Private credit will be tokenized
6. Commodities will be tokenized
7. Treasuries will be tokenized
8. Art will be tokenized
9. Collectibles will be tokenized
10. Infrastructure will be tokenized
11. Insurance will be tokenized
12. Company shares will be issued onchain
13. Stablecoins will become the default rails for moving money
14. Every major financial institution will have an onchain product
15. Every major asset manager will have tokenized products
16. Financial markets will trade 24/7
17. Settlement will move from days to seconds
18. Ownership will become programmable
19. Collateral will become composable
20. Assets will move across borders without traditional financial plumbing
21. The distinction between crypto and finance will keep disappearing
22. Tokenized assets will become normal for the average investor
23. Billions of people will eventually interact with tokenized assets without even thinking about it
24. The majority of financial assets will eventually have an onchain representation
25. Tokenization will become so normal that we stop calling it tokenization
Privacy has been declared dead for years, mostly because the internet was built around copying data everywhere.
That’s not a privacy problem. it’s an architecture problem. The next internet should prove more and reveal less.
Today, @Deviumvip, built with @zkPass, joins the 2026 Global Digital Economy Industry Development Summit in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam 🇻🇳
Devium is tackling a key challenge in the AI era: how to make real-world Web2 data usable and verifiable without exposing the underlying sensitive information.
By turning private data into cryptographic proofs, @zkPass helps projects like Devium build more trusted data flows for AI and digital applications.
As AI depends on increasingly high-quality data, verifiable data is becoming a core part of the infrastructure.
Excited to see the Devium team bring this vision to the global stage.
Proof, not exposure.

You can usually tell a market is coming back before the charts do.
People start shipping again, weird ideas stop sounding stupid, and suddenly everyone remembers why they were here in the first place.
JUST IN: President Trump agrees to CLARITY Act ethics restrictions covering himself, elected officials and judges, with state attorneys general given enforcement authority removing the final obstacle to Tuesday's Senate vote.
this is actually insane, these types of things sound inconvenient but they can lead to home invasions and losing millions
at this point, it should be made literally illegal to do anything but ZK-based KYC if KYC (which doesn't work) must be done
we have the tech
Most breakthrough infrastructure wins by disappearing into an existing workflow.
Regulators don't need a new "crypto identity" category. they need the same compliance guarantees with less sensitive data sitting around.
if ZK wins here, users may never even know they're using it.
The Revolut story (thanks @zachxbt for bringing us to our attention) is a good time to bring back zkKYC.
Prove what’s required without exposing a passport, selfie and home address every time. Zero-knowledge should mean less personal data to collect, retain and hand over.
Who’s building this at scale today? I remember working on it.

What’s the current state of play and why those players are not getting adoption during those years?
We audited 15 public agents from @8004_scan using https://t.co/qXoyhMdGoN, and not a single one demonstrated a declared skill.
Across 74 skills listed on 74 agent cards, we sent one live request to each. Zero clean passes. The MCP side performed better: 78 tools were called, and 27 actually returned what they promised.The median score was 76. The top score was 91.
That gap between what an agent claims on its card and what its endpoint can actually do is exactly the problem we’re building for.
Payments give agents economic agency.
Reputation gives everyone else a reason to trust them.
Glad to be building both sides of that equation with @Canza_Finance.
Before one agent calls another, it needs more than a name and a list of capabilities.
https://t.co/HeooZ0zLzn brings creator information, activity, user feedback and available audit records into a profile that can be inspected before the call.

FICO scores people.
onchain reputation can score people, businesses, agents, and eventually anything that transacts on the internet.
credit is becoming internet-native.
