TLDR; FHE for Restaking and AI/Depin Networks

Restaking is a rather genius idea for both users and networks. By leveraging Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), Mind Network introduces an FHE Restaking Layer built upon the restaking framework to further scale consensus security.AI projects and systems are growing exponentially. AI compute demand is doubling every 3.5 months. By adding FHE validators to a Proof of Intelligence (POI) consensus mechanism, MindLayer adds better capability and high security to AI systems in Web3.

An FHE Restaking Layer

Mind Network is one of the first tokenized startups to implement FHE within Web3. It is designed as a FHE computation network and brings Zero Trust principles to on-chain data security. Built upon its core FHE computation network, Mind Network introduces an FHE Restaking Layer to secure AI and DePin networks with cutting edge FHE techniques. Collaborating with the best-in-class partners, Mind's FHE restaking solution is structured with three interconnected layers:

• Restaking Layer: we support a variety of security appetites with a range of restaking tokens. Partnering with industry leaders like EigenLayer, StakeStone, Renzo, Babylon, Ankr, and more, we bring security from best-in-class networks like Ethereum and Bitcoin through restaking tokens. We are also integrating with our strategic partners like Chainlink CCIP and Connext to offer remote restaking across different networks. Our well-received product, MindSAP (FHE + Stealth Address), is natively supported in order to protect privacy and security for onchain and cross-chain transactions.

• FHE Security Layer: we believe the path to ensure ownership in Web3 is end-to-end encryption, which is especially critical to data intensive networks like AI or DePin networks. We introduce FHE enhanced validators to ensure end-to-end encryption for the validation and consensus computation process. This computation is fully decentralized and the owner of FHE validator could opt-in to different networks and earn their rewards. Security will be further improved by the integration with our modular fhEVM partners Fhenix and Inco.

• Consensus Layer: Mind Network introduces a novel Proof of Intelligence (POI) consensus mechanism specifically designed for AI tasks, ensuring fair and secure reward distribution among FHE validators, which provides a robust framework for secure and transparent execution of actions within the network. Furthermore, Mind Network is launching a rollup chain with AltLayer, EigenDA, and Arbitrum Orbit, which will further enhance consensus computation with lower cost and faster performance.

Scaling Security for AI and DePin Networks

The integration of artificial intelligence into Web3 poses additional critical security challenges regarding the protection of data and models. Mind Network spearheads efforts to address these challenges through its innovative consensus mechanism.A Proof of Intelligence (POI) consensus mechanism ensures fair and secure reward distribution among network validators, called the FHE Validator, which provides a robust framework for secure and transparent execution of actions within the network.Mind Network's innovative approach to bolstering Web3's AI security is centered around the integration of an FHE-powered POI consensus mechanism, which fosters enhanced security, fair reward distribution, and efficient AI service validation processes. This integrated approach aims to drive innovation and scalability in the AI and blockchain domains, empowering users with control and privacy in a decentralized ecosystem.FHE computations are also accelerated via GPUs. Novel AI projects, like Io.net, offer a decentralized network for distributing GPU power. We envision that Io.net's platform will lower the barrier for AI development, making it easier for AI startups to leverage high power AI computation via GPU farms from around the world.
