On Monday, the Secret Network announced via X that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Antseed, the open market for AI inference. This collaboration integrates Secret Network’s Confidential Computing into the Antseed ecosystem, allowing users to route their AI queries through verifiable, privacy-preserving nodes.
Through this partnership, Secret Network’s Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) become a primary metric in the Antseed router, enabling users to prioritize verifiable privacy when selecting a provider.
Key integration features include;
-
Privacy-First Routing: Antseed’s real-time router now includes Secret Network-backed TEE based privacy as a key scoring metric, alongside price and latency.
-
Hardware-Level Security: Users can verify that their AI prompts and model outputs remain encrypted and inaccessible to the provider, powered by Secret’s TEE infrastructure.
-
Decentralized Rewards: Providers and users of Secret-validated confidential inference can register on-chain and receive earnings automatically in $ANTS token via the Antseed protocol.
-
Zero-Friction Adoption: Developers can access Secret’s privacy-preserving inference by simply pointing their existing AI tools to the Antseed local proxy.
Secret Network is an interoperable blockchain infrastructure that aims to enable computational privacy for general-purpose smart contracts. Secret Network is a layer-1 blockchain built on Cosmos, which uses TEE technology to ensure all input, output, and state are encrypted by default. This hardware approach is the fastest and most efficient form of confidential computing. Its smart contracts are called Secret Contracts and allow decentralized applications to use private data on Secret, similar to how smart contracts operate on other blockchains. However, Secret Contracts are private by default.
Additionally, Secret Network has launched the Secret AI SDK, which uses TEE-enabled GPU hardware, integrated with the L1 blockchain, unlocking privacy-preserving decentralized AI. Secret AI allows for end-to-end encrypted LLM models and AI agents, unlocking private chatbots, DeFAI agents, proprietary AI business models, and more.
Through interoperability via Cosmos Inter Blockchain Communications standard and further integrations of Secret’s Confidential Computing Layer, it unlocks privacy-preserving smart contracts for public blockchains, including Ethereum, major EVM networks, and Solana. Making Secret Network the confidential computing hub of web3 and AI. SCRT is trading at $0.1129, up 6.1% in the last 24 hours.
