On Monday, the Secret Network announced via X that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Praxis, an innovative platform building a decentralized mesh for AI agents. This collaboration integrates Secret’s technology to provide AI agents with a secure, confidential, and verifiable execution environment.
Through this partnership, Praxis will leverage Secret Network’s Confidential Virtual Machines (Secret VMs) to enable agents to operate within Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). This allows users to deploy AI agents with provable integrity, ensuring that the agent’s logic remains untampered, while maintaining absolute privacy for the data being processed.
By integrating Secret’s technology, Praxis agents will benefit from:
-
Provable Integrity: Cryptographic proof that agents are executing exactly as intended.
-
Data Privacy: Confidential compute capabilities that protect sensitive user inputs from exposure.
-
Decentralized Compute: An optional layer of decentralized execution to remove single points of failure.
-
Seamless Integration: Full compatibility with the existing Praxis agent mesh for identity and payments.
The partnership will focus on technical implementation over the coming months, allowing Praxis developers to easily opt-in to Secret-powered confidential environments for high-stakes agent operations.
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 $0.09109, down 1% in the last 24 hours.
