Decentralized AI gets a boost as Zypher and HeLa Labs collaborate
In a groundbreaking collaboration, Zypher Network and HeLa Labs have announced their partnership to reshape the decentralized technology landscape. This partnership, announced in July 2025, seeks to create AI-native, scalable, and interoperable decentralized infrastructure [1][2].
Zypher Network, a decentralized protocol specializing in zkAI mining, is integrating with HeLa Labs, a modular Layer-1 blockchain developed alongside Singapore’s A*STAR IHPC. This integration leverages HeLa Labs’ modular architecture to boost Zypher’s infrastructure, enhancing the autonomy, scalability, and smart contract compatibility of its AI agents [1][2].
The partnership reinforces Zypher's privacy-focused mission by incorporating HeLa Space’s zk identity technology and trustless execution environments. This combination provides secure, verifiable, and privacy-preserving interactions for developers and users engaging with AI agents, ensuring strong user control over identity and data across chains [1][2].
The collaboration aims to establish a multi-chain compatible, scalable network that supports intelligent and autonomous AI agents operating efficiently across decentralized systems. The goal is to build a privacy-enhanced, trustworthy decentralized infrastructure aligned with the demands of next-generation Web3 applications, enabling transparent and secure cross-chain interactions without compromising user trust or data privacy [1][2].
The partnership also intends to lay the foundational groundwork for a decentralized, interoperable, and massively intelligent Web3 ecosystem that can meet the growing demand for AI-native services and solutions [1][2]. This future Web3 is envisioned to be smarter, more secure, and truly interoperable, supporting the deployment of tokenized AI agents across various domains, including DeFi, gaming, and real-world use cases.
The collaboration between Zypher Network and HeLa Labs is poised to advance AI in the blockchain ecosystem by promoting cross-chain compatibility, enhancing technical competitiveness, and reducing friction for developers building in AI-first blockchain environments. The resulting architecture is expected to be scalable and resilient, capable of adapting to the evolving requirements of the AI-driven Web3 landscape.
In summary, this partnership is a significant leap forward in the quest to build intelligent, decentralized systems that can function efficiently in a multi-chain landscape. The collaboration between Zypher Network and HeLa Labs is set to push the limits of what's currently possible in decentralized AI, fostering new innovations and interoperability in the decentralized technology space [1][2].
