Why User-Owned AI Matters More Than Ever with Sreeram Kannan

Welcome back to another episode of EigenLayer Unlocked. Today, we are exploring a side of AI x crypto that often goes under the radar: its potential to be a foundational layer for AI coordination and collaboration. This podcast live from Singapore takes us through the building blocks of how crypto rails could unlock a more secure, collaborative, and efficient AI ecosystem, alongside EigenLayer founder Sreeram Kannan. The conversation starts with the basics: crypto's ability to act as a coordination layer. In essence, we’re talking about using blockchain to manage and structure the activities of autonomous agents in a way that’s both transparent and resilient. Sreeram built the entire vision of EigenLayer with the idea of self-enforcing commitments, which is very applicable to AI. Think of human DAOs making decisions about how AI models operate, providing oversight while keeping everything distributed and not controlled by top down tech companies or worse, governments. This isn’t just about avoiding traditional regulators; it’s about creating a system that’s tailored for the positive widespread usage of AI from the ground up. The big takeaway? There's a short window right now for the crypto community to act. We’re at a point where the intersection of crypto and AI could establish a secure, global infrastructure for tomorrow’s AI. If we capitalize on this “transitory period,” we can ensure that the best AI developments run on crypto rails—embedding ethics, loyalty, and security into models that are only set to get more complex as large AI companies become more and more powerful. Let’s dive into how crypto rails could build a foundation for AI that’s as resilient as it is forward-thinking.

Why ZK Will Power Crypto's Next Killer Apps with Lagrange

Welcome to episode 16 of EigenLayer Unlocked. We’ve got a lot to cover, and we’re excited to share some insights from our recent technical talk focused around ZK coprocessors with Ismael from Lagrange. The “internet of proving” is a network where ZK proofs are the centerpiece of all blockchain interactions onchain. We discussed the rise of proof markets onchain, why Lagrange is building their own prover network, and why they have decided to build their tech stack as an EigenLayer AVS. Lagrange is one of the earliest AVSs on EigenLayer, powering their prover network. We touched on their technical choice to build a double auction mechanism—an efficient way to match ZK proof buyers and sellers, making sure the market remains as steady as possible while keeping costs low for applications and consumers of ZK proofs. We also discussed some particular topics around liveness, economic security, and where the reliance on EigenLayer comes into play. If you're curious about ZK proofs, economic security, and efficient network design, this technical talk is for you.

How Inco Is Bringing Privacy Onchain using FHE

Welcome back to Eigenlayer Unlocked for episode 15. Today, we’re exploring a concept that has intrigued cryptographers for decades but is now edging closer to practical use onchain — Fully Homomorphic Encryption, or FHE. We had the pleasure of speaking with Remi Gai from Inco, who walked us through how FHE is making its mark in crypto. Just recently, they announced a partnership with Circle as well to use FHE with Circle's stablecoin offerings. Think of FHE as the ability to perform computations on encrypted data without ever decrypting it, its better than *just* using ZK or MPC. Inco’s universal confidential computing network is looking to tackle one of blockchain’s biggest features, yet at the same time one of the biggest challenges: overwhelming transparency. By allowing developers to build with encrypted types and perform private computations directly onchain, they’re opening up new opportunities for usecases which just won't have PMF in a truly open, transparent environment. Think about your mortgage details. Or you car loan. Or your bank account. The conversation also dove into the unique blend of FHE with Cosmos SDK and how dual-staking with EigenLayer could bring an additional layer of security and guarantees through restaked ETH. We discussed the low level network architecture to blending privacy, performance, and scalability in a way that keeps things transparent, yet confidential where needed. So whether you’re curious about private AMMs, secure payrolls, or even onchain gaming, this discussion will give you a fresh perspective on how FHE could be a core part of the future blockchain stack.

Why Movement Is Going All in On MoveVM

gmove. Welcome to back to another studio podcast from Singapore for EigenLayer Unlocked! Today's pod is with Rushi Manche, co-founder of Movement Labs. We discussed the moveVM, Rushi's community building strategy and the testnet. We also explored how regions like Southeast Asia and LATAM are leading the way in everyday crypto adoption, while the USA is trying to get its footing with regulation. On the more technical front, we discussed Rushi's thesis on the shared sequencing layer, M1. Movement’s shared sequencing approach plays a crucial role for the development of their Move stack. Another key takeaway was the importance of user feedback during Movement’s testnet phase. They learned valuable lessons about quality control, third-party integrations, and how to improve the user experience by making onchain interactions smoother and easier for non-crypto natives. Overall, this was a very dynamic conversation and we even had a special guest, Jack Niewold to ask some questions. Enjoy.

Is Shared Security A Myth? With Toghrul Maharramov

Welcome to episode 10 of EigenLayer Unlocked, for a much more broad overview of what shared security really is, how to think about the concept of shared security, and where EigenLayer fits in. Following up on his earlier thoughts around modularity being a meme, we decided to bring Toghrul on to discuss his mental model for shared security and restaking. In the crypto world, shared security is often misunderstood as a term. In today's presentation, Toghrul walks us through why the lack of full shared security isn’t necessarily a bad thing, and how it opens up more opportunities for experimentation across L2s, restaking protocols, and other onchain systems. He also made a point to define the four key characteristics of shared security as it relates to cryptoeconomic systems. We touched on the idea of avoiding full interdependence amongst two separate systems which means individual failures are isolated, ensuring the wider ecosystem remains secure. However, this also breaks the core messaging for shared security, lending itself to a "partial shared security" terminology. Overall, this was a really good talk and towards the end we got into usecases, risks, and how Toghrul is viewing the restaking landscape. Enjoy.

Everything You Need To Launch An AVS With Othentic

Welcome to episode 8 of EigenLayer Unlocked, for a deep dive into the core infrastructure you need to launch an AVS. Othentic’s journey started with building their own AVS, and along the way, they faced every complexity imaginable. So, they created the Othentic Stack, making it easier for builders to get their AVSs off the ground without having to reinvent the wheel. So, what exactly is an AVS? Think of it as a decentralized computing service that performs complex tasks off-chain while verifying the results on-chain. This approach aligns with Ethereum's modular roadmap, where computations are offloaded to reduce onchain load, yet still securely validated. Unlike rollups, which focus on state transitions, AVSs are ideal for services where computation needs validation without the need for continuous state agreement. AVSs open doors for a variety of use cases—from oracles to machine learning models. Othentic simplifies the entire setup, letting teams focus on their core products while the stack takes care of everything on the infra side. Our chat also explores how AVSs differ from rollups and why this distinction matters for developers choosing between the two (or better yet, use both!). With more than 30 builders already using the Othentic Stack, it’s clear there’s a lot happening here. If you're a builder looking to launch an AVS, you need to speak to Othentic. Enjoy.

How Espresso Aims To Solve The L2 Fragmentation Problem

Welcome to Episode 7 of EigenLayer Unlocked, where we’re exploring the concept of cross-chain composability -- and in particular, the fragmentation of the modular ecosystem. This is the key to unlocking the full vision of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap facilitating coordination between different chains, and Espresso is at the forefront of making it happen. Robbie had a very technical conversation with Ellie, a researcher and engineer at Espresso, who shared insights into how their protocol is addressing one of the modular ecosystems biggest challenges: bringing true composability to rollups and app chains. Espresso’s approach centers around a sequencing marketplace and a fast finality layer. These two products enable different rollups to coordinate sequencing without sacrificing their sovereignty. Rollups can sell their sequencing rights through a combinatorial auction, allowing them to maximize revenue while still maintaining control over their operations. The addition of EigenLayer’s restaking mechanism further enhances this process, simplifying sequencing while leveraging Ethereum’s strong economic security for guarantees. Fast finality is another key feature of Espresso, reducing latency for cross-chain transactions. Their consensus protocol, Hotshot, ensures transactions are finalized in less than four seconds, providing strong guarantees for atomic cross-chain operations without waiting for Ethereum settlement. Espresso’s marketplace also ensures that sovereignty is preserved by redistributing auction proceeds back to the rollups (if you watched the ASS podcast, then you know we are extremely bullish on redistributing this to apps). Rollups can set floor prices to ensure they’re always getting the revenue they deserve, even if they opt to sequence themselves. This piece will give you a detailed look at how Espresso is rethinking composability and making appchains a more viable option in the current semi-isolationist reality we live in onchain today.

The Next Evolution of Crypto App Experiences with Lagrange

Welcome to the 5th episode of EigenLayer Unlocked! Today’s pod, live from Singapore, dives into the evolving world of onchain incentives and how projects like Lagrange are setting the stage for more interactive, long-lasting, personalized crypto experiences. We got to hear from Ismael, Gajesh Naik, and Luca Netz on this special episode. Lagrange’s ZK coprocessor is redefining how data flows between apps, enabling active reward distribution that goes beyond traditional airdrops. This isn't just about rewards; it's about keeping users engaged, offering continuous incentives, and building features that crypto enthusiasts have long been waiting for (which we are all used to in Web2). We discussed Lagrange’s collaborations with projects like Azuki, leveraging the coprocessor to deliver more dynamic, real-time incentives that mirror the engagement models from Web2. The ability to integrate onchain applications with these tools opens doors for everything from cashback rewards to personalized offers, bridging the gap between crypto and everyday consumer habits. In the chat, the team explained how they’re tapping into deeper layers of user behavior, creating integrations that align with each community's needs. We really enjoyed this insight into the next era of crypto apps. Enjoy!
