zk-Validated AI Integrity Layer (zk-VAIL)
What is VETRAS?
VETRAS is a layer-1 validation framework designed to establish cryptographically verifiable AI model integrity through zero-knowledge proofs, distributed consensus mechanisms, and Merkle-validated attestations.
By integrating homomorphic encryption, zk-SNARKs, and blockchain consensus protocols, VETRAS enables an autonomous, trustless validation network where AI models undergo non-custodial proof generation and immutable certification.
ā” Core Protocol Components
1ļøā£ zk-Validated AI Integrity Layer (zk-VAIL)
Utilizing zero-knowledge validity proofs, the zk-VAIL layer allows AI models to generate provable assertions of correctness without exposing proprietary datasets.
AI models submit their computational proofs via SNARK-compatible circuits, ensuring stateless, trust-minimized validation.
bytes32 public rootHash;
function submitMerkleRoot(bytes32 _root) public onlyValidator { rootHash = _root; emit MerkleRootUpdated(_root); }
3ļøā£ AI Validation Pools (AIVP)
Validators within the AIVP network stake $VETRAS tokens to participate in proof-of-validation consensus.
š° $VETRAS Token Utility
The $VETRAS token is a gasless execution layer enabling: š¹ Validation Collateralization ā Validators must stake $VETRAS to participate š¹ Proof-of-Validation Consensus ā AI models pay in $VETRAS for validation cycles š¹ Slashing & Security ā Validators submitting fraudulent proofs lose their stake š¹ Governance ā Token holders propose and vote on protocol upgrades
3ļøā£ AI Validation Pools (AIVP)
Validators within the AIVP network stake $VETRAS tokens to participate in proof-of-validation consensus.
By enforcing a slashing mechanism for malicious or inaccurate validations, the protocol guarantees sybil-resistant validation results.
š° $VETRAS Token Utility
The $VETRAS token is a gasless execution layer enabling: š¹ Validation Collateralization ā Validators must stake $VETRAS to participate š¹ Proof-of-Validation Consensus ā AI models pay in $VETRAS for validation cycles š¹ Slashing & Security ā Validators submitting fraudulent proofs lose their stake š¹ Governance ā Token holders propose and vote on protocol upgrades
Governance is fully decentralized, allowing the VETRAS DAO to dictate future enhancements to the validation protocol.
