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.

⚡ Core Protocol Components

1️⃣ 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.

function validateAIModel(bytes32 _modelHash, uint256 _proof) public returns (bool) {
    require(zkVerifier.verify(_modelHash, _proof), "Invalid AI Proof");
    emit AIModelValidated(_modelHash, block.timestamp);
    return true;
}

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); }

3️⃣ AI Validation Pools (AIVP)

Validators within the AIVP network stake $VETRAS tokens to participate in proof-of-validation consensus.

// Some codemapping(address => uint256) public validatorStake;

function stake(uint256 _amount) public {
    require(_amount >= MIN_STAKE, "Stake too low");
    validatorStake[msg.sender] += _amount;
    emit Staked(msg.sender, _amount);
}

💰 $VETRAS Token Utility

The $VETRAS token is a gasless execution layer enabling: 🔹 Validation Collateralization – Validators must stake $VETRAS to participate 🔹 Proof-of-Validation Consensus – AI models pay in $VETRAS for validation cycles 🔹 Slashing & Security – Validators submitting fraudulent proofs lose their stake 🔹 Governance – Token holders propose and vote on protocol upgrades

3️⃣ AI Validation Pools (AIVP)

Validators within the AIVP network stake $VETRAS tokens to participate in proof-of-validation consensus.

solidity mapping(address => uint256) public validatorStake;

function stake(uint256 _amount) public {
    require(_amount >= MIN_STAKE, "Stake too low");
    validatorStake[msg.sender] += _amount;
    emit Staked(msg.sender, _amount);
}

By enforcing a slashing mechanism for malicious or inaccurate validations, the protocol guarantees sybil-resistant validation results.

💰 $VETRAS Token Utility

solidity contract Governance {
    mapping(uint256 => Proposal) public proposals;

    function vote(uint256 _proposalId, bool _support) public {
        require(proposals[_proposalId].active, "Proposal inactive");
        proposals[_proposalId].votes[msg.sender] = _support;
        emit Voted(msg.sender, _proposalId, _support);
    }
}

Governance is fully decentralized, allowing the VETRAS DAO to dictate future enhancements to the validation protocol.

🚀 Roadmap

🔹 Phase 1 – Mainnet Deployment

$VETRAS token launch on DEX
zk-VAIL activation & Merkle attestations live
Validator onboarding & testnet staking

🔹 Phase 2 – AI Model Marketplace

Dev access to validated AI models
Validator expansion & collateral increase
Advanced ZKP aggregation for scalability

🔹 Phase 3 – Enterprise & DeFi Integrations

Onboarding institutional AI developers
Cross-chain liquidity expansion (ETH, SOL, BASE)
CEX listings & liquidity partnerships

🌍 Why VETRAS?

🔹 Cryptographic Integrity – AI models validated via zk-SNARK proofs 🔹 On-Chain Transparency – Fully immutable model attestations 🔹 Scalable & Secure – Slashing + staking ensures validator accuracy
