Mind Network Partners with ByteDance on AI and Crypto

The explosion of generative AI has opened up infinite possibilities, but it has also been accompanied by deep concerns about data privacy and security. Building a "Trusted AI" has become one of the biggest challenges for the tech industry. To solve this problem, a landmark partnership between a pioneering Web3 project and a Web2 tech giant has just been announced.

On July 9th, Mind Network, a platform focused on building encryption infrastructure, announced a strategic partnership agreement with BytePlus, the cloud computing platform owned by ByteDance (the parent company of TikTok). The two parties will collaborate extensively in the field of crypto AI and the trusted Agent ecosystem.

At the core of this partnership is the combination of two cutting-edge technologies. On BytePlus's side, they will open a standard API to provide their DeepSeek Large Language Model (LLM) to Mind Network. Additionally, the entire computation and verification process will be carried out on the Function Compute infrastructure provided by BytePlus.

From Mind Network's side, they will bring their unique technology: Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). This technology allows computations to be performed directly on encrypted data without ever needing to decrypt it. This means the entire process, from user input data to the AI model's output, is protected, providing the foundation for many future secure DeFi applications.

This collaboration is not just theoretical. Mind Network will also integrate its MCP (Model Context Protocol) component into ByteDance's platforms, including BytePlus and the Coze agent platform. This integration will provide default encryption and on-chain verification for AI Agents. Notably, it will support secure operations within enterprise ecosystems like Lark (ByteDance's work-suite tool), making Mind Network the first infrastructure provider to implement FHE services on Lark.

Mind Network is pioneering the construction of quantum-resistant FHE infrastructure. Their vision is to promote a "fully encrypted internet" through secure data computation and AI. By partnering with industry leaders like ByteDance, they are setting new standards for trusted AI and the processing of crypto data.
