馃攼 Encryption Deep Dive
馃攼 Web3's Secret Weapon
SKALE School is hosting a live discussion on encryption's critical role in blockchain technology.
Featured Guests:
- Dean Stefan (@_deanstef) from Nethermind
- iFalcore and TheGreatAxios as hosts
Event Details:
- When: Tomorrow at 9am PT / 5pm UTC
- Where: Live on X (Twitter)
- Topic: Why encryption is fundamental to Web3 and blockchain systems
The session will explore how encryption underpins blockchain security and functionality. Without proper encryption, Web3 applications would lack the trust and security mechanisms that make decentralized systems viable.
Join the conversation to learn about the technical foundations that power blockchain networks.
Web3 without encryption? Good luck. @_deanstef from @Nethermind joins @iFalcore and @TheGreatAxios to unpack what makes encryption so critical to blockchain! Join us live on SKALE School tomorrow 9am PT / 5pm UTC on X
SKALE School Episode 7 Explores Web3 Encryption with Nethermind
**SKALE School** continues its educational series with Episode 7, focusing on **encryption in Web3** alongside blockchain development firm **Nethermind**. The episode covers: - Core encryption principles in blockchain technology - Security implementations for decentralized applications - Practical encryption use cases in Web3 development This follows previous SKALE School sessions on encrypted onchain gaming, demonstrating the network's commitment to **developer education** and security best practices. The educational content targets developers building on SKALE's **zero gas fee** infrastructure, providing technical insights for secure dApp development.
Thirdweb Calls x402 the Universal Standard for Internet Payments
**Thirdweb's Joe defines x402 as the universal standard for internet payments** in SKALE School Episode 7. The session covered: - **Pay-per-use model shift** from traditional subscriptions - **Building payment rails** for autonomous AI agents - **x402 implementation** using HTTP 402 status codes Key benefits include: - Instant micropayments for API calls, data, and services - **Gasless transactions** on SKALE's zero-fee network - **Agent-friendly payments** without wallet complexity **Why it matters:** As AI agents become more prevalent, they need seamless ways to pay for resources autonomously. x402 enables this by turning the web into a native payment layer.

BITE Protocol Whitepaper Released: A Consensus-Layer Solution to MEV
The BITE (Blockchain Integrated Threshold Encryption) Protocol whitepaper has been released, introducing a novel approach to eliminate MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) attacks that have cost users nearly $2B since 2020. Key features: - Implements threshold encryption at consensus layer - Encrypts transactions before mempool entry - Decryption occurs only after finalization - No reliance on secondary networks The protocol's roadmap includes: 1. Transaction encryption 2. Smart contract data protection 3. Selective disclosure capabilities 4. Fully homomorphic encryption integration Read the whitepaper: [BITE Protocol Whitepaper](http://skale.space/BITEWhitePaper)
