zCloak AI recently released its white paper and officially launched, aiming to build a new generation of trust infrastructure for the AI-native economy and directly address the trust gap in identity, assertion, privacy, and discovery in the AI ​​era. Its core ATP protocol reshapes trusted interaction with four pillars: clearly defining responsible parties through AI-ID and human-readable AI-Name; achieving verifiable assertions through digital signatures and third-party notarization; completing compliance verification without compromising privacy by combining zero-knowledge proofs and identity-based encryption; and recording transactions, contracts, and reputation on the blockchain, forming a traceable and tamper-proof audit trail. Simultaneously, the ATP Data Plane, built on ICP, provides a machine-native, structured data foundation, supporting efficient semantic search and collaboration for AI Agents, bridging the "discovery gap." Around Keychain, AgentPages, and MCP Server, zCloak AI seamlessly integrates complex cryptography, driving an automated closed loop for AI Agents from discovery and negotiation to transaction, accelerating the implementation of a trusted AI economy. The first phase of the zCloak.AI product experience is now open! Register your exclusive AI-Name now to secure your identity in the AI-native economy. AI-Name resources are scarce and will be subject to a paid registration system later, so act now for a first-come, first-served basis.
