Zypher 2025: Year of Escape Velocity (Autonomous Game Agents, Prover Market, Our Predictions)
Hi Zypher Gamers,2024 was a landmark year for Zypher Network, marked by impressive ecosystem building, product delivery, developer community expansion, and most importantly, establishing a clear pathway to bootstrap this new paradigm of verifiable games.
Here’s a quick recap of our 2024 milestones and a look ahead to 2025.
2024 Year in Review: From Zero to One and Beyond
Zytron Pioneer (Linea L3) Launch our rollup framework Zytron has released its first official deployment as a gasless Layer3 chain on Linea optimized for our ZKgame engines for efficient, scalable gameplay. Partnered with 50+ tech providers and 30+ games, positioning Zytron to be the web3 hub for ZK games.

A Power House for Games over 3 million users have played our games, making Zypher effectively the most-adopted ZK infrastructure in the industry. ZK’s off-chain execution & on-chain approach enables highly interoperable and VM-agnostic gameplay. We’re one of the first middleware providers to add zk support for SVM , TON VM(Cocos Creator) and other VMs.

Flagship Game Crypto Rumble The BNB Chain hackathon winner,@cryptorumble_io, is moving into production after one year of co-development with us. Crypto Rumble has completed a series of successful playtests with 500k gamers and over 5 million transactions. A tile-matching & RPG AI Game, is the first practical ZK game with verifiable in-game assets and AI Agent-powered in-game operations.

Zypher 2025 Year of Escape Velocity
2025 marks the singularity point towards an AI Agent-powered era. At Zypher, we’re committed to laying the on-chain infrastructural foundation for this future with a clear roadmap:
Distributed prover network for efficient proof generation to achieve verifiable in-game assets and data, as the key part of our ZK coprocessing solution for high performance on-chain applications agnostic to human and AI Agents;
Open framework for verifiable AI Agent deployment to enable autonomous in-game operations, with the goal to redefine the on-chain gaming ecnomoy.
Unlike most on-chain AI frameworks focused on tokenizing Agent ownership, Zypher envisions agents capable of revolutionizing gaming and high-performance applications. Below are the key initiatives shaping our journey—follow our progress on GitHub.

New Proof System Support for Big-data Game Legacy proof systems are inherently inefficient when handling the substantial data volumes typical of modern games, often incurring significant computational overhead and extended proof generation times. However, despite data volume, game data exhibits structured patterns due to the deterministic and cyclic nature of game logic loops. By leveraging new zk proof frameworks such as Nova and Expander, we can optimize generation for big-data games.

Multi-Peer Distributed System for Z4 Framework
z4 engineis a development framework for low latency and high performance by providing instant finality with customized nodes. Currently, it relies on a single-node architecture, which will be upgraded to a multi-peer distributed system, enabling multi-node support to guarantee better robustness and liveliness. Additionally, the distributed architecture will incorporate supervisory mechanisms to monitor node health and performance, enhancing system robustness and operational reliability.

Subscription-Based Payment for Prover network We’ll introduce a subscription model for using the distributed prover network to enable efficient proof generation. The subscription model will include options for upfront payment or staking, particularly suited for scenarios requiring sustained proof generation delivery, ensuring uninterrupted operations and scalability.
Open Development Framework for AI Agents The open framework for AI-driven functionalities revolutionizes the on-chain game development process. By combining standard game development methodologies with AI agent interfaces, this framework enables developers to seamlessly connect their games to AI systems via standardized protocols. Example functions under development include: dynamic game content like scenes, NPCs, and storylines; conducting realistic game testing by simulating player behaviors to ensure balance and performance; analyzing in-game data for actionable insights; and optimizing zk-proof resource allocation for efficient computation, making game development more streamlined and innovative.
Verifiable Agent Games We are developing an open framework for verifiable agent-driven games, cryptographically ensuring that AI agents strictly adhere to predefined algorithms and rules within the game. This prevents any collusion or malicious behavior among registered agents, providing truly decentralized and fair gameplay. The first game under this framework is an on-chain Ludo game (which typically involves four players). The framework supports configurations such as one human player and three AI agents, which are verified to ensure they operate transparently and without deviation from their programmed behavior.
Additionally, the framework introduces an agent rental market powered by the prover network, allowing players to rent AI agents for their games. This adds flexibility for players who wish to delegate gameplay tasks to reliable and verifiable AI agents, creating new possibilities for player engagement and enhancing the overall gaming ecosystem.
Finally, say hi to [redacted], your virtual assistant automated by
@Zypher_Network. She’ll handle my work while I play all the games :D.
# Importing from Zypher AI Framework and Eliza Agent Framework
from zypher_ai import VirtualAssistant
from eliza_framework import AI_Agent
# Initialize your virtual assistant
assistant = VirtualAssistant(name="Redacted")
# Mimicking user waking up the assistant
print("Me: Hey [Redacted], wake up!")
assistant.wake_up()
# Mimicking a user query to play Crypto Rumble
query = "Can you play Crypto Rumble?"
print(f"\nMe: {query}")
if "Crypto Rumble" in query:
print(f"{assistant.name}: Connecting to Eliza framework for advanced gameplay assistance...")
# Initialize an AI agent for Crypto Rumble
crypto_rumble_agent = AI_Agent(game="Crypto Rumble", reward_percentage=50)
# Simulate agent setup and response
if crypto_rumble_agent.initialize():
print(f"{assistant.name}: Successfully connected to Eliza framework! 🕹️")
print(f"{assistant.name}: I’ll play Crypto Rumble and share 50% of the in-game revenue with you!")
crypto_rumble_agent.start_gameplay()
else:
print(f"{assistant.name}: Oops, I couldn’t connect to the game. Let me troubleshoot!")
else:
print(f"{assistant.name}: I’m not sure how to assist with that. Let me learn more about it!")
# Hypothetical framework functions for advanced game connection
class AI_Agent:
def __init__(self, game, reward_percentage):
self.game = game
self.reward_percentage = reward_percentage
def initialize(self):
# Simulate connecting to the game server or framework
print(f"*Connecting to {self.game} server...*")
return True # Simulate a successful connection
def start_gameplay(self):
# Simulate autonomous gameplay
print(f"Agent is now playing {self.game}... 🕹️")
print(f"Earnings will be shared as agreed: {self.reward_percentage}% for you.")
