边缘区块链MIDEN获得2500万美元的种子资金，以提供以隐私为中心的基于ZK-Stark的虚拟机

区块链中的隐私一直在发展，这是竞争和审议的重要点。这是最著名的支持者是以太坊

Crypto venture capital (VC) fundings for startups are trying to make a rebound this year. So far, crypto startups in the US have raised about $861 million in Q1 of 2025.

加密风险投资（VC）的初创公司筹集资金今年试图做出反弹。到目前为止，美国的Crypto初创公司在2025年第1季度筹集了约8.61亿美元。

Majority of these fundings are going towards stablecoin and crypto*AI projects.

这些资金中的大多数都用于Stablecoin和Crypto*AI项目。

In the latest instance on Tuesday, two new blockchain projects became the centre of million dollar VC fundings in web3.

在最新情况下，周二，两个新的区块链项目成为Web3中百万美元VC资金的中心。

This includes two new blockchains, Miden – Polygon’s offshoot and IP-focused Camp Network. Miden, the Edge Blockchain, received $25 million seed funding round on Tuesday.

这包括两个新的区块链，Miden-Polygon的分支和以IP为中心的营地网络。边缘区块链米登（Miden）在周二获得了2500万美元的种子融资。

On the same day, Camp Network also raised $30M to build the autonomous IP Layer1 blockchain.

在同一天，CAMP网络还筹集了3000万美元来构建自动IP Layer1区块链。

These fundings are being seen as a bet by leading crypto ventures on Layer-1s showing technical differentiation beyond just standard EVM-compatible chains.

这些资金被视为赌注，这是在第1层上领先的Crypto Ventures，该融资仅仅是标准EVM兼容的链外，显示出技术差异。

Privacy in blockchains have been developing as a strong point of contestation and deliberations. It’s most famous proponent have been Ethereum Founder Vitalik Buterin.

区块链中的隐私一直在发展，这是竞争和审议的重要点。以太坊创始人Vitalik Buterin是最著名的支持者。

He has asked for ensuring blockchain privacy and suggested Zero knowledge roll-ups as the solution.

他已要求确保区块链隐私，并建议将零知识滚动作为解决方案。

In a move towards it, Miden – the Edge Blockchain is being built by Polygon Team and Azeem Khan, co-founder of the blockchain, as a privacy-focused blockchain.

为了迈向这一点，MIDEN - 边缘区块链由Polygon Team和Blockchain的联合创始人Azeem Khan建造，作为以隐私为重点的区块链。

It was originally incubated by the Polygon Labs team but now Miden has spun out as an independent project with this funding.

它最初是由Polygon Labs团队孵化的，但现在Miden凭借这笔资金为独立项目纺出。

Privacy Using ZKVMs: What is it

使用ZKVM的隐私：它是什么

To ensure privacy, it uses ZK-STARK-based virtual machine (VM) or Zero-Knowledge Scalable Transparent ARguments of Knowledge.

为了确保隐私，它使用基于ZK-Stark的虚拟机（VM）或零知识可扩展的知识参数。

ZK-Vms are a type of cryptographic proof system that allows a blockchain to verify the correctness of a transaction or computation without revealing the underlying data. They are post-quantum and execute transactions on smart contracts.

ZK-VMS是一种加密证明系统，它允许区块链在不揭示基础数据的情况下验证交易或计算的正确性。它们是Quantum后的，并在智能合约上执行交易。

It is this vision of Miden that saw its funding round receiving $25M in its seed funding round co-led by the crypto arm of Andreessen Horowitz along with Hack VC and 1kx.

正是Miden的愿景使其资金巡回赛获得了2500万美元的种子资金圆形圆顶，由安德森·霍洛维茨（Andreessen Horowitz）的加密货币组合，以及hack vc和1kx。

Other investors included Finality Capital Partners, Symbolic Capital and angel investors like Avery Ching, the cofounder of the Aptos blockchain.

其他投资者包括最终资本合作伙伴，象征性资本和天使投资者，例如Aptos区块链联合创始人Avery Ching。

Miden is building the “Edge Blockchain”, a new zk-powered system where execution happens on the client side, unlocking a new design space for applications that demand performance and privacy.Edge execution is the blueprint for blockchain’s final form.

Miden正在构建“边缘区块链”，这是一个新的ZK驱动系统，在客户端发生执行，为需要性能和隐私的应用程序解锁新的设计空间。EdgeExecution是区块链最终表单的蓝图。

Researcher and Developer at Polygon, Brian Seong, in a recent X post, stated, “From its roots as an early-stage zkVM, Miden has evolved into a privacy-first, parallelized, UTXO-based blockchain that’s not just innovative—it’s a pioneer.”

Brian Seong Polygon的研究人员兼开发人员在最近的X帖子中说：“ Miden的根源从其作为早期ZKVM的根源发展成为一个不仅是创新的，这是一个先驱。”

He added that the blockchain is designed for mass adoption and is aimed at tackling use cases that could redefine how we think about privacy and scalability in Web3.

他补充说，区块链旨在用于大规模采用，旨在解决可以重新定义我们对Web3中隐私和可扩展性的看法的用例。

Maiden is a standalone Layer-1 blockchain. This means that it would operate independently of Ethereum or any other base chain. This stands in contrast to many zk-rollups which would help the blockchain in avoiding the limitations and congestion risks.

少女是独立的1层区块链。这意味着它将独立于以太坊或任何其他基础链。这与许多ZK滚动相反，这将有助于区块链避免限制和拥塞风险。

Camp Funding: Blockchain in the Age of AI & IP

营地资金：AI和IP时代的区块链

Camp Network, in another new Layer-1 blockchain funding update on Tuesday secured $30 million in a Series A funding round. It was led by Paradigm with additional investments coming from various Web3-native developer platforms and node operators.

CAMP Network，在另一个新的Layer-1区块链资金更新中，周二获得了3000万美元的A系列资金回合。它是由范式领导的，来自各种Web3-Native开发人员平台和节点运营商的其他投资。

Camp is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain building for the future of AI and IP. It enables users to register and tokenize their IP onchain – giving them copyright royalties using blockchain.

CAMP是AI和IP的未来的专用1层区块链建筑。它使用户可以使用区块链注册并给予其IP Onchain的IP Onchain。

It also allows developers to train and deploy AI agents, and then participate in distributions for the use cases of these AI agents. The agents are set to be trained on their IP for transparent, and enforcable way.

它还允许开发人员培训和部署AI代理，然后参与这些AI代理的用例进行分配。这些代理将在其IP上进行培训，以透明和可执行的方式。

AI is rewriting the rules of creativity, putting all creators at risk

AI正在重写创造力规则，使所有创作者处于危险之中

As models train on content without consent and agents replace direct interaction, real value will shift from commoditized models to unique, user-owned IP and vertical AI agents fine-tuned on it

当模型未经同意而训练内容并取代直接互动时，实际价值将从商品化的模型转变为唯一的用户拥有的IP和垂直AI代理，并在其上进行了微调

Signalling Shift in VCs’ Focus?

VCS重点的信号转移？

The combined $55 million blockchain funding raised by Camp and Miden reflects a growing shift — venture capital firms are increasingly focusing on highly specialized Layer-1 chains.

CAMP和MIDEN筹集的5500万美元的耗资5500万美元的区块链资金反映了不断增长的转变 - 风险投资公司越来越关注高度专业的第1层连锁店。

In contrast to the hype-driven fundraising of 2021–2022, investors in 2025 appear more focused on blockchains showing

与2021 - 2022年的炒作驱动筹款相反，2025年的投资者似乎更着重于区块链
