Among the angel investors are Remco Bloemen from World (formerly Worldcoin), Zac Williamson, Joe Andrews, and Kev Wedderburn from Aztec.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The funding round was structured as a combination of Simple Agreements for Future Equity (SAFE) and SAFT.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Vlayer is developing a &#8220;verifiable data infrastructure,&#8221; referring to it as a new version of Solidity. The project&#8217;s goal is to enable Ethereum smart contracts to interact with real-world data.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, four new features will be introduced:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Time Travel \u2014 execution of smart contracts using historical on-chain data;<\/li>\n<li>Teleport \u2014 deployment of contracts across multiple EVM-compatible networks;<\/li>\n<li>web proofs\/zkTLS \u2014 verification and integration of web content, including <span data-descr=\"interaction interface\" class=\"old_tooltip\">API<\/span> and websites;<\/li>\n<li>email proofs\/ZK Email \u2014 access and verification of email content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\n<cite>\u201cWe offer access to additional verifiable data sources directly through Solidity code. This means that ZK will finally be realized as something familiar and easy to use for any Solidity smart contract developer,\u201d noted Vlayer CEO and co-founder Hubert Rachwalski von Reichewald.<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to him, the project takes a holistic approach to key data sources, integrating web proofs, email proofs, and storage proofs. Meanwhile, other projects typically focus on just one of these areas.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\n<cite>\u201cFor web proofs, you should know zkPass or Reclaim Protocol. For email proofs, you can use ZK Email directly, and for storage proofs \u2014 Axiom, Lagrange, or Brevis,\u201d added Reichewald.<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He expressed confidence that after exploring the capabilities of Solidity 2.0, developers will abandon working with the previous version. As AI develops and the use of dapps expands, the need for verifiable, reliable data will only increase, emphasized the head of Vlayer.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the platform is in alpha version.
