NovaNet is a peer-to-peer, folding-based zero-knowledge proof network built for verifiable compute, privacy, and agentic commerce, co-founded by Wyatt Benno and Houman Shadab. NovaNet's Twitter Score is 17 out of 1000 as of October 2026, ranking #57,365 among 498,071 tracked accounts.
NovaNet closed a $3 million seed round led by Finality Capital Partners, with participation from Arrington Capital, Avalanche Foundation, Builder Capital, Caballeros Capital, Scott Moore, and several other backers. The project is also affiliated with ICME Labs and the ZkBoost consortium.
NovaNet operates a zkVM grounded in non-uniform incremental verifiable computation, derived from the SuperNova proving scheme. Its architecture combines folding schemes, lookup arguments, WASM execution, and cooperative decentralized proving, with support for ONNX models to enable zkML workloads. Orchestration smart contracts live on Ethereum, while verifiers can run on Ethereum, Avalanche, Solana, Internet Computer Protocol, or a standard web server. Proof requesters burn network tokens to commission proofs, and new tokens are minted to compensate the provers who fulfill them.
NovaNet has demonstrated trustless agentic-commerce applications on Arc, integrating Circle's Compliance Engine API to show real-world viability for privacy-preserving agent transactions. NovaNet's account has published 1,173 posts and has been mentioned by 22 accounts a total of 726 times, reflecting active engagement within the zero-knowledge and verifiable compute communities.
