During India Blockchain Week, co-CEO of o1Labs, Deepthi Kumar, made the case for a future where verification doesn’t require surrendering your data — and how Mina makes that possible.
Some key takeaways from her talk:
🔹 Every verification today creates a data copy — and every copy becomes a liability. 🔹 ZK proofs flip the script: prove facts without exposing personal data. 🔹 Client-side proving is the future, where data never leaves your device and no honeypots are created. 🔹 Permissionless verification matters: anyone should be able to check a proof — on a phone, in a browser, without trusted intermediaries. 🔹 With Aadhaar and DigiLocker, India is uniquely positioned to leapfrog toward privacy-preserving digital infrastructure. 🔹 Mina enables public verification with private execution.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the recent on-chain vote!
We’re happy to share that all 4 Mesa MIPs have passed 🥳
✅ MIP6 - Reduce slot time ✅ MIP7 - Increase on-chain state limits ✅ MIP8 - Increase Event and Action Limits ✅ MIP9 - Increase Account Update Limits
These MIPs will require a hard fork of the Mina Protocol for implementation, and as such, will be incorporated into the Mesa Upgrade, scheduled for next year!
Mina stays a 22KB, verifiable L1 for ZK settlement. Zeko adds an isomorphic ZK rollup for instant UX + high throughput—so zkApps can scale without sacrificing security.

It’s getting impossible to tell what’s real online — and that’s a massive problem.
Proof-attached media is the only path forward.
TouchGrass is a proof-of-concept from O1Labs showing what verified media could look like.
If you’re working on authenticity, sensor data, or proof-attached content, Mina is the perfect lightweight, neutral settlement layer for these proofs to anchor on.
@zksecurityXYZ recently completed Mina Attestations, a standard and library to create proofs of personal credentials in a secure and private manner. Currently supporting native and imported credentials, Mina Attestations has been audited by @hackenclub.
Last year, @MinaFoundation announced a collaboration with Mirae Asset Financial Group, a global investment firm, to develop a PoC integrating Mina’s ZK tech with Mirae’s tokenized securities platform.
A developer release of Security Token Offerings Privacy Extension (STOPE), a framework that allows users to privately and securely prove asset ownership, has now been released by Mirae.

After concluding an audit by @VeridiseInc, the standard is ready to use, to create and manage NFTs on Mina Protocol.
Builder @dfst_io has been cooking– they delivered the standard alongside an NFT marketplace (@minanft_io) AND a no-code Custom Token Launchpad for Mina 🤯
This NFT standard allows for flexible minting mechanisms, built-in marketplace functionality, plus special ZK privacy features!
