We’re excited to announce a partnership with Lunal, the fastest way to deploy applications in Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), offering zero configuration, guaranteed privacy, automatic scaling, and verifiable computation.

As Nexus continues to build the world’s most powerful zk-powered supercomputer, ensuring privacy and integrity for sensitive workloads is essential.

Through this partnership, we’ll deeply integrate Lunal’s TEE tooling across our zkVM and broader ecosystem, unlocking new capabilities for developers, enterprises, and institutions building high-stakes applications.

Bringing trusted execution to the Verifiable Internet

Lunal’s cutting-edge software and infrastructure allows any code to run inside secure enclaves, with data protected not just from attackers, but even from the infrastructure itself. For the Nexus zkVM, this means that inputs can remain confidential, even from node operators, Nexus, and Lunal.

This collaboration enables:

• Private-by-default computation: TEE-backed execution ensures zkVM input data remains invisible to all intermediaries.
• Secure validator operations: Nexus Layer 1 nodes can now run inside attestable enclaves, preserving integrity while mitigating internal threats.
• Provenance you can trust: zkVM outputs can be tied directly to source code and specific GitHub commits, ensuring full traceability and developer accountability.

Confidential compute meets global scale

By uniting Nexus’s verifiable computation model with Lunal’s confidential compute infrastructure, we’re enabling a powerful new class of applications that combine privacy, performance, and verifiability, without compromise.

From private AI to encrypted DeFi and enterprise-grade infrastructure, this partnership makes it possible to deploy secure, verifiable computation on encrypted inputs across a globally distributed network.

Join us in scaling the Verifiable Internet

Nexus continues to collaborate with best-in-class compute providers to unlock applications across AI, blockchain, and verifiable computing. Get in touch if you’re building something that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible.
