Today we reached a massive milestone at Zama : bootstrapping in less than 1 milliseconds. Bootstrapping in FHE allows “cleaning” the noise in encrypted data, and is responsible for the vast majority of the computation time. Thus, the faster bootstrapping gets, the more confidential transactions per second the Zama Protocol can process. We achieved this after years of research on efficiently using GPUs for FHE. The results are MINDBLOWING: Boostrapping latency: - 2021: 53 ms - today: 0.9 ms - speedup: 56x When applied to integers arithmetics, the results are even more insane: 64 bit encrypted addition latency: - 2022: 2,000 ms - today: 8.7 ms - speedup: 230x 64 bit encrypted multiplication latency: - 2022: 13,000 ms - today: 32 ms - speedup: 400x To understand what this means in practice, lets look at confidential stablecoin transfers: - 2022: 0.1 tps - today: 230 tps - speedup: 2,300x And it’s so cheap also: about $0.0001 / transaction for a confidential stablecoin. Tldr; FHE is now FASTER than Ethereum and most L2s! And it’s only a matter of months before we can reach 1000 tps. Next steps: build an FHE ASIC to reach 100k tps by 2029. Enough to cover Visa, Mastercard and SWIFT volume combined. 🚀🚀🚀 Full post in the comments

🚨 The battle for the future of software is no longer about who can write code fastest — it’s about who owns the data and context to power AI. Generative coding agents and tools from Anysphere, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf Cognition and poolside are commoditizing software development. In this new era, context is king and data is the moat. Winners will be those who: 1️⃣ Embed deeply into workflows to capture rich, high-fidelity data 2️⃣ Engineer context precisely at inference time 3️⃣ Reinforce models through usage, not static prompts Legacy SaaS vendors face eroding moats. AI-native apps with data flywheels and contextual intelligence are rising fast. 👇 Full article in the comments. If you’re building in this space, I want to hear from you. Thank you to Jeff Haynie, Jason Warner, Çağla Kaymaz and Vedant Agrawal for providing input and feedback on this article! #AI #Software #VC #DeveloperTools #ContextIsKing #FutureOfWork

🚀 Last news, yes it is summer time and we still do deals ! We are excited to support deeptech innovation in healthcare. Better Angle is proud to join the €2.5M seed round of AUSTRAL Dx and Philippe Mendels-Flandre, alongside leading investors including SORBONNE VENTURE by AUDACIA, Aloe Private Equity, IXCORE GROUP, Kima Ventures, Super Capital, and several business angel networks (Capital Cell, Paris Business Angels, Angels Santé). Austral Dx is transforming cardio-pulmonary diagnostics with a non-contact, AI-powered medical device that delivers rapid and objective assessments in under two minutes. Their breakthrough ultrasound-based technology could reshape emergency care and help reduce ER overcrowding — a critical pain point with over 4 million annual visits related to respiratory distress or chest pain. We’re excited to back a visionary team addressing an urgent and global healthcare challenge. This is deeptech with real-world impact — and just the beginning. 👉 Learn more about their mission and technology, link in comment #HealthTech #Deeptech #CardioPulmonary #StartupInvestment #BetterAngle #MedicalInnovation #AIinHealthcare #AustralDx
