I recently looked into a pretty interesting infrastructure project: Space and Time (SXT).

Has anyone ever wondered about this? AI can help us analyze market trends, DeFi can execute trades automatically through smart contracts, and RWA can bring real-world assets on-chain.

But all these applications share one major challenge: if the underlying data can't be trusted, even the most advanced technology may be built on incorrect information.

That's exactly the problem Space and Time aims to solve.

Its core technology is called Proof of SQL. Using zero-knowledge proofs (ZK), it enables developers not only to query data, but also to cryptographically verify that the query results are correct.

Put simply, it upgrades “you tell me what the data is” to “you give me the data along with proof that I can verify.”

I believe this technology is valuable in three areas:

① AI: Making intelligent decisions verifiable
In the future, AI agents may participate autonomously in on-chain financial activities. Using cryptographically verified data could help reduce risks caused by data tampering or incorrect queries.

② RWA: Making asset tokenization more transparent
Bringing real-world assets on-chain involves more than just issuing a token. It also involves information such as asset records, transaction histories, and reserve data. Space and Time can provide infrastructure support for querying and verifying this information.

③ DeFi: Giving smart contracts stronger data-processing capabilities
DeFi protocols need to process large volumes of historical on-chain data. With Proof of SQL, complex computations can be performed off-chain, and the results can then be verified on-chain, supporting more sophisticated data-driven applications.

Of course, verifying that a computation is correct doesn't mean all the underlying data is inherently accurate. The source of the data matters too.

Personally, I believe this is a promising direction:
The long-term development of Web3 isn't just about creating more assets, but also about making data, computation, and execution increasingly transparent and verifiable.
