Succinct Labs has announced the launch of SP1, a production-ready zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) that promises significant improvements in performance and cost-efficiency. According to the company, SP1 is up to 10 times faster and cheaper than existing solutions, particularly for workloads like rollups. The benchmarks conducted by Succinct Labs indicate that the proving costs for average Ethereum blocks are just a few tenths of a cent per transaction. This development is expected to accelerate the adoption of ZK rollups, with every rollup potentially becoming a ZK rollup using SP1. The announcement marks a significant step forward in the zero-knowledge space, with further advancements anticipated in ZK proof verification.
At @KakarotZkEvm we want to make ZK-technology more accessible to engineers outside the field. Recently there's been a debacle on "who implemented ZK-Precompiles first". Well, @malatrax has been writing great content on the CairoVM and it's builtins ๐
A new long-read talking about zero-knowledge property in a nutshell! I had a feeling that we give a lot of attention to SNARKs. But we've hardly ever dedicated enough space to talk about ZK (that turns SNARKs into ZK-SNARKs). Fixing this now!! ๐งต๐ https://t.co/0xWnUvUnF6 https://t.co/a8hcXdVUuN
We're bringing you zero-knowledge in a nutshell. In our latest blog, we cover the history of #zk technology and explore the intricacies of how the tech has evolved since 1989 -- when its first paper was published. Click the link to read more โฌ๏ธ https://t.co/MdjXnJmHqB https://t.co/foIX94UHFW
