Zero Knowledge
Commitment to aligned intentions with succinct communication is power.
Zero Knowledge cryptography is an essential pillar to engineering trust into generative technology.
Concepts
Proof of knowledge can be used to prove that something is true with zero knowledge to protect privacy.
ZK Snark: Uses the proof of knowledge function to prove transactions are valid, and uses the zero knowledge function to protect input witnesses in the circuit (preventing leaks and forgery).
| Stage | Value |
|---|---|
| Proof of Knowledge | Validate Truth |
| Zero Knowledge | Retain Privacy |

L1 Blockchain
Layer Twos
Blockchain Scalability: Zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups improve throughput by transferring computation and state storage off-chain. A ZK-rollup submits transaction data to Ethereum along with zero-knowledge proofs verifying the validity of off-chain transaction batches.
