The (Zero-Knowledge Proof) Singularity Is Near
This month may well be remembered as an inflection point in the acceleration toward real-time proving of transaction validity for blockchains.
Polygon's New ZK Proving System, 'Plonky3,' Comes as Open-Source Toolkit
Proving systems are a crucial component at the heart of blockchain ecosystems, allowing secondary "rollup" networks to confirm transactions on a base chain like Ethereum. Polygon's prior version, Plonky2, was released in 2022.
Layer-2 Network Starknet Gets Ethereum Virtual Machine With Zero-Knowledge Proofs
The zkEVM, called Kakarot, already in testing, will be available via the Starknet Stack.
Venture Firm A16z Releases Jolt, a 'Zero-Knowledge Virtual Machine'
The release is the product of a16z's first foray into deep tech research.
New Technology Will Have Institutions Lining Up for Crypto
The zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine enables real world asset tokenization on a far greater scale, says Colin Butler at Polygon Labs.
Polygon Stops Work on 'Edge,' Used to Build Dogechain, as Focus Turns to ZK
Polygon Labs, a developer of scaling networks for Ethereum, has shifted toward "Polygon CDK," a blockchain-development kit powered by zero-knowledge cryptography. The older "Polygon Edge" was used by Dogechain, in an unofficial effort to build a Dogecoin-oriented smart-contracts network.
Chainlink Data Feeds Available on Polygon zkEVM
Developers building on Polygon’s zkEVM will be able to incorporate these data feeds into their on-chain applications.
Cronos, Partner of Crypto.com, to Start Layer 2 Network With Matter Labs
The new "Cronos zkEVM chain" is launching initially as a test network, based on Matter Labs’ software tools, which can be used to spin up new layer 2 and layer 3 “hyperchains” atop Ethereum.
Scroll zkEVM Launches, Blockchain Data Shows, Competing With Polygon, Matter Labs
The new Ethereum layer-2 network's debut adds to the competition among rival providers of so-called "zkEVMs," including Polygon and Matter Labs.
Coinbase’s Chosen Blockchain Brand Sees Zero Threat from Zero Knowledge
Many Ethereum aficionados have predicted that the most promising layer-2 blockchains would be built not using the OP Stack’s “optimistic rollup” technology – favored by the U.S. crypto exchange Coinbase – but with a different setup known as “ZK rollups,” reliant on "zero-knowledge" cryptography.
