Mar 13, 2024тАв2 min read
If you have zero knowledge about zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), this episode is for you.
For this session, Social Block host Magy made it her prerogative to learn more about ZKPs, exploring what they are from a technical standpoint, as well as their use cases. To help her, she had ZKM.ioтАЩs Pavel Sinelnikov who specializes in the development of zkMIPs solutions, and took the time to unpack the complexity of a technology that is finding crucial application in the blockchain space.
Episode #16: Zero Knowledge & the Future of Trust
In this episode, Magy and Pavel started with a breakdown of ZKPs as a technology, and then moved on to its applications and more philosophical questions:
тЭУDid you know zero-knowledge proofs can be used for more than just privacy? (Magy didnтАЩt).
ЁЯдФCan zero-knowledge proofs prove anything?
ЁЯШ▒Types of zero-knowledge proofs тАУ i.e. interactive vs. non-interactive, zkSTARKs, zkSNARKs.
ЁЯзйUse cases for ZKPs specifically for blockchain тАУ think Layer 2s, batching, rollups, and lower gas fees.
ЁЯкРHow zero-knowledge proofs can change the concept of trust in the future.
