Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has urged researchers to join the Poseidon cryptographic analysis program as the network evaluates switching to the Poseidon hash function. The new initiative aims to enhance Ethereum’s zero-knowledge proof (zk-proof) capabilities, a critical aspect for verifying ...

Data shows the Ethereum co-founder has nabbed the highest share of “KOL mindshare” on X this week, posting about Ethereum’s roadmap and defending from Ethereum critics.

Blockchain developer ShardLab has rolled out a new web application aimed at simplifying voucher distribution in the form of NFTs. ShardLab, a blockchain arm of web3 venture capital firm Hashed, has unveiled a web application leveraging account abstraction (AA) and…

It follows a public letter from ZK researchers and top industry experts slamming the firm for “oppressive behavior.”

The paper, released in 2014, lays the foundations for blockchain privacy and scaling.

The convergence of ZK-proofs and decentralized identity systems could create more compliant privacy-preserving protocols, without sacrificing user privacy.

The Ethereum co-founder expects “many more improvements” in binary-field-based proving techniques in the months ahead.

Ethereum scaling remains the primary use case behind zero-knowledge proofs according to a report from ZKValidator.

As an emerging technology, how can zero-knowledge proofs remedy many issues across the crypto space?

Three computer scientists in Germany have established a new crypto-based, non-profit company in Switzerland called Zero Sync Association. The goal is to help scale bitcoin using what are known as zero-knowledge proofs (ZK-proofs), which have already been hard at work through networks like ETH. Zero ...
