Boundless to Connect Ethereum and Base with Bitcoin
The Boundless team, developing ZK-infrastructure from RISC Zero, has introduced a method for using Bitcoin to verify resource-intensive zero-knowledge proofs.
Proof Without Exposure: Why Zero-Knowledge Becomes Crypto’s Privacy Line
Blockchains still sell “transparency,” but users increasingly experience “traceability.” Today, that gap stops being philosophical and becomes infrastructural.
Ethereum Foundation Views ZK-Technologies as the Cornerstone of Network Evolution
The future of Ethereum hinges on the integration of ZK-proofs into its core protocol, says Ethereum Foundation researcher Xiao-Wei Wang.
What is zkEVM?
A zkEVM is a smart-contract runtime that supports zero-knowledge proofs and is fully compatible with Ethereum.
ZKsync to Cease Support for Its First Ethereum-Based Rollup
The developers of ZKsync have announced plans to discontinue support for ZKsync Lite, an Ethereum-based rollup utilizing zero-knowledge proofs.
Dogecoin to Enhance Capabilities with ZK-Proofs
Developers of DogeOS have proposed adding support for ZK-proofs to Dogecoin. The OP_CHECKZKP initiative aims to transform the blockchain from a payment system into a platform for DeFi, gaming, and other on-chain applications. The DogeOS team is also behind the MyDoge wallet, which boasts over 500,000 users. The upgrade will allow computations to be verified […]
Vitalik Buterin versus ‘training wheels’: what scaling should look like in 2025
In November 2022 Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin published a post on the evolution of scaling solutions. He urged rollup teams to standardise their decentralisation milestones and introduced the notion of “training wheels.” In September 2024 Buterin returned with a call for a unified vision of the Ethereum ecosystem and the removal of centralising factors. He […]
Buterin Revises Approach to Mentioning L2 Solutions
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin announced a change in his approach to mentioning L2 solutions. Starting next year, he will publicly discuss only projects that have reached the “stage 1+” level. I take this seriously. Starting next year, I plan to only publicly mention (in blogs, talks, etc) L2s that are stage 1+, with *maybe a […]
Scaling from zero: how ZKPs are evolving in 2024
Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) are among the most revolutionary technologies in cryptography. The concept emerged in the mid-1980s, but only recently found real-world use. ForkLog recaps how the breakthrough came about, what ZKPs look like in 2024 and what future awaits the projects building them. What is a ZKP? A ZKP is a protocol that lets […]
