Pectra upgrade is live on @ethereum!
It provides enhanced smart wallet UX, 2x L2 scaling blobs, and improved validator UX.
2/
.@VitalikButerin published an article explaining plans to simplify the L1.
The post outlines a way forward to simplify the Ethereum protocol, accepting short-term costs for long-term benefits.
3/
.@Google adopted zero-knowledge technology to enable age verification through Google Wallet.
Its approach combines the @ligero_inc ZK system and the GKR protocol. This work was pioneered by a paper published in late 2024, Anonymous Credentials from ECDSA.
4/
.@RiscZero has introduced Steel 2.0, a ZK-coprocessor for the EVM.
It offloads execution offchain, where you can aggregate data, run complex logic, and compute over multiple blocks and historical state, returning a small proof onchain. EVM contracts verify it with constant gas, regardless of computation size.
5/
.@ProjectZKM announced zkMIPS 1.0: The first production-ready version of its MIPS-based zkVM.
This upgrade boosts zkMIPS 0.3.0 performance with new architecture, optimized proving, memory checks, chip decomposition, and precompiles for a simple, stable, scalable real-time verifiable computation foundation.
