Quick Look at High-Speed ZK Proofs with $LAZero-Knowledge (ZK) proofs rely on complex math, but the proving system chosen drastically affects performance.
The @Lagrange Official team uses a cutting-edge system tied to Plonky3, built for one key thing: speed.Imagine a ZK proof as a high-speed snapshot of a blockchain’s state. You need a fast, clear camera to capture it without blur. Older ZK systems were like outdated cameras slow and reliant on costly hardware like GPUs, making proofs expensive and sluggish.
Plonky3 is like a state-of-the-art mirrorless camera:Fast: Optimized for standard CPUs, it eliminates the need for pricey hardware. A complex state proof takes under 150 milliseconds, crucial for real-time apps like cross-chain DeFi.
Recursive: It excels at recursion, like zipping thousands of smaller proofs into one. This lets Lagrange compress an entire blockchain’s state 100+ million transactionsinto a single, compact, verifiable proof.
This high-performance system enables Lagrange to connect blockchains securely, with minimal delays or costs.
