We live in an era where we can no longer trust what we read, see, or even hear. Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence have accelerated the production of illusory content. Fake news and alternative facts are displayed in all formats, for any purpose, from personal vanity to political propaganda. At the same time, global internet freedom is falling, as critical content is increasingly censored, and replaced with deepfakes and disinformation. This situation, combined with our heavy depen...

We are excited to announce the launch of our third testnet, marking a significant advancement in the adoption of zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs on Ethereum. This is our first public testnet open to third party operators for our EigenLayer AVS. We invite you to work with us towards our goal of accelerating the Ethereum roadmap by making the implementation of ZK proofs both easy and economical. By reducing the complexity and cost of verification, Aligned will establish ZK as the default solution fo...

The Sumcheck protocol is an efficient tool to develop succinct arguments. It is relied upon by many proof systems, such as Lasso/Jolt by a16z crypto, HyperPlonk, Binius, Spartan, and GKR. Sumcheck was first proposed by Lund, Fortnow, Karloff, & Nisan in 1992. The sumcheck protocol is an interactive protocol working over multivariate polynomials, that is, polynomials in many variables, such as p(x1,x2) = 1 + x2 + 5 x1x2 + x1^6. The prover tries to convince the verifier that the sum of all the ...

SNARKS have gained considerable attention recently due to their broad utility in areas such as blockchain scalability, identity mechanisms, verifiable machine learning, and fighting against misinformation and fake news. We see new developments daily, but SNARKS have been around for a long time. SNARKs allow one party, the prover, to prove to another, the verifier, that a given computation was computed correctly.Key Properties of SNARKSZK-proofs are not a recent invention. The definitions, fou...
