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...
AlignedAligned Manifesto
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...
AlignedWhat are ZK-SNARKS?
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...
We accelerate the roadmap of Ethereum by making proof verification faster and cheaper. We can verify proofs for 10% of the cost.

✨ ZK-Newsflash! ✨
Here are the highlights of what happened in the ZK space last week, 10th - 16th June.
Our Co-founder and Head of Research, Diego Kingston, gave a fascinating talk on hash-based proof systems at ZuBerlin. 📒
The talk delved into various aspects, including proof sizes, the benefit of not requiring trusted setups, and more.
Build on Starknet and get rewarded! 🖥️
June 13 kicked off Starkhack, organized in collaboration with ETHGlobal, offering $150,000 in prizes.
This is a free online hackathon with many opportunities for builders.
Catnet: A custom Signet network that provides an environment for testing Bitcoin applications with the OP_CAT functionality enabled. ⚡
Here Abdelhamid Bakhta offers us the explorer.
Polygon Community Grants - Season 01 is here! 📢
1 Billion POL unlocked over a decade in community grants program for Polygon builders
Applications are now open!
The Blockchain Trilemma: scalability, decentralization, and security. Can we have it all? ⛓️
zkSharding could be the answer.
=nil; Foundation has a great resource explaining how this technology tackles the challenge.
Cool paper to read. 📗
Helger Lipmaa explores shortening the argument of the Groth16 zkSNARK for R1CS, proposing Polymath: Groth16 is not the Limit.
This opens up exciting possibilities for future applications.
Fascinating material posted on Bitcoin Magazine. ⚡
A conversation between the team at The Rollup and Orkun Kilic, co-founder of Citrea.
Educational content about building Bitcoin's first ZK rollup.
We shared an interesting Space with our partner Fluent. 🟩
Participants included:
✅ Roberto Catalán, Co-founder of Aligned.
✅ Diego Kingston, Co-founder and Head of Research of Aligned.
Lambda Hack Week 2 is almost here! 💻
4 days of hacking. Don't miss the chance to meet some of our team!
To provide educational material, we're offering a series of threads on various ZK-related concepts. 🧠
This thread focuses on ZK-SNARKs, exploring their origins and key advancements that led to today's technology.
