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, 9th - 15th September.
Alignoors, we're excited to share our Roadmap for Q3-Q4 with you! 🚀
✅ Fast mode.
✅ Aggregation mode.
✅ And many more.
After months of hard work, our first product is almost ready to be launched on mainnet.
All the details are in the linked tweet.
o1Labs shared an interesting article about Mina’s proof system, (Re)introducing Kimchi. 💜
Learn about the proof system that powers Mina’s succinct blockchain and delve into its technical details.
A fantastic read.
The first RISC Zero proof has officially been verified on Starknet Sepolia! ✅
This marks a big milestone in giving Starknet devs more flexibility in how they build.
Congratulations to RISC Zero and Starknet!
Ingonyama introduced zkDL++, a novel framework designed for provable AI. 🎉
It improves the watermarking system developed by AI at Meta, solving the problem of needing to keep watermark extractors private to avoid attacks.
ZK is spreading everywhere.
Herodotus posted an article about how Storage Proofs enable cross-chain governance with Snapshot X, the new onchain voting protocol from Snapshot.
It explores:
✅ What Storage Proofs are.
✅ How they work within Snapshot X.
✅ And why they’re a game-changer for DAOs.
Fabric Cryptography and Polygon Labs are collaborating to accelerate the AggLayer. ⚡️
The collaboration focuses on developing real-time ZK proofs for the AggLayer with Fabric’s Verifiable Processing Units (VPUs).
Very interesting initiative!
Succinct Labs introduced OP Succinct.
Upgrade any OP Stack chain to use ZKPs in just 1 hour with SP1.
With OP Succinct, you get:
✅ Fast finality.
✅ Cost-effective proving.
✅ Excellent dev experience.
✅ And more.
In a pretty interesting post on EthResear.ch, Youssef El Housni presented Fake GLV.
A method allowing for efficient scalar multiplication on elliptic curves without needing an efficient endomorphism. 🤯
Read the full post to learn more.
Another amazing ZK Podcast is now available! 📢
In this episode, Anna Rose and Tarun Chitra chat with Andrew Miller.
The conversation covered a range of interesting topics: consensus, ZK, MPC, and of course, TEEs.
