The R1CS & QAP Blueprint for zk-SNARKs | From Zero to Deku
This beginner friendly article is an extended version of Vitalik’s article on Quadratic Arithmetic Programs. We will provide a deeper technical dive on how to transition from a Problem to R1CS and from R1CS to QAP. As mentioned by Vitalik, “zk-SNARKs cannot be applied to any computational problem directly; rather, you have to convert the problem into the right “form” for the problem to operate on. The form is called a “quadratic arithmetic program” (QAP)”Along with the process for converting ...

SumCheck Protocol | A Love Story between a Prover and a Verifier
IntroductionHow can a Prover convince a Verifier that he can accurately compute the sum of the evaluation of a function $$g$$ over all possible inputs $${ 0,1 }$$ ? Let's say the Prover has a function $$g$$ that takes several binary variables, $$b_1,b_2,…,b_l$$, where each variable can only be either $$0$$ or $$1$$. The goal is for the Prover to convince the Verifier that he can compute the sum of the function $$g$$ evaluated on all possible combinations of these binary inputs correctly ...

Multilinear Extensions Part I | ZKP
Let’s be real—there’s nothing worse than gridding through a long-ass article only to realize you’ve spent 20 minutes getting to the good part. So, here’s the deal: before we dive in, we’re giving you the why. Why are multilinear extensions a big deal in the world of ZKPs? Because trust me, they are. This article cuts through the noise and gives you everything you need to understand them—without endlessly searching the internet or looping through videos (like I did). I’ve got you covered. Read...

I’ve spent three years in Web3, watching the technology mature and the infrastructure for a billion users slowly take shape. But one problem still threatens everything — and it’s getting worse.
Most newcomers have no idea how this ecosystem works. They chase hype, follow influencers, and invest in projects they don’t understand. When they lose, they don’t know why. When they win, it’s luck — not strategy.
The market has become a circus of memecoins, pump-and-dumps, and manipulation. Scammers prey on the uninformed, and large players move prices at will. This isn’t a string of accidents — it’s a structural flaw.
I’ve seen millions wiped out — not from greed, but from ignorance. They were never given the tools to navigate this space. Web3 was meant to empower them, but instead, it’s failing them — driving people away and giving the entire ecosystem a bad reputation.

I started EulerPhi out of frustration — frustration at watching billions flow into hollow Web3 projects with no intrinsic value. Memecoins, hype-driven protocols, and fleeting trends were getting funded, while truly groundbreaking teams — the ones building technology that could reshape industries — were overlooked and underfunded.
The thought that kept echoing in my mind was: “If only I could redirect that capital toward the builders who actually deserve it.”
The problem is simple but profound: most people are not technical. They can’t easily distinguish between a protocol destined to change the world and one destined to disappear. And so, they follow the noise — not the value.
I wanted to change that. I wanted to create a place where investors, whether retail or institutional, could find the protocols that combine vision with execution, where true innovation is made visible and accessible. A place where capital flows toward value, not vanity.
History gives us powerful reminders. Take Nvidia: years ago, only a handful of technical minds in AI understood the magnitude of what they were building. For everyone else, it was just another chip company. But when the world finally realized Nvidia was powering the AI revolution, and so it became the largest company in the stock market.
It’s proof of a hard truth: most people don’t know how to allocate their funds toward high-performing, high-potential companies — until it’s too late.
As Warren Buffett once said, “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” EulerPhi is here to ensure capital flows toward innovation with true intrinsic value and to help educate investors, ultimately reshaping how society perceives and engages with our ecosystem.
