Nokia takes a major step toward securing cryptocurrencies with a new encryption patent. Nokia Technologies Co., Ltd. reportedly filed for a patent on Dec. 23, 2024, under the title “Device method and computer program” to improve the encryption of digital…
Far from making zero-knowledge rollups obsolete, the Beam Chain would make them work better, says Polygon. zkSync builder Matter Labs is also bullish.
Namechain, as the layer-2 blockcain is called, will use a zero-knowledge rollup for scaling and is likely to go live around the end of 2025.
We need zero-knowledge proofs to verify machine learning models at scale.
Buenos Aires has introduced a new digital identity system that prioritizes privacy using zero-knowledge technology. The Argentinian government has integrated QuarkID, a blockchain-based identity solution, into its miBA app, which offers services and documents to over 3.6 million residents, according…
Ethereum layer 2 blockchain, Scroll, has partnered with Cysic Network to integrate zero-knowledge computing power into the blockchain to accelerate Ethereum scaling. Scroll, an emerging Ethereum(ETH) layer-2 blockchain, has paired up with zero-knowledge proof layer Cysic Network in order to…
Decentralized oracle network Chainlink has expanded its cross-chain interoperability protocol to zero-knowledge proofs platform ZKsync. Chainlink (LINK) announced on Sept. 16 that blockchain protocol Chainlink CCIP was live on the ZKsync (ZK) Era mainnet, with the integration aimed at enhancing…
