Definition ∞ Asynchronous proving is a cryptographic technique where the generation of a proof occurs independently of, and often subsequent to, the transaction or computation it validates. This method separates the proving process from the immediate execution flow. It allows for more flexible and scalable verification systems, reducing latency in core operations.
Context ∞ In blockchain systems, particularly those using zero-knowledge proofs for scalability, asynchronous proving is a significant optimization. It enables transactions to be processed quickly on a layer-two network, with proofs generated later and submitted to the main chain for verification. This approach helps alleviate congestion and improve throughput on foundational layers, making systems more efficient.
