Code-Based SNARKs are a category of Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Arguments of Knowledge that derive their security from the hardness of problems related to error-correcting codes. Unlike other SNARK constructions, they do not rely on number-theoretic assumptions like elliptic curve pairings. This approach offers a distinct cryptographic foundation for proof generation. They represent an alternative design choice in zero-knowledge cryptography.
Context
The development of Code-Based SNARKs addresses concerns about the long-term security of cryptographic assumptions used in other SNARK types. Research focuses on optimizing their efficiency and proof size to make them competitive with established SNARKs. Their advancement is relevant for applications requiring quantum-resistant cryptographic solutions and diverse security foundations.
