Delegated proof generation refers to a mechanism where the creation of cryptographic proofs, often for scaling solutions like zero-knowledge rollups, is outsourced to specialized entities or hardware. This allows the main network to verify proofs efficiently without needing to compute them directly, thereby reducing computational load and increasing throughput. It separates proof computation from proof verification.
Context
News often reports on delegated proof generation in the context of layer-2 scaling solutions and efforts to enhance the performance of various blockchains. This approach aims to make advanced cryptographic proofs more accessible and cost-effective for wider adoption. The security and trustworthiness of the delegated proof generators are key considerations in its implementation.
Silently verifiable proofs introduce a cryptographic primitive that reduces batch verification communication overhead to a single field element, unlocking truly scalable private computation.
