Hash-Based PCD

Definition

Hash-Based PCD refers to Hash-Based Probabilistic Certifying Documents, a cryptographic primitive used for creating verifiable proofs of computation. This technology allows a prover to convince a verifier that a computation was performed correctly, using a short, hash-based proof. It is particularly relevant in zero-knowledge proofs and other privacy-preserving protocols within blockchain systems. Hash-based PCDs offer efficiency and security benefits for verifying complex operations without revealing underlying data.
