Definition ∞ Non-Interactive Folding is a specific type of cryptographic folding scheme where the prover can generate a single, succinct proof for a sequence of computations without requiring any communication with a verifier during the proof generation process. This characteristic makes the proving system highly efficient for applications where the verifier might only be available once or where communication overhead needs minimization. It simplifies the verification workflow by eliminating back-and-forth interactions.
Context ∞ Non-interactive folding is a significant advancement in zero-knowledge proof technology, particularly for enhancing the scalability and privacy of blockchain transactions. Researchers are actively working on developing more efficient and secure non-interactive folding constructions. The current discussion centers on its practical deployment in various rollup architectures and other layer-2 solutions to achieve higher transaction throughput and lower costs.
