Non-Interactive ZK

Definition

Non-Interactive ZK refers to a type of zero-knowledge proof where the prover sends a single message to the verifier, without further communication. This cryptographic technique allows one party to confirm the truth of a statement to another party without revealing any additional information, and crucially, without requiring back-and-forth interaction. The non-interactive aspect makes these proofs highly efficient for blockchain applications, as they can be generated once and then verified by anyone at any time. This method significantly reduces communication overhead and enhances privacy for on-chain transactions and computations.
