A proof delegation protocol allows a party with limited computational resources to outsource the generation of a cryptographic proof to a more powerful entity. The delegator receives a compact proof from the delegate, which they can then efficiently verify. This system enables resource-constrained devices to participate in complex cryptographic schemes.
Context
Proof delegation protocols are vital for extending the reach of zero-knowledge proofs and other advanced cryptographic applications to mobile devices and low-power hardware. News often highlights new protocols that reduce the overhead for delegators or improve the security guarantees of the delegation process. The ongoing challenge involves ensuring that the delegation process itself remains secure and that the generated proofs are trustworthy.
