RISC-Zero

Definition

RISC-Zero is a zero-knowledge proof system designed for verifiable computation. It allows for the execution of complex computations that can be proven correct without revealing the underlying data or the computation itself. This technology is foundational for enhancing privacy and scalability in blockchain applications, enabling secure and verifiable off-chain computations to be anchored on-chain. Its architecture is based on a specialized RISC-V instruction set.
