Succinct Verifiable Computation refers to cryptographic techniques that allow a party to prove to another party that a computation was performed correctly, without revealing the computation itself, and with a proof size significantly smaller than the computation’s complexity. The verification process is also much faster than re-executing the original computation. This method enables efficient and private verification of complex operations.
Context
Succinct Verifiable Computation, often implemented through zero-knowledge proofs like SNARKs and STARKs, is a critical technology for scaling blockchain networks and enhancing privacy in digital assets. It permits off-chain computation with on-chain verification, drastically increasing transaction throughput and reducing data storage requirements. News frequently covers the advancements and adoption of these cryptographic proofs in Layer 2 scaling solutions and privacy-focused cryptocurrencies, highlighting their potential to revolutionize decentralized applications.
Dew introduces the first transparent polynomial commitment scheme with constant proof size and logarithmic verification, eliminating the trusted setup barrier for succinct verifiable computation.
