Verifiable computing refers to a system where a powerful but untrusted prover performs a computation and generates a concise proof that the computation was executed correctly. A weaker verifier can then quickly check this proof without re-executing the entire computation. In the digital asset space, this is often achieved using zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) or other cryptographic proof systems. It allows for off-chain computation with on-chain verification, enhancing scalability and privacy.
Context
News often reports on the advancements and applications of verifiable computing, particularly zero-knowledge proofs, as a breakthrough for blockchain scalability and privacy solutions. These technologies allow for complex computations to occur off-chain, significantly reducing the load on the main network while maintaining trust. The development of more efficient and accessible verifiable computing techniques is a key focus for the next generation of decentralized applications.
