Zero-Knowledge Primitives

Definition

Zero-knowledge primitives are fundamental cryptographic building blocks that enable a party to prove knowledge of a secret without revealing the secret itself. These foundational components, such as commitments, range proofs, and signature schemes, form the basis for more complex zero-knowledge proof systems. They are essential for constructing privacy-preserving protocols and verifiable computations in decentralized networks. These primitives ensure data confidentiality and integrity.
