Definition ∞ ZK Workloads refer to computational tasks that are processed and verified using zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) technology. These workloads involve generating a cryptographic proof that a statement is true without revealing any information beyond the truth of the statement itself. ZK Workloads are typically computationally intensive for the prover but extremely efficient for the verifier.
Context ∞ ZK Workloads are foundational for scaling blockchain networks and enhancing privacy in decentralized applications. They enable off-chain computation with on-chain verification, significantly reducing transaction costs and increasing throughput. The optimization of ZK Workloads is a primary focus for researchers, aiming to make these powerful cryptographic tools more accessible and efficient for a wider array of applications within the digital asset space.
