In a blog post published on Thursday, the Etheruem Foundation announced plans to integrate zero-knowledge (Zk) Evidence throughout the Ethereum stack, starting with a layer of 1 zwm. Originally, validators will be able to select clients that verify multiple offchain execution certificate from different ZKVMs instead of re-developing blocks. This setup utilizes Ethereum’s existing client diversity model for extra security, with minimal protocol changes needed to support pipe -leading execution in the upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade.
Although the adoption of ZK clients will start small, it is expected to grow when confidence builds. When a majority of the validators are secure of ZK evidence, Ethereum can increase the gas limit and switch to evidence verification by default.
To activate this shift, the Foundation defines the “Real Time Certificate” standards for ZKVM developers. These include 10-second latency for 99% of blocks, open source code, at least 128-bit security, under-300kib-proof without trusted setups and hardware limits of $ 100K in costs and 10 kW in Power Use, make it possible to prove that there is proof of home.
Although it is already affordable to prove in the cloud, the emphasis on optimizing decentralized, home setups is. The fund is constantly expecting innovation to these goals in front of DevConnect Argentina, with ZKVMs ready to become critical infrastructure for the future of Ethereum.
Finally, yesterday Lockchain Analytics platform Glassnode noticed a rare occurrence in the derivatus market: Ether’s 24-hour futures-trading volume card it was surpassed by Bitcoin. According to the company, Eth Futures noted $ 62.1 billion in the daily volume that angled Bitcoin’s $ 61.7 billion.
