We deeply dived into zkVM's trace generation technology, and just published:
Evaluation of zkVM Trace Generation Methods: AOT vs. JIT

4️⃣ JIT (Just-in-Time) compiles dynamically at runtime — adapting to workloads. Flexible, but adds startup overhead.

4️⃣ Cost revolution:
Proofs now cost just a few cents per block — transforming ZK from a research demo to a viable production system.
Congrats @ziskvm — single-machine 4090 results now live on @eth_proofs! 👏 Love to see a fully open-source, 128-bit-secure stack with reproducible runs.
This is exactly the openness the ecosystem needs: code others can rebuild, verify, and benchmark—faster fixes, shared optimizations, stronger trust. Solid baseline on one 4090; excited to see how far perf can climb next.
@zisvm is now reporting in @ethproofs blocks with a single 4090.
ZisK is fully open-source, 128-bit secure, and every reported time is 100% reproducible — making zkVM comparisons easier than ever.

1/10 — Weekly ZK Roundup (Sep 8–14)
We’re summarizing this week’s biggest ZK moves for builders and researchers: record-setting proving by @StarkWareLtd, @Starknet’s “Grinta” upgrade progress, @LineaBuild’s airdrop/TGE, @IrreducibleHW’s Binius64, in-browser verification on @eth_proofs with @ziskvm, @boundlesshq’s @binance HODLer listing, @0xPolygon’s Rio testnet upgrade, @openvm_org’s GPU proving release, and @thezkcloud’s switch to @RiscZero + Bento. Let’s dive in.
9/10 — @openvm_org v1.4.0 brings GPU proving + distributed clusters
OpenVM shipped v1.4.0 with a new GPU prover, a 150 MHz execution system, and orchestration for hundreds of GPUs. Claimed results: mainnet Ethereum blocks proven in ~15s at <$0.0003 per tx on L40S-class hardware—and the stack is MIT/Apache-2.0 and audited (Cantina). Implication: more teams can self-host/extend a performant zkVM without vendor lock-in; this also raises the bar for open-source zkVM ergonomics and perf transparency.

10/10 — @thezkcloud switches to @RiscZero + Bento multi-GPU/multi-machine
ZkCloud announced a production move from SP1 single-GPU to RISC Zero zkVM + Bento clusters, branding itself “the fastest multi-machine” setup. Translation: they’re not just a marketplace; they actively operate/optimize the proving stack. Why care: (1) lower latency for block-scale proving, (2) capacity scaling via open-cluster orchestration (@RiscZero pushes open-source real-time proving toward sub-12s), (3) a cross-prover router still lets workloads target other stacks if needed.
