I wrote a blog about ZK Coprocessors. What they are and why to use them. Check it out: medium.com/dropout-analytics…

7/ Where Are We Going Both hardware and software improvements for ZK are being shipped week over week, quarter over quarter, and year over year that are successfully supporting an increasingly wider and wider realm of implementations. Moreover, the ZK Ecosystem has become multi-chain and multi-VM. No longer is ZK constrained to ETH or opBNB; ZK touches all EVM and blockchain ecosystems, even a whole sector of zkVMs have arisen. ZK Coprocessors are an important and effective tool for getting the most out of ZK-enabled systems. They make easy the use of whatever virtual or physical machines get the job done best, and unlock anything offchain to be plugged in onchain. Over the past 5 years, ZK proved it can come to market. Over the next 5 years, ZK will either make a bold statement or back away in shame.

1/ 📷🧵 Introducing the ZK Ecosystem Map! Zero knowledge (ZK) is an explosive area within the cryptocurrency and cybersecurity communities, and I made this Ecosystem Map to help outline what's going on. TLDR; 1. Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKP/ZK) are a way to prove something is true without saying how or why you know it is true 2. ZK is an increasingly optimized technology that help scale trustless decentralized systems 3. The number of serious projects in the ZK Ecosystem has grown over 50x in the last 5 years 4. Specialized hardware is being built to improve the performance of ZK

2/ ZK enables a new generation of technology that is built on a core of individual privacy even in public spaces. You can follow this guide to learn more about ZK while exploring the map: medium.com/dropout-analytics…
