Space and Time Launches Sub-Second ZK Prover, Proof of SQL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A custom-built compute layer called Space and Time (SxT) made its sub-second zero-knowledge<\/a> (ZK) prover stack, known as Proof of SQL, publicly available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A small number of SxT clients were first given access to the ZK-proof system in alpha last August. ZK provers are essential to cryptography because they meet privacy requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can prove that data or transactions are accurate or legitimate without disclosing further information according to the basic tenet of ZK models.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vitalik Buterin of Ethereum and other web3 developers<\/a> have emphasized the significance of ZK stacks in creating dependable decentralized financial (defi) ecosystems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technology is seen to be essential for guaranteeing end users' and smart contract protocols' safe on-chain interactions. ZK proofs, however, have been known to cause execution to lag occasionally.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Proof of SQL program was created “so that smart contracts and AI agents can ask questions about a chain's activity, as well as off-chain data, and receive back trustless SQL query results on-chain during a transaction without having to wait for 30 minute proof times,” according to Jay White, PhD, co-founder of SxT and head of research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding large-scale operations, the web3 data warehouse claims that its Proof of SQL offers a more optimal processing architecture than generalized zk-Virtual Machines\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and co-processors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SxT and White claim that the ZK prover used a single GPU to process queries for more than 100,000 row tables in less than a second. The model can be included into zkVMs on blockchains such as Ethereum (ETH) for larger workloads and quicker speeds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
