The Future of Verifiable Computation Is Coming We're launching R0 zkVM 1.0, the world's first production-ready general purpose zkVM, to enable a future where you can prove anything and verify everywhere. A future where zero knowledge is universal.

Craig Wright has discontinued his claims against Bitcoin developers (incl me) in the TTL case (where he was asking for a fork of bitcoin that seized random coins and gave him free money)! old.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments…
@QuantumCatsXYZ an interesting idea and looking forward to seeing more details about it. but this isn't the "first permissionless bitcoin bridge", see e.g. the work presented by @simanta_gautam @btcplusplus last year: yewtu.be/watch?v=Nldg_t…
This is a pretty good argument. I might start dabbling in altcoins due to this. Does anyone still think fiat (specifically, dollar pegged stablecoins) are still inherently bad after reading this? Saving good businesses from market-imposed volatility seems like a public good
@super_testnet @JuanSGalt The counter argument that if you have a business that runs on tight margins & with a lot of value locked & with no fast way to react, then bitcoin volatility can wipe your whole business in one hour and so you need value stability to protect the business.
Covenants could take bitcoin to the next level But bitcoin devs haven't done an amazing job at explaining what covenants actually are. Here’s a simple breakdown of each new covenant proposal:
If this is legit it is both hilarious, but also underscores an important issue around quantum computing claims.

This is how bad ETHBTC has gotten. Unbelievable.
The talks I attended at ZK summit were mostly focused on Ethereum (and Bitcoin was only mentioned as outdated technology). So I was quite surprised when discussing with people that there is an enormous interest in Bitcoin, BitVM and OP_CAT (STARK verifier in script anyone?).
Met some really interesting folks at ZK summit and got more Bitcoin pilled at dinner last night. Proof of work is a beautiful mechanism with unmatched elegance. The work with OP_CAT and BitVM to optimistically (?) verify SNARKs/STARKs to scale Bitcoin seems like a huge unlock.…

eprint.iacr.org/2024/504 new work with @jimpo_potamus is out. combines Binius with FRI, in just the right way—using an idea from BaseFold—and achieves much smaller proofs. in the process, we reveal a "hidden connection" between the Additive NTT and FRI. this work was a blast!
Concerned about Binius proof sizes? Our latest research paper shows we can use FRI to reduce proof size, while still working for all binary tower fields. ulvetanna.io/news/fri-binius
