Zero-Knowledge Proofs

Zero-knowledge proofs enable private ownership proof and public transaction verification. ZKOracles scan Bitcoin blocks, validate state changes, and compress data into on-chain proofs, reducing dependence on trusted indexers.

Technical Architecture

• State Management: ZKOracles track and compress state, making balances auditable on-chain.

• Computation Offloading: Transactions are proven off-chain, with proofs validated on-chain.

• Trust Model: Assumes one honest validator, with Bitcoin consensus as the final authority.

• Cryptography: Employs Merkle trees, recursive ZK systems, and challenge-response mechanisms for efficiency and security.
