Proof Cloud Launch at Google ZK Summit
Polyhedra Network has recently launched the open beta of Proof Cloud at the Google ZK Summit, aiming to make ZK proofs more accessible in both web2 and web3 environments. Supported by Google Cloud, MATIC, Linea, and Lita, Proof Cloud addresses the increasing demand for cost-effective zero-knowledge proof technology.
Features of Proof Arena
One of the key components of Proof Cloud is Proof Arena, a tool that offers transparency in ZK-proof technology. Developers can use Proof Arena to execute prover benchmarks, test performance, and compare results. The platform supports various ZK-proof systems, including Polyhedra’s Expander, Polygon’s Plonky3, StarkWare’s Stwo, and Linea’s Gnark. Eric Vreeland, Polyhedra Network’s Chief Strategy Officer, highlighted the potential of Proof Arena to reduce computational costs for developers.
Importance of Proof Cloud in ZK Technology
Sandeep Nailwal, Polygon Labs Co-Founder, emphasized the significance of tools like Proof Cloud in enhancing accessibility and transparency in ZK technology. By leveraging platforms like Proof Cloud, developers can optimize the performance of their zk-proofs and reduce computational costs significantly. Nailwal also noted the rapid progress of zero-knowledge technology and the essential role of tools like Polyhedra’s Proof Cloud in lowering barriers to entry and promoting transparency in the sector.
