Space and Time's Blitzar: An Open-Source Framework Revolutionizing ZK-Proof Generation

Algoine News
Summary:
Space and Time, a decentralized Web3 data service, has developed an open-source GPU acceleration framework known as Blitzar. This tool is capable of enhancing encryption technology by optimizing zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) generation, which ensures data confidentiality and accuracy. Space and Time’s proprietary Proof of SQL tool also generates a SNARK cryptographic proof, enhancing data query trust. Furthermore, Ethereum layer 2 protocols could also leverage Blitzar. The development of such technologies has gained interest, particularly in the Ethereum ecosystem, enhancing speed and lower-fee transactions.
An innovative open-source GPU acceleration framework has been developed by the decentralized Web3 data service, Space and Time. This framework can upgrade encryption technology thanks to blockchain protocols based on zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof). This latter cryptographic method permits a party to prove the presence of specific data or information without revealing the information itself, thereby ensuring both its confidentiality and its accuracy. Space and Time's framework is now referred to as Blitzar, drawing its name from its purpose to "blitz" the process of making ZK-proofs more robust and faster. Jay White, the company’s co-founder and Research Chief, reveals that their decision to make Blitzar publicly available aims to encourage community enhancements to the repository. White explains how GPU accelerators boost the performance of ZK-proof generation by offloading computationally-intensive tasks to GPUs. This is necessary because generating ZK-proofs is a compute-intensive task that requires large datasets; the memory structure of GPUs is efficiently designed to handle such large datasets. Hence, Blitzar is specifically fashioned for GPUs. Space and Time have made their framework available to all projects aiming to increase the performance of multi-scalar multiplication, which is an expensive part of generating a ZK-proof and something Blitzar is capable of accelerating. Space and Time offers structured query language (SPL) programming functionality for smart contract blockchains utilizing ZK-proof technology. The company's proprietary Proof of SQL ZK-proof tool produces a SNARK cryptographic proof of a query within its decentralized data network, enabling users to trust the accuracy and authenticity of a data query. Through leveraging NVIDIA GPUs and its partnership with the hardware manufacturer, Space and Time have developed their Proof of SQL tool and the ZK-proof and Blitzar. According to White, Ethereum layer 2 protocols like Polygon zkEVM and zkSync Era could also benefit from Blitzar. As 2023 unfolded, ZK-proof protocols have drawn much attention, especially in the Ethereum ecosystem. These protocols have enabled fast and low-fee transactions to DApps and services operating on the Ethereum blockchain.
