By O(1) Labs, the team behind Coda Protocol The trapdoor in SNARKs Let's recap the last section — SNARKs are uniquely powerful due to their: small proof sizes fast verification times The last property particularly matters because when you run an intensive computation once, you want many parties to be able to verify it quickly. Hence, SNARKs become very useful when there is a one-to-many relationship between prover and verifiers — perfect for blockchain networks.
I’m very curious as to how this unfolds. I believe that figuring this out is key to wider implementation of zkSnarks.
In the struggle for decentralization, the greatest enemy is unintended centralization.
