Hackathons
Welcome to the first post in a series showcasing the winners of the inaugural Aligned Builders Hackathon. Each article will highlight innovative use cases for ZK technology enabled by Aligned's Proof Verification Layer. The hackathon projects ranged from ZK-enabled games and private voting apps to light client bridging

Aligned, Proof Verification Layer mainnet beta aşamasına, kurulduktan dokuz ay sonra ulaştı. Proof Verification Layer (kanıt doğrulama katmanı), projelere ve kullanıcılara hızlı ve uygun maliyetli zk-proof doğrulaması sunarak sıfır bilgi (zk) tabanlı teknolojilerin geliştirilmesi ve benimsenmesi için önemli bir adımı temsil ediyor. Aligned Foundation, Aligned’ın yol haritasını hızlandırmak ve

We’re proud to reflect on a transformative year for Aligned. Here's what we have achieved over the past year working to help a foundation for a scalable, trustless proof verification. Aligned accelerates Ethereum’s roadmap with zero-knowledge technology, enabling proof verification at just 10% of the cost.

Recap In our previous blog, we explored the fundamental properties of cryptographic hash functions (CHFs) and discussed their crucial role in maintaining the integrity and security of data with 3MI Labs. In this post, we delve into the architectural strategies behind hash functions. These strategies, or modes of operation, are

We announced the mainnet beta of our Proof Verification Layer two weeks ago, after nearly 9 months of hard work that included its conceptualization, design, proof of concept, testnets, and extensive security audits. This was only made possible with the support of the community and all the developers, engineers, and

The development and use of integrity/zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs has accelerated over the past few years. The introduction of general purpose ZK virtual machines, which allow us to write and prove Rust code, has made developing verifiable applications easier and faster. We have blockchains like Mina that prove every block
