Brevis and Aligned Partner for Fast, Cost-Effective ZKP Verification on Ethereum ⚡️

We are thrilled to announce we are partnering up with Brevis, a smart Zero-Knowledge Coprocessor, as our first EigenLayer ecosystem partner. The goal is to allow Brevis to verify ZKP (Zero-Knowledge Proof) directly on Aligned to lower the verification cost of co-processing requests while at the same time getting access to fast verification.

The Challenge: Through dApps building data-driven features on top of Brevis, it receives frequent proof generation requests, requiring cost-efficient verification in order to offer a great UX to end users of its ecosystem dApps. Currently doing the verification directly on Ethereum is gas-intensive. Solutions like aggregation can be used to amortize costs but come with a tradeoff in latency.

Aligned's Solution: Speed things up! Brevis will be integrating with Aligned to reduce verification costs and achieve faster verification finality.

About Brevis

Brevis is a smart zero-knowledge coprocessor that empowers smart contracts to read from, verify and utilize the full historical on-chain data from any chain and run customizable computations in a completely trust-free way. Using Brevis, developers can create a multitude of data-driven features — DEXes are able to build VIP loyalty programs based on a user’s past trading volume; active liquidity management protocols can trigger predefined user intents with ZK-verified on-chain states and events; AMMs can have strong LVR protection and more robust farming reward distribution programs; protocols can utilize multi-dimensional ZK-reputation metrics to segment users and provide a personalized UX based on an address’s on-chain footprint.

A Series On Hash Functions

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
