Small step for the crypto world, but big for Irreducible. Godspeed, #binius!!!
🚀Big news! Irreducible launches alpha-ready Binius library and its first application, an Ethereum state proving service. Here’s what it means: 🧵

Hi All, seems like my TG was hacked. I haven’t used it much lately, since Irreducible shut down. Please ignore all the messages, and since I’m no longer in crypto, feel free to kick me out from all the groups 🙏

@jimpo_potamus and I made the difficult but right call to wind down Irreducible.
Irreducible's time has come to an end. Long story short, @radi_cojbasic and I ultimately came to the realization that we couldn't sustainably build the kind of deep tech business in ZK that motivated us.

Seems like we're hacked - please ignore this while I am working with X support to regain the access to the account. Apologies to all if this post got you confused

Irreducible does not stop innovating! After Binius, the first Binary Tower proof system designed for high-efficiency computing, we are pushing into another layer of the proving stack - Hello World, Petra! After presenting a Custom-HW-ISA targeting our FPGA accelerator (which operates in the Binary Tower fields), today we present a Custom-zkVM-ISA which targets Binius. We will have WASM -> Silicon stack, designed with help from our friends from @0xPolygon and @powdr_labs. PetraVM is a community effort, catch the wave today 🏄
Can't keep up with all the new zkVM announcements? Here's one you don't wont to miss. Today we are introducing a preview of PetraVM, a Binius-based verifiable VM built in collaboration with @0xPolygon!

Why risc-v over wasm for Ethereum contracts? If the argument is that there is more risc-v zkVMs than wasm ones, then that's the wrong way to look at it. WASM actually has a lot of nice properties that EOF is trying to add, which risc-v doesn't have (e.g. it doesn't have jumps and is easier to analyze statically). The ability to prove properties about contract code and lower to machine code while preserving gas accounting are the key properties. This actually has been done in wasm by ewasm couple of years ago (surprised that VB didn't mention this in the post). ZK-friendliness between risc-v and wasm shouldn't be the deciding factor (and it is a toss-up based on what I found when I deep dived this ~2years ago).

New @VitalikButerin blog post on replacing the EVM with RISC-V in the long-term. I am a huge fan of this direction for Ethereum's execution layer. Today, RISC-V zkVMs like SP1 are the clear endgame solution for "ZK-ifying" Ethereum and quickly becoming the de-facto solution for ZK EVM. But as Vitalik cites in this post, our research at Succinct shows that the EVM is an extremely inefficient ISA for ZK proving. This proposal to migrate the execution layer directly to RISC-V can be viewed as migrating to "native" code for a ZK world as opposed to living in an interpreted world that imposes between 100-1000x overhead. By replacing EVM with RISC-V for the execution layer, we can up the gas limit on L1 by orders of magnitude (assuming optimization of other bottlenecks like a more zkVM friendly state merkleization format), while preserving verifiability. Link to full blog post below.

If the requirement is to keep Rust adoption, even something like WASM custom compiler can be a lot more efficient than RISCV. The trade off is more compiler/VM work on top of the zkVM, which IMO seems negligible given the huge goal of snarkEthereum

Very happy to see Tower Research, an HFT powerhouse, putting a solid piece on ZK proving.
We've been studying Zero Knowledge Proofs here at Tower to better understand the supply chain, flow of value, and their use as a general computing primitive. Special thanks to @Snarkify_ZKP for their input on the piece. tower-research.com/contempor…
