He has held research positions at prestigious institutions such as the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, Harvard, and MIT, and is considered to be one of the leading experts of the maths in the field.<\/p>\n<p>StarkWare uses what is known as an off-chain Prover and on-chain Verifier approach to unlock mass scalability by allowing off-chain processing of large computations while ensuring their integrity on-chain with minimal overhead.<\/p>\n<p>StarkEx, Cairo, and Starknet are some of the products they have developed to achieve this and \u2014 along with ZeroSync and others like Polygon with their recent introduction of a zkEVM \u2014 the race is on to develop optimized and scaleable solutions for popular mainnets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs have quickly become one of blockchain technology&#8217;s most talked about items.
