Is there any way or plan to introduce ZK Proofs on Stellar? Or any other approaches to ensuring counter-party privacy?
Zero Knowledge Proofs on Stellar
Just curious if you have found any solution? I am looking at possibly implementing this.
I am also thinking on tackling this problem, if you want to share ideas let me know.
- Edited
zk-snarks are ~1KB, zk-starks are ~300KB. None of them will be feasible to put on the ledger directly. So you're looking at a hash, and external storage. What are you going to do with the proofs, when you have them? There's no way for a Stellar transaction to look at a proof anyway, and succeed/fail based on it.
From my understanding, this requires consensus level changes...
I'm interested in such feature implementation.
I think it should be possible to add zk-snarks or zk-starks to stellar through lightning network. This should be more effective than stellar core network. I heard stellar is considering lightning network for end 2018 ? Any news/info on that ?
versificateur Can you get in touch with me at kjvenky[at]gmail. We are exploring feasibility of similar concept for a Hybrid chain
