ZK & Mining

The LayerNet ZK mining market exemplifies the utilization of distributed computing resources, notably GPUs, to meet the extensive requirements for generating Zero-Knowledge (ZK) proofs at scale. LayerNet has established a dedicated ZK marketplace that enables the delegation of these demanding computational tasks to an international consortium of computing contributors.

LayerNet leverages a global network of computing contributors who pool their processing capabilities, effectively creating a decentralized supercomputer. This arrangement facilitates the concurrent processing of tasks, markedly optimizing the timeframe for producing ZK proofs.

GPUs are exceptionally efficient at processing tasks that can be executed in parallel, making them perfectly suited for the computationally intensive task of generating ZK proofs. It is probable that LayerNet incorporates nodes furnished with high-performance GPUs, facilitating faster and more economical production of proofs.

Within LayerNet, the ZK market functions as a hub for the generation of ZK proofs. Blockchain protocols and applications in need of ZK proofs, but without the necessary computational capacity to produce them internally, have the option to delegate these tasks to the LayerNet.
