Lightweight ~urbit-based blockchain for ZK compute

Crypto brings freedom. Freedom demands a distributed network optimised for settling private, verifiable computation at scale. To get there, we're developing decentralised solutions for Zero Knowledge Proof-of-Work aka the blockchain to prove the future.

Participation in blockchains has been solved, no need to reinvent the wheel. In the world of distributed technology, decentralisation grabs the spotlight with its promise of transparent and fair participation that resonates with everyone, from curious newcomers to seasoned innovators. By spreading compute across the network, blockchain ditches the need for a single boss, creating a level playing field where every move is open for all to see, building trust and fairness into every transaction. This straightforward approach delivers rock-solid security and reliability. Now we just need to use that compute for meaningful work. Enter zero-knowledge provers, thanks to Mockchain. We invite you to jump into a future world where everyone gets a fair shot, and the opportunity to shape the future is right at your fingertips.

So you call yourself a freedom fighter?

You've gotta be kidding me. You can’t shout “fair” and leave no slice of the pie. Do you even fucking know what a 'network effect' is? You need ✨community✨. Community is a backbone. Otherwise, you just have piece of cool hoon code and no people around it. Mockchain is the people.

You get no blocks, you fill VC's bags

How does ZK proof-of-work work?

Mockchain uses ZK proof-of-work as its consensus mechanism for providing trustless settlement and ordering guarantees. ZK proof-of-work is similar to hashing in bitcoin in that miners compete to try to run a puzzle computation repeatedly with different nonces until the hash of the output is less than a targeted number, colloquially referred to as the difficulty. In our initial implementation of ZK proof-of-work, miners create a Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) of a fixed puzzle computation and then hash the ZKP.

Why is it beautiful?

What is zero-knowledge proof (ZKP)?

A zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) is a cryptographic method that allows one party (the prover) to convince another party (the verifier) that a statement is true without revealing any additional information beyond the fact that the statement is true. This technique is widely used in secure communications and blockchain technology to protect sensitive data. It's the future of the internet
