hardware accelerated cryptography

[Wormhole Foundation @WormholeFdn]

Wormhole Foundation has awarded a Contributor Grant to @_Supranational for Wormhole ZK hardware acceleration.

This step is crucial for minimizing trust and enhancing security of the multichain ecosystem powered by @Wormhole.

1) Faster/Cheaper implementations of Groth16

Proofs are a large cost for Storage Providers in Filecoin, so we spent engineering time to make them faster.

We are excited to announce our partnership with Supranational, working on the next iteration of VDFs (you all lovingly know them as Timelords) to help make our PoST network better than ever!

[Zero Knowledge Podcast @zeroknowledgefm]

🔊This week, we cover hardware for ZKPs and VDFs! @AnnaRRose & @tarunchitra chat with Simon Peffers & @kellymolson from @_Supranational. They share their knowledge of FPGAs, ASICs and how it all ties into Moore’s law, ZK cryptography and blockchains!
