Hello,
@ThomasPiellard is currently working on making the frontend
compatible with both Groth16 and PLONK arithmetizations.
Once that is done (PR likely coming in 2-3 weeks), we will see how to proceed for next steps, happy to ping you here if you want to participate.
@SherLzp if you are interested to contribute to PLONK in particular, one thing you could implement independently of the frontend/
is the Kate commitments part.
We have that on our backlog in about a month from now, but if you're willing to contribute a first version to the repo that could help gnark
support PLONK sooner.
@gbotrel Thanks for reply! I will try my best.
@SherLzp hi :) did you have time to work on that the past weeks?
@gbotrel Sorry for that, I'm recently working on a paper. I expected it to start in early March.
PLONK is a new zk-snarks algorithm, which is based on Sonic. It can realize SRS (no longer need to generate CRS for each circuit separately), and it is very practical compared to Sonic. Can we modify gnark to support PLONK? I want to make some contributions to the project, so I have the following issues:
ConstraintSystem
to define the Groth16 circuit, whether it is necessary to construct a new class or based on the existingConstraintSystem
.
