Space and Times ZK Coprocessor Attains New Speed Record for Sub-Second Proofs
The future of web3 is fast and interconnected. And if Space and Time (SxT) has any say in the matter, this future will be powered by ZK coprocessors. One of several blockchain companies to be leveraging zero-knowledge proofs, SxT is particularly interested in using them to supply smart contracts with data direct from SQL databases. In doing this, its just hit a new benchmark for its Proof of SQL product, which has been recorded delivering sub-second proofs for the first time.
The Proof is in the Coprocessor
As the blockchain for ZK-proven data one whose mainnet has just launched in fact Space and Time was already on the up The latest benchmarks published for its Proof of SQL solution are merely the icing on the cake. Nevertheless, they are, quite literally, proof that SxTs tech is every bit as fast as its engineers imagined. And these arent just theoretical proofs: the latest version of Proof of SQL, capable of delivering sub-second proofs when working with SQL databases containing over one million rows, is now live on GitHub.
For web3 devs who want to get hands-on with ZK-proofs, Space and Time provides all the tooling, allowing them to connect their dapps to data-crammed SQL databases. Even when working with large datasets, Proof of SQL is capable of rapidly delivering the output in less time than it takes to draw an intake of breath. This speediness comes courtesy of NVIDIA, whose GPUs help to accelerate the computation, in tandem with a similar acceleration framework SxT has designed specifically for ZK proofs.
Less Time, More Space
With Proof of SQL, SxT essentially allows dapps to do more with more data in less time. Its a proposition that has vast promise for decentralized applications that are plugged into rich datasets for use cases spanning AI, real-world finance, healthcare, insurance, and any other enterprise domain you may care to think of.
One figure who isnt surprised to see Space and Time achieve sub-second proofs with Proof of SQL is Jay White. Thats because he invented the Proof of SQL protocol, and thus knows better than anyone what its capable of. According to the MakeInfinite Labs Co-Founder, Space and Time is at the forefront of building fast, practical ZK for real-world workloads and applications.Were thrilled by the progress of Proof of SQL and look forward to continuing to build with the NVIDIA team to usher in the next generation of AI and blockchain applications, powered by ZK.
Were now living through a time in which web3 without ZK proofs is unthinkable. In just a few years, theyve gone from niche technology to the backbone of everything from L2 networks to supplying sub-second proofs of SQL data. With use cases for zero-knowledge technology still being discovered, theres plenty more where that came from.
As for Space and Time, its on a roll now that its mainnet is live and Proof of SQL is performing admirably in benchmark tests. Now its focus turns to onboarding as many projects as possible looking to leverage its tech to create powerful dapps controlled by smart contracts that run on ZK proofs.
