Join us for an inspiring, collaborative research event where brilliant minds come together to tackle some of the most pressing questions relating zero knowledge in Ethereum ecosystem.

RSVP NOW: https://lu.ma/s8oip1wt

Event Overview

Session 1: Technical Workshop (14:30-16:00)

Proposed topics：

• Novel Approaches to Inverse Computation in ZK Systems

• Optimizing FRI Protocols for Efficient Zero-Knowledge Verifiable Computation

• Binius and Open Problems in ZK Research

• Optimizing Small-Value Transaction Batching in L2s

Session 2: Discussion/Debate (16:10-17:10)

ZK vs. Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) in Ethereum’s future :

• ZK vs TEE: Friends or Foes?

• ZK and TEE: balancing between scalability and security, and their future?

  • What are the synergistic opportunities for ZK and TEE?

• TEE vs MPC vs FHE: Wait what?

• ZK and TEE and Hybrid: Security and performance (scalability) aspects, at what cost?

  • Real World Implementation: Given current technical maturity, which solution is better positioned for immediate deployment?

• In Ethereum's future roadmap, which solution - ZK or TEE - provides the better performance/security balance?

• What is the future of TEE in Ethereum roadmap? Is it gonna be enshrined, or coprocessor?
