Trustless Cross-chain Communication for Zendoo Sidechains

Alberto Garoffolo, Dmytro Kaidalov, Roman Oliynykov

In the Zendoo white paper, we introduced a novel sidechain construction for Bitcoin-like blockchains, which allows a mainchain to create and communicate with sidechains of differen…

Darlin: Recursive Proofs using Marlin

Ulrich Haböck, Alberto Garoffolo, Daniele Di Benedetto

This document describes Darlin, a succinct zero-knowledge argument of knowledge based on the Marlin SNARK (Chiesa et al., Eurocrypt 2020) and the `dlog' polynomial commitment schem…
