SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows you to run arbitrary Rust code within a secure, verifiable environment (zkVM) and generate cryptographic proofs of its correct execution, ensuring privacy and integrity without revealing sensitive inputs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Verifiable Computation: Execute any Rust program and obtain a cryptographic proof (receipt) that it ran exactly as intended.
  • Private Inputs: Provide inputs to your Rust code that are hidden from the verifier, ensuring data privacy.
  • On-Chain Verification: Integrate proofs into smart contracts on EVM-compatible chains like Monad for trustless verification.
  • Use Case: Prove that a complex financial calculation was performed correctly without revealing the proprietary algorithm or sensitive transaction data.

Quick Start

Install the RISC Zero toolchain and create a new project using cargo risczero new my_project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate zero-knowledge proofs for Rust code execution?

To generate zero-knowledge proofs for Rust code, execute your program within a zkVM to produce a cryptographic receipt. This receipt verifies the computation ran exactly as intended without exposing sensitive private inputs.

Can I verify zk-STARK proofs on-chain using EVM-compatible smart contracts?

Yes, you can verify zk-STARK and Groth16 proofs on-chain using EVM-compatible smart contracts. This integration enables trustless verification of private computation results directly on networks like Monad.

What is verifiable computation and when do I need it for smart contracts?

Verifiable computation proves a program executed correctly without revealing its inputs. You need it for smart contracts when proving complex financial calculations or proprietary algorithms while maintaining data privacy.

How do I handle private inputs in a zero-knowledge virtual machine?

Private inputs in a zero-knowledge virtual machine are hidden from the verifier during execution. The zkVM processes these inputs to generate proofs of correct computation while ensuring the underlying data remains completely private.

Does the RISC Zero toolchain work with existing Rust projects?

Yes, the RISC Zero toolchain integrates with existing Rust projects. You can create a new verifiable computation project using the command line tool and execute arbitrary Rust code within the secure zkVM environment.

What are the limitations of using zkVMs for verifiable computation?

Using zkVMs for verifiable computation requires executing code within a virtual machine environment, which introduces overhead compared to native execution. Programs must be compatible with the zkVM constraints to generate valid proofs.
