The speakers discuss the concept of zero knowledge proofs and the potential cool applications that can be achieved using them. They mention the influence of Zcash's work on Snarks and touch on the topic of trusted setup and its potential impact on their work.
In this week's episode, we sit down with Izaak Meckler & Evan Shapiro from O(1) Labs to discuss Coda, a blockchain using recursive composition of zkSNARKs to eliminate history. We discuss recursive zkSNARKs generally, what a recursive zkSNARK construction blockchain would look like, and the challenges in implementing this sophisticated scaling solution.
