With the system that you've built today, you would never be querying the block headers of another chain for Ether. But you're only doing that query to the Ethereum chain, right? Yeah, today we support reading from ETH Mainnet and verifying against a block hash ofETH Mainnet. And the user can choose what trust assumptions they want to put on that block hash. So if that's onthereum, we provide a way for them to access those block hashes fully trustlessly. If that's on a rollup, then the native bridge provides a way for us to access it.
In this week’s episode, Anna sits down with Yi Sun, co-founder of Axiom. Yi was recently on the show to discuss ZK ML’s, however this time they take a closer look at the Axiom project and what it means to be a ZK coprocessor for Ethereum. During the interview they also explore what problems Axiom are trying to solve, how ZKPs are used to help bring historic data into smart contracts and what new use cases this architecture can support.

Aleo is a new Layer-1 blockchain that achieves the programmability of Ethereum, the privacy of Zcash, and the scalability of a rollup.
Interested in building private applications? Check out Aleo’s programming language called Leo that enables non-cryptographers to harness the power of ZKPs to deploy decentralized exchanges, hidden information games, regulated stablecoins, and more. Visit http://developer.aleo.org.
