A lot of the ZKVMs that we've been learning about use Starks or they use Fry and Snarks somehow. We'll do like a recursion step using something that Starks actually uses as well. But in our case, it's a particularly easy like please fetch this content addressable storage that hashes to X or whatever,. And then you can verify that it actually hashing to that.
In this week’s episode, Anna and Guillermo chat with Brian Retford and Jeremy Bruestle from RISC Zero. They discuss their previous work in cloud infrastructure and how ZK offered unique solutions to long standing scaling problems. They cover topics like RISC-V, building VMs, and how RISC Zero aims to build a system which could support a decentralized public cloud.

If you’re a developer looking to get hands-on experience building zero knowledge applications then you should apply for Mina’s zkApp Beta Testers Leaderboard.
Participants will get access to test challenges where you can learn how to build zkApps on Mina for a chance to rank on the leaderboard against other participants. The top participants will have the opportunity to be considered for a grant!
