So there's multiple ways to do a zivm. One is vea transpilation, which is what matter lambs is doing. There's the other approach, which i think is what crawl tech is doing and actually george over at hermes as well. Rihtis evm op codes are actually right exactly. So you run, you un exactly the same computation on etherium, on, like, onageth node, and then you take the execution trace from a transaction and you make a proof out of it.
This week, Anna & Tarun catch up with Georgios Konstantopoulos from Paradigm - a well-known OG crypto VC. They chat about his move to CTO at the firm, the team he has built and what they are working on. Then they dive into Foundry - a fast, portable, modular testing toolkit for Ethereum app dev written in Rust. They discuss the tooling landscape, why Foundry is making a bet on solidity, the different types of testing that developers are doing and other open questions in the field.
