Hardware Operators
Compute proofs & earn rewards
Former miner, gamer, or perhaps a data uses zk center operator with spare GPUs and access to cheap electricity? Monetize your resources by generating zk proofs for rollups, bridges, dexes, games, DIDs or generalized VMs.
Software Developers
Improve UX by delegating proofs
Developing an app or service that proofs but not interested in spending countless hours on devops? Integrate our SDK to automatically route proof generation requests from clients to the permissionless Kalypso prover network.
DecentralizedTrustless matching engine
Orderbook-based exchange architecture to connect specialized hardware operators with ZK-powered application users
Plug-and-play
Modular architecture with seamless integration options extensible through various zkVMs
Flexible
Ability to prioritize cost or speed anytime with the option to join or leave markets as a user or hardware operator
Open
Arbitrary circuits and proving schemes with no lock-in along with a choice of local, hosted or open market solutions
AdvantagesWhy decentralize
proving?
Liveness
Improve reliability guarantees and probability of timely proof generation through greater redundancy and strict penalties for failures
Efficiency
Increase resource utilization and reduce idle time of hardware by serving multiple apps, hence amortizing fixed cost and saving BD and setup time
Censorship-resistance
Prevent apps from being vulnerable to the whims of provers who refuse to generate proofs for transactions that are against their interests
RobustBuilt on Marlin
Share secret inputs by harnessing the security of secure enclaves
Encrypted communication channels
Proxy re-encryption is used when sharing data between the matching engine and the prover's enclaves
Confidentiality of user data
Prevents stalling or battery loss at the client device while being as private as local compute
Consumer hardware
Machines with Intel SGX chips or AMD SEV support can be used by operators for use cases with low computational requirements
DesignPerformant, reliable and secure
There's no such thing as a wrong proof. Users either get a valid proof on time or the prover is slashed.
ECOSYSTEMBuild on Kalypso
A lightweight, modular and extensible architecture with support to build both centralized and decentralized offerings
Subscriptions
Protocols with recurring demand for proofs may benefit from capacity allocation, prioritization and discounts
Derivatives
Enable hedging against variable demand and pricing through futures and options markets
Niche markets
Develop proof markets for specialized segments while still leveraging the Kalypso market & matching engine
