zkVerify Introduces Decentralized SQL Verifier for Space and Time’s SXT Chain 5026

zkVerify delivers faster, cost-effective SQL data verification with enhanced security and privacy for data-intensive applications.

zkVerify, the modular blockchain for ZK-proof verification, has launched a decentralized proof verifier for Space and Time‘s Proof of SQL ZK coprocessor on SXT Chain. By leveraging zkVerify’s verification of SXT proofs, organizations can verify their ZK-proven SQL queries faster and more efficiently compared to Ethereum verification.

Space and Time’s Proof of SQL ZK coprocessor employs zero-knowledge proofs to validate SQL queries run against data stored on SXT Chain, its recently launched blockchain for ZK-proven data. zkVerify functions as a decentralized proof verifier within this system for Space and Time’s Proof of SQL, offering fast, on-chain confirmation of query accuracy without relying on any central authority.

Traditional smart contracts face limitations in accessing external or historical transaction data, which restricts their functionality. Space and Time’s SXT Chain addresses this by acting as a decentralized database that aggregates data across major blockchains—Ethereum, ZKsync, Bitcoin, Sui, Aptos, and Polygon, and proves it back to smart contracts with Proof of SQL. This setup enables trustless, cross-chain data processing, allowing smart contracts to efficiently query, analyze, and utilize data.

As concerns about data manipulation and AI-generated content increase, Space and Time, coupled with zkVerify’s technology, allow organizations to prove the integrity of their data without exposing the underlying information. For example, financial institutions can verify transaction records, healthcare providers can ensure patient data remains accurate, and AI applications can confirm the authenticity of their outputs—all using mathematical proofs instead of relying on trust alone.

Launched in October 2024, Space and Time’s SXT Chain testnet lets developers query historical data from major blockchains like Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Polygon, generating mathematical proofs that ensure data integrity. In August 2024, Space and Time raised $20 million in Series A with funding from Microsoft’s M12 Venture, Framework Ventures, Lightspeed Faction, Arrington Capital and Hivemind Capital.

How does it work?

Using zero-knowledge proofs to create a proof of correct computation, like Proof of SQL, has three essential elements: the actual data, the creation of the proof, and the verification of that proof. These components must work together in a rapid, straightforward, decentralized, and permissionless manner to enable a seamless, trustless system.

The Proof of SQL mechanism operates by generating a mathematical hash of a SQL table’s content, which is then used to generate a ZK proof that neither the table nor the queries run against have been tampered. Space and Time’s high-speed ZK coprocessor creates these proofs, and zkVerify is used to validate them using their public, decentralized blockchain. This enables businesses and decentralized applications to share data or query results with provable SQL database integrity, verifiable by anyone without relying on centralized entities.

In its role as the proof verifier, zkVerify adds a crucial layer of trust and security, ensuring that each SQL query validated by Proof of SQL on the SXT Chain is accurate and tamper-proof. With zkVerify, data queries and results can be trusted across the network, empowering advanced decentralized applications, such as DeFi platforms, data-intensive analytics, and Solidity smart contracts deployed directly on SXT’s ZK rollup. This integration amplifies the potential for on-chain applications by enabling access to verified, cross-chain data in real-time, paving the way for more sophisticated decentralized services.

Rob Viglione, CEO of Horizen Labs, the development studio behind zkVerify, said: “Zero-knowledge proofs redefine trust in digital systems by providing mathematical assurance of data integrity without exposing sensitive information. This technology allows businesses to verify the accuracy of their data transparently and securely, without relying on third-party auditors. For sectors like finance and healthcare, it’s a paradigm shift from ‘trust us’ to ‘we can prove it,’ bringing a new level of confidence to data handling.”

About zkVerify

zkVerify is a modular blockchain dedicated to efficiently verifying ZK proofs across diverse blockchain stacks, created for Ellipsis Distributed Systems by Horizen Labs. It enables any Layer 2 projects and dApp developers that utilize zero knowledge to scale rapidly and cost-effectively by drastically reducing proof verification costs without compromising network performance.

Designed for seamless integration with existing blockchain networks, zkVerify minimizes technical overhead and provides a developer-friendly environment. By simplifying the ZK proof verification process and reducing associated costs, zkVerify enhances the performance of existing blockchain networks and unlocks new capabilities within the broader Web3 ecosystem.

Polymer Launches Real-Time Interoperability For Ethereum Rollups 4971

Polymer Labs has officially launched Polymer Hub, a real-time interoperability protocol for connecting all Ethereum rollups. By streaming messages, states, and logs over IBC primitives (equivalent to Web2’s TCP/IP), Polymer Hub verifies and stores the headers of all connected rollups, allowing applications to prove any arbitrary state across rollups at vastly reduced overhead.

Rollup/L2 ecosystems have historically connected only within their own walled gardens; with Polymer, however, rollups can now communicate across ecosystems and coordinate as fast as they can produce blocks. The protocol offers significant improvements in cross-chain communication latency, bandwidth, and cost for all on-chain primitives compared to existing solutions.

Polymer aims to make cross-chain interoperability as fast, efficient, and affordable as blockspace itself, enabling Ethereum applications to scale to the next million users.

Increase Bandwidth Reduce Latency

Real-time, high-throughput rollups are right around the corner, but existing interoperability protocols (point-to-point and hub-and-spoke models) were not designed to support dense network traffic across hundreds of rollups. According to the team, existing solutions are too slow and expensive for the next generation of applications on Ethereum. As we enter this new era, interoperability solutions must complement their speed and efficiency. Real-time apps require real-time interoperability.

Polymer aims to build the fastest and most efficient interoperability protocol for next-generation rollups like MegaETH. The Hub passes messages in real-time via sequencer pre-confirmations, ensuring cross-chain communication latency can keep up with millisecond block times of these rollups. Polymer also leverages EigenDA to scale cross-rollup bandwidth to facilitate data-intensive use cases on-chain.

“Real-timeness, the ability to react to inputs with ultra-low latency at massive scale, will enable truly ground-breaking decentralized applications. Readying the infra stack for this revolution will be a joint effort, in which real-time interoperability from Polymer will be crucial.” – Lei Yang (Cofounder & CTO MegaETH)

Various technologies like shared sequencers and ecosystem-native interoperability intra-nets have fragmented Ethereum into rollup clusters; these clusters, however, can leverage Polymer Hub’s one-to-all architecture to become interoperable with each other within minutes, rather than months. Polymer Hub is also the first interoperability solution to offer re-org protection. This helps enable token bridges and solver networks to safely settle cross-chain transactions in milliseconds and automatically revert them if they deviate from Ethereum’s L1 history.

Looking Ahead

The next generation of on-chain applications will closely follow the architecture of cloud apps: rollups are the new microservices, AVSs are the new infrastructure services. To enable horizontal scaling on-chain, cross-chain infrastructure must be low-latency, high-bandwidth, and affordably scalable.

The Polymer team seeks to improve interoperability performance in order to enable competitive, novel categories of applications, such as high throughput e-commerce and ride-sharing, to be built on-chain.

“Building interoperable applications that don’t trade off cost or latency is a requirement to make crypto usable again. At scale, this connective layer needs to be as robust and secure as the Ethereum base layer itself, and Polymer has been uncompromising in achieving this vision.” – Vikram Arun (Cofounder & CEO Superform Labs)

Starting with the OP stack, Polymer plans to bring real-time interoperability to all rollup ecosystems on Ethereum—enabling swift and cost-effective scaling for applications in the near future.
