Vitalik: zk will transform not just blockchain, but the entire internet On January 27, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin shared at the ETH ChiangMai togETHer Tuesday event that zero-knowledge proofs (zk) not only hold value for privacy and scalability in the blockchain space but also have the potential to extend their applications to broader internet scenarios. zk technology can verify computation results without exposing the original data, offering new solutions in areas like identity verification, algorithm transparency, and large-scale computation verification. He believes that as technologies like zk-SNARKs continue to mature, their application scope is likely to expand further in the coming years. Source: ETH ChiangMai togETHer Tuesday
