Matter Labs' Airbender zkVM Achieves 35-Second Ethereum Block Proofs

Matter Labs recently released Airbender, a new state of the art cryptographic prover. Time to test out the newly open-sourced zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM), zkSync devs! In terms of programming frameworks, the ZKsync team says Airbender is the fastest of its kind. This unique framework is built on the open...
