Description
On July 9, 2026, Input Output Research (IOR) hosted the first in a series of technical workshops under Cardano Vision 26. The aim of these workshops is to drive specifications, requirements, and roadmap discussions, including engineering handover.
This zero-knowledge (ZK) verification workshop presents working prototypes for a Groth16 BN254 to BLS12-381 proof converter, Halo2 verifier cost estimator, and findings evaluating Plonky3’s feasibility - informing future Layer 1 scaling infrastructure.
Fergie Miller, Director of Research Partnerships, and Jesus Diaz Vico, Applied Cyrptography Lead at Input Output Group, hosted the workshop.
