what was your 'aha moment' with @ethereum?

the birth of a new financial era.

if @ethereum is the financial backend, why are wallets still the bottleneck? we made it invisible ↓

> Proof System • Goldilocks field, cubic extension, 128 bits of provable security • FRI as polynomial commitment scheme • Fully post-quantum, no elliptic curves > Status • ~27,000 lines today, targeting ~35,000. • Performance is competitive with state-of-the-art zkVMs. • A GPU version and proof-size optimizations are in progress. • @ethrex_client integration is done.

LambdaVM at zkSummit14: A Talk on Our Minimalistic and Performant RISC-V zkVM At zkSummit14 in Rome, @diego_aligned (Co-founder and Head of Research at @alignedlayer) presented LambdaVM, a RISC-V zkVM built collaboratively by @class_lambda, @alignedlayer, and @3milabs. The goal is to make the zkVM easy to understand and easy to audit, using the same philosophy behind @ethrex_client, the execution client developed by @class_lambda. > The Problem Most zkVMs have hundreds of thousands of lines of code, creating huge attack surfaces. Strong cryptographic arguments on paper don't guarantee secure implementations. Supply-chain attacks, subtle dependency bugs, and unnecessary abstractions have repeatedly shown that large, hard-to-audit codebases are fragile by design. > Our Approach Performance through clarity: • Written in Rust • Minimal dependencies, few generics • Code maps 1-to-1 to spec, enabling formal verification 1/

don't trust. verify.

one stack. fully integrated. built for ethereum. @rj_aligned

Why Ethereum?

building on @ethereum shouldn't be complicated. we are working to make sure that is not the case.

Ethereum is my love language.

this is what we're building.

main character

your bank still works like a video rental store. ethereum is the upgrade.

pick your poison. or use ethereum.

the beginning of a new financial era.

.@rj_aligned from @alignedlayer: "If you want verifiable finance, you also need verifiable credentials. You need to bring the trust of existing systems on-chain". This is what @sovraio enables. Verifiable identity on the same backend as finance: Ethereum. The infrastructure making this work: Aligned's RaaS, powered by @ethrex_client.

legacy finance didn't see ethereum coming. the upgrade is already here.

@defyneric 👋

who’s building infra for neobanks?

don't forget.
