StarkWare verifies first zero-knowledge proof on Bitcoin

StarkWare’s milestone opens the door for ZK-based layer-2 solutions, enhancing Bitcoin’s scalability and global payment capabilities.

StarkWare has achieved a historic milestone by successfully verifying its first zero-knowledge (ZK) proof using its new STARK verifier on the Bitcoin Signet network.

The development follows three months of firm exploration of the possibilities of OP_CAT, the technical proposal aimed at expanding the capabilities of the Bitcoin blockchain.

The verifier lays the foundation for developing ZK-based layer-2 (L2) solutions to improve BTC scalability and push forward toward global payment opportunities.
