We cover the efficiency techniques used in Halo such as &quot;nested amortization&quot;, how the protocol was developed, what some of the key findings are, and how it fits in with the other recent SNARK-based protocols.  \r\n\n\nWe touch on the following material: \r\n\nhttps://www.zeroknowledge.fm/76 (Sean Bowe on SNARKs, Trusted Setups and Elliptic Curve Cryptography)\r\n\nhttps://github.com/daira/tweedle (https://github.com/daira/tweedle)\r\n\nhttps://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1021.pdf (Halo whitepaper)\r\n\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomorphism (Endomorphism)\r\n\nhttps://www.zeroknowledge.fm/113 (Latest recursive SNARKitecture with Izaak Meckler from O(1)Labs)\r\n\nhttps://www.zeroknowledge.fm/114 (Exploring the Fractal transparent SNARK construction) \r\n\n\n\n\nIf you like what we do: \r\n\nFollow us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/zeroknowledgefm (@zeroknowledgefm)\r\n\nJoin us on https://t.me/joinchat/B_81tQ57-ThZg8yOSx5gjA (Telegram)\r\n\nSupport our https://gitcoin.co/grants/329/zero-knowledge-podcast-2 (Gitcoin Grant)\r\n\nSupport us on the https://www.patreon.com/zeroknowledge (ZKPatreon)\r\n\n\nOr directly here: \r\n\nETH: 0xC0FFEE1B5083230a5154F55f253B6b6ae8F29B1a\r\n\nBTC: 1cafekGa3podM4fBxPSQc6RCEXQNTK8Zz\r\n\nZEC: t1R2bujRF3Hzte9ALHpMJvY8t5kb9ut9SpQ \r\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/42773c23-ef25-4ca4-a739-d49e125d9b6f/cover.jpg"}
