ZKsync launches high-performance universal Zero-Knowledge Proof tool ZKsync Airbender
Gate News bot message, ZKsync announced the launch of ZKsync Airbender, a high-performance general Zero-Knowledge Proof device (ZK prover) designed to meet real-world demands for interoperability, Decentralization, and scalability without compromise.
It is claimed that Airbender has become the fastest open-source RISC-V zkVM. In benchmarks, Airbender outperforms other leading systems by a wide margin. It achieves:
Sub-second ZKsync block proof, achievable in about 3 seconds using a single commercial GPU;
About 4-6 times faster than the closest competitor;
Achieve the fastest proof speed on a single H100 (21.8 million cycles per second at the base layer, 8.5 million cycles per second end-to-end);
With just a single GPU, the proof of Ethereum blocks can be completed in an average of 35 seconds (compared to the current setup, which requires 50-160 GPUs for a 12-second proof, depending on the size of the block).
Airbender can prove Ethereum blocks without recursion in 17 seconds, showing that real-time proving on a single GPU is entirely feasible.
These performance improvements indicate that blockchain can achieve real-time coordination and settlement, developers can build client applications with locally generated proofs, and the entire ecosystem will benefit from faster, cheaper, and more Decentralization infrastructure.
