When everyone switches to binary fields, we can call them binary proofs. I also would prefer CS proofs, for "cryptographically secure". Also harkens back to Micali's "computationally sound proofs", the first real SNARK construction. Or AX proofs for "arithmetic execution" proofs. People like ZK but Z is zesty, but AX is sexy.

Funnest new math thing is in our new paper :-) We discovered a way of understanding a binary NTT algorithm, different from how it was originally described, that makes it compatible with FRI. https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/504

There's a new thing every month! The specific type of binary field Binius uses, the Wiedemann tower, is incredibly elegant But the real answer is something new that Ben (our cryptographer) and I figured out a few weeks ago. More details to come soon. 😁

Interesting question. Growing the eng team from ~10 to almost 20 in a short amount of time. And figuring out how to ramp everyone up on very technical HW & ZK stuff.

My co-founder Radi and I recently went on the ZK Podcast to talk about the new binary field proof system our team is developing, Binius, and our ZK hardware accelerators https://zeroknowledge.fm/303-2/

My team wrote up a post on accelerating a subroutine of Polygon's STARKs with high performance hardware! https://www.ulvetanna.io/news/fpga-architecture-for-goldilocks-ntt

Well, it all starts with rational functions over the group of r-torsion point on an elliptic curve... Remco's blog has a great page on it https://xn--2-umb.com

A Dell XPS 15 with Ubuntu LTS. If this is your main/only computer, Ubuntu is awesome.
