Bring

@noisebody0x and @loground asked me to draft a diagram how Bring will work under the hood.

Here’s the minimal base layer version using Instagram data as an example:

1. User logs in to their Instagram account and requests relevant data (e.g. followers count)
2. Instagram server returns user data. The response is signed with TLS signature.
3. User locally on their device generate zero-knowledge proof (or zkTLS webproof) by providing the data and instagram TLS signature.
4. User calls the escrow contract to claim tokens providing webproof and destination address 
5. Escrow contract validates the webproof and transfers escrowed tokens to the destination address provided by the user

The beauty of this minimal version is that users never share their data with 3rd parties and there’s no external dependencies. Think - data breaches are impossible in this setup.

That’s why we will introduce a zkBring relayer  to enable gasless claiming:

1. User logs in to their Instagram account and requests relevant data (e.g. followers count)
2. Instagram server returns user data. The response is signed with TLS signature.
3. User locally on their device generate zero-knowledge proof (or zkTLS webproof) by providing the data and instagram TLS signature.
4. User asks zkBring relayer to call the escrow contract to claim tokens providing webproof and destination address 
5. zkBring relayer calls the escrow contract to claim tokens with parameters provided by the user
5. Escrow contract validates the webproof and transfers escrowed tokens to the destination address

Using zkBring relayer will be optional and advanced users will be able to claim by submitting the tx directly (as in the initial minimal version)

However, users will have to submit transactions themselves which is a problem if we want to onboard new users that don’t have ETH to interact with the chain yet.
