Programming in Zero Knowledge

Presented at A New HOPE (2022), July 24, 2022, 1 p.m. (120 minutes).

Zero-knowledge proofs are primitives for proving the integrity of arbitrary computation over confidential information. They are used in applications like private digital cash and anonymous voting. In this workshop, you will learn the theory behind zero-knowledge proving systems, and try your hand at writing a few circuits. The session will also brainstorm ideas for more private applications that can be built.


Presenters:

  • Ying Tong
    **Ying Tong** is a core engineer working on the Zcash project. She builds zero-knowledge circuits and proving systems for private currency, virtual machines, and other applications. She looks forward to a world where private and verifiably correct communication is the norm.
