17. Gate.io Research: Application of Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) in Blockchain

The report suggests that:
1. ZKPs, or zero-knowledge protocols, have not been applied to real- world scenarios until the arrival of Blockchain.
2. As the first ever Blockchain that adopts ZKPs, Zcash uses specific ZKPs called zk-SNARKs (zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge).
3. Zcash makes it possible to allow transactions to be verified without revealing the sender, receiver, or transaction amount.
4. Zk-Snarks enable one party (the prover) to prove to another (the verifier) that a statement is true, without revealing any information beyond the validity of the statement itself.
5. It is expected to be a pivotal area on ensuring privacy while in the meantime guarding against the malicious abuse of privacy mechanisms as ZKPs continue to play a significant role in the Blockchain eco.
