What is Autheo's approach to zero-knowledge proofs?
Autheo's ZK proof architecture was designed to make privacy-preserving computation practical for production applications, combining EVM-native verification with DCC-powered proof generation and NIST PQC-secured identity.
Autheo supports zero-knowledge proof verification natively on its EVM-compatible Layer-1, all Ethereum ZK proof verification precompiles work without modification. ZK proof generation (which is computationally intensive) is handled by Autheo's DCC compute layer, allowing dApps to generate proofs off-chain and verify them on-chain at low cost. AutheoID's post-quantum cryptography complements ZK proofs with additional privacy guarantees.
