Linea has reached a significant benchmark in their Type 2 zkEVM development, specifically in the polynomial commitment scheme component of their prover.
The system combines several innovative elements:
- Arcane for initial proof generation
- Lattice-based hashing achieving 2.7GB/sec
- Error-correcting codes for data integrity
- Vortex: proprietary polynomial commitment scheme
The lattice-based approach offers advantages over traditional elliptic curve cryptography:
- Enhanced speed
- Recursive proof optimization
- Post-quantum security
The team continues development and refinement of the system, which aims to improve blockchain transaction verification efficiency.
Another step towards blazingly fast Linea prover! We've successfully benchmarked the full polynomial commitment scheme—a critical prover component—with results pointing toward industry-leading performance. We're excited to share more as we continue refining.
We benchmarked Plonky3’s FRI PCS vs Vortex (@LineaBuild’s polynomial commitment scheme). 🚀 Vortex commitment is 3.7× faster under identical parameters. 📊 Benchmark instructions: hackmd.io/@YaoGalteland/… 📚 Theory intro to Vortex: hackmd.io/@YaoGalteland/…
