Blockchain company Starkware has unveiled zero-knowledge (ZK) Provers Stark to (S-TWO), enabling increased privacy and verification on everyday equipment such as phones, laptops and browsers.
The company said that the new ZK is allowed to generate complicated cryptographic proofs to the new ZK encounter users. This means that users can generate ZK-proof directly on their devices rather than relying on a server or cloud infrastructure, opening the door for rapid and more private applications on the Internet.
“S-two will open the door to prove two everyday appliances, and to the new real-world use matters,” Eli Ben-Sesson, Starkware’s co-founder and CEO stated that the equipment can empower the next wave of ZK applications.
The company stated that the ZK Prover is now available in public alpha and later, its atherium layer -2 scaling solution is set to roll out on Starknet.
Starkware says that the new ZK producers are 39 times faster than the old solutions
Starkware stated that benchmark tests for the S-to ZK Prover showed that it was 39 times faster than the previous solutions. Performance leap enables smooth experiences in secrecy-growing applications.
Upgrade also allows cases in private transactions, ZK-based identity and verification qualified artificial intelligence. Starkware said that S-to CPU runs on the GPU and will soon be on browsers.
Ben-Sesson said, “Over the years we have called the city a magic wand, a device that turns the complex calculation into a simple proof.” “Now, the stick has become a lightsber in your pocket, anything can tease anything from its device, immediately, immediately,.”
According to Starkware, developers can manufacture with S-Two, saying that its alpha release supports hardware goals. In addition, the company said that ZK Ecosystem participants such as Kakrot, Nexus, Zain and Antachen Openlabs have already adopted technology.
Kakarot uses S-two inside ethroofs to generate the ethereum block proof more efficiently, while the Nexus is standardizing the RISC-V mark to align with S-TWO architecture. Meanwhile, ZAN and Antchain Openlabs are adding GPU acceleration to further the performance of the Prover.
S-TWO use cases for zero-knowledge supporter
Oren Katj, the chief operational officer of Starkware, told Cointelegraph that S-TWO marks a shift that ZK-proofs are used in daily life. Creating validity proof in direct devices will allow privacy-conservation facilities in messages, payments and digital identities.
“You can prove that a payment was valid without showing your balance, or verification of identity without disclosing personal details,” Katz said.
Katz said that even salary payment cannot be exposed to full transparency and sensitive information. He called Vikas “a big step towards bringing zero-knowledge technology in the mainstream”.
Beyond privacy, Katz said, local evidence production also uses cases in other industries. The executive told cointelegraph that it could allow gamers to play offline and later generate a cryptographic evidence of their achievements.
“Instead of running all the arguments onchain to prove the integrity, an operator, it can run it on its own server and simply generate a proof that it was executed correctly,” Katz said.

The new Zk provers follow the privacy push of Ethereum
The launch of an advanced ZK supporter of Starware follows the push of Ethereum for better secrecy. On 11 April, Atherium co-founder Vitallic Butlerin published a roadmap, which addressed the Privacy Promotion for Wallet, Decentralized Finance (DEFI) applications and infrastructure.
Baterin advocated implementing privacy-inferior norms and facilities in the Ethereum ecosystem, including adding privacy equipment to the eth purse.
