Context
The emergence of verifiable computing is transforming the blockchain industry faster than expected. Just a few years ago, applied Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) systems were only conceptual; today, they are already securing billions of transactions.
While early applications of ZKP in the blockchain industry (particularly within Ethereum) relied on the development of complex, highly customized low-level solutions, recent technological advances have split the responsibilities between engineering and proving.
It is now possible to build verifiable software without being a cryptographer!
Our Mission
Kakarot Vision and Mission
- Vision: All software will be provably secure, making blockchains the world settlement layer.
- Mission: To build the world's most efficient proving engine for Ethereum-equivalent systems enabling world class scalability and security with minimal ressources.
Core Values
Collaboration – Working with the best minds in the ZK space.
Creativity – Encouraging novel solutions to complex problems.
Pragmatism – Focused on real-world applications and scalability.
Key Technical Messages
- Superior Performance Through Proof-First Architecture
- While others compete on reducing cost per cycle, Kakarot achieves orders of magnitude better performance by optimizing both the number of cycles and cost per cycle. Our Cairo-based design offers a 10x reduction in ZK-VM cycles compared to RISC-V alternatives.
- Lightweight and Modular by Design
- Our approach of building an EVM on top of a ZK-VM makes Kakarot extremely adaptable and efficient. We can easily update for major protocol changes and will benefit from future cryptographic improvements without changing our code.
- Massive Market Opportunity
- With billions of Ethereum-equivalent blocks produced yearly and a projected $1.5B TAM by 2028, Kakarot is positioned to become the standard proving engine for the entire EVM ecosystem - from L1s to rollups, bridging Bitcoin to Ethereum through mathematically proven security.
