Intro to Nova

Name: Intro to Nova
Duration: 1 h 30 min
Description: Ethereum Foundation researcher Justin Drake introduces Nova, a folding scheme for recursive zero-knowledge proofs, during Zuzalu Montenegro 2023, the pop-up city experiment built around Ethereum-aligned research and governance. He walks through how folding cuts the cost of recursive SNARK verification, tying the technique to ongoing work on scaling proof systems for Layer 2 rollups and zkEVMs.
