if youre on Solana and haven't thought about @HeliusPrivacy, I humbly advise you to start here:

if youre on Solana and haven't thought about @HeliusPrivacy, I humbly guarantee you will fall behind your competitors and your users' wants

ZK at Solana scale is a hell of a challenge, but we've done it and it will change Solana permanently

To use the SDK, just swap a few function calls.

Methods are a superset of SPL-token, returning the same Account types.

Human verification needs to scale to billions of users. That’s why we’re partnering with @LightProtocol.

Using ZK Compression, VeryAI records verification events on @solana with compressed accounts that are ~5,000× cheaper than standard accounts.

The result: verifiable onchain user data.

Proof of Reality for the new internet.

Today, we're introducing the Light token program, a high-performance token standard for rent-free DeFi on @solana.

It reduces the cost of allocating onchain accounts by 200x while being more CU efficient than SPL-token on hot paths.

The program achieves this by sponsoring Solana‘s rent-exemption cost to allocate hot accounts and compressing inactive (cold) accounts.

Our interface SDKs make it easy to load cold accounts without trading off UX.

Built a zk ID example with compressed accounts. - private onchain id verification with Groth16 zk proofs - compressed pdas to nullify id verification for an event - no custom indexer required, Rpcs already index compressed accounts in state trees link below
