🔐 ETHEREUM ZK DEVELOPMENT JUST GOT ITS FIRSTBLE NOIR RELEASE One of Ethereum's main zero-knowledge tools has officially reached version 1.0. NOIR 1.0 IS LIVE. Noir is an open source programming language designed for building zero-knowledge applications without forcing developers to write low-level cryptographic circuits by hand. Release 1.0 introduces a stable language specification, inverter, and toolchain, plus Telegram that has undergone a dedicated, fuzzy security audit, and extensive testing. Neuer is already forcing the private smart contracts and protocol circuits behind Aztec. But it can also be used independently for applications that need to prove something without revealing the underlying information. Think private identity checks, financial proofs, authentication or secret application logic. The announcement comes just before Alpha Network's next milestone. Zero-knowledge proofs are becoming increasingly important to Ethereum's privacy map and roadmap. And the key that revolves around them starts to look less experimental. NOIR 1.0 is another step in that direction. @EumNews.
