Recently, a set of cryptographic primitives called zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) agitated the world of public blockchains and distributed ledgers. ZKPs came up first as a solution to privacy issues but they have lately also stood up as a perfect solution to scalability issues. As a result, these cryptographic proofs have become very attractive tools to the blockchain community, and the most efficient algorithms have already been deployed and integrated in several applications. A zero-knowledge proof is a protocol that enables one party, called the prover, to convince another, the verifier, that a statement is true without revealing any information beyond the veracity of the statement. For example, a prover can create proofs for statements like the following: Non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs (NIZK) proofs are a particular type of zero-knowledge proofs in which the prover can generate the proof without interaction with the verifier. NIZK protocols are very suitable for Ethereum block
