Zk Rollup

1. ZkNode fixes the State Keeper processing logic, processes the received transactions as soon as possible, and optimizes the maximum interval block time;
2. ZkNode optimizes the redundancy problem of State Keeper empty transaction processing, greatly improves the execution speed of transactions, and removes the cache in the Account Sparse Tree to reduce the size of the state;
3. ZkNode improves the generation of JS virtual transactions, fixes the multi-threaded concurrent error transaction problem and conducts the ZkMatrix testnet stress test;
4. Add multi-Prover task concurrent support to ZkNode, adjust the database format and ZkProver interface;
5. ZkProver improves CPU and GPU compilation, adds multi-GPU support, and adjusts the coordination logic with ZkNode;
6. ZkProver fixes thread concurrency error and Prover Job management execution logic;
7. ZkMatrix adds unit testing, code abstraction, testing tools, etc.;

About Cortex 😇

Cortex’s main mission is to provide state-of-the-art machine-learning models on the blockchain in which users can infer using smart contracts on the Cortex blockchain. One of Cortex’s goals also includes implementing a machine-learning platform that allows users to post tasks on the platform, and submit AI DApps (Artificial Intelligence Decentralized Applications).

Cortex is the only public blockchain that allows the execution of nontrivial AI algorithms on the blockchain. MainNet has launched. Go build!
