Independent Evaluations

  • Ziren (v1.1.4) underwent an independent evaluation by Prooflab.

Recommended use cases for Ziren as noted in the report are Bitcoin L2 implementations, hybrid (combining ZK and optimistic) rollups, zkML verification and cross-chain applications. View the full evaluation report for Ziren here.

  • Ziren takes a deliberate architectural bet on MIPS32, prioritizing instruction regularity and constraint uniformity over RISC-V ecosystem convenience (zkVM level instruction efficiency)
