Inspired by Urbit’s minimal assembly language, Nockchain fuses Urbit’s vision of sovereign computing with a novel proof-of-useful-work consensus mechanism, creating a blockchain where every computation fuels progress and scaling. The crypto-economics behind Nockchain’s zkVM incentivise competition between zero knowledge provers, ultimately bootstrapping ZKPs as a new computational commodity.

Topics covered in this episode:

  • Logan’s background
  • Urbit’s values
  • Nock, Urbit's minimal assembly language
  • Use cases for zk proofs
  • Nockchain’s zkVM efficiency
  • Useful proof-of-work
  • Launching Nockchain
  • Future roadmap for Nockchain
  • Building apps on Nockchain
  • Store of value vs. revenue generation
  • The impact of quantum computing
