On Thursday, the Mina Protocol team announced via X that the Mina Foundation has partnered with Orochi Network to advance the zkDatabase solution. The partnership focuses on bridging enterprise needs with zero-knowledge tech, offering efficient data verification while maintaining privacy.
Mina Protocol explained that zkDatabase stands out as one of the first off-chain data solutions in the Mina ecosystem, featuring full support for Kimchi proofs and Pickles recursion.
The collaboration will enable verifiable data solutions across multiple sectors,, including FinTech, IoT, Healthcare, and AI/ML. It will also address key challenges in client-side proofing and data retrieval for distributed storage applications.
Mina is a layer-1 protocol with a succinct blockchain. The current blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum store hundreds of gigabytes of data, and their blockchains will only increase in size over time. MINA is down 8% in the last 24 hours, trading at $0.6269 at press time.
