⛽️ Gas Fee Reimbursement

The recent illicit DDoS attack has temporarily impacted gas fees. Any gas payments >0.001 ETH on Manta Pacific from 9:30 UTC on Jan 18, 2024 (the time of TGE) to 4:30 UTC on Jan 20, 2024 will be reimbursed to users.

mantanetwork.medium.com/gas-fee-reimbu… On January 18, 2024, at 9:30AM UTC, Manta Pacific experienced an illicit DDoS attack that severely impeded access to its RPCs. Manta Network is working with authorities and various legal council to take action as a next step against this illegal attack.

Introducing the @MantaNetwork New Paradigm: The only live Ethereum L2 with native yield for ETH and stablecoins.

We’ve raised $60m from @Polychain, @BinanceLabs, @coinfund_io and others.

Details on how to get PENTA Yield and access at the end of the thread👇 Image Why Another Yield-bearing L2?

As the only live yield-bearing L2, Manta Pacific gives immediate token access on the L2 after depositing ETH or USDC on Ethereum. Image

Shielding transactions with Mantapay requires a #zkaddress. This should not be confused with the Manta Network address. What are the differences? Substrate addresses store and manage assets on the @Polkadot and @kusamanetwork ecosystems. Transactions are recorded on a public ledger.

What is an EVM and zkEVM? (incoming mega thread) Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) is the environment in which Ethereum accounts and smart contracts operate. It is the rule for calculating new, valid states from one block to another in Ethereum.

A thread to finish off our #WhyZK series: the tl;dr

There’re two participants in #zkps: provers and verifiers. Provers provide ‘proofs’ of a statement, and verifiers verify it without giving additional information.

Let’s continue our #WhyZK series:
In our last thread, we used a Sudoku game to explain some terms and the properties of ZK. In this thread, we’ll keep using Sudoku to explain the concept of Interactive Proof and Non-Interactive Proof.
Dr. Strange proved that he could solve a Sudoku puzzle without telling Hulk how he solved it. The next day, Hulk said, 'Why don't we live stream the game online?' Dr. Strange thought it was a great idea, so they started a Youtube channel and asked Iron Man to join as ops manager.

#WhyZK continued:
This thread is the first part of the “Simple explanation of Zero-Knowledge Proof” series. In this series, we’ll try our best to explain concepts and terms related to zero-knowledge proof in a Sudoku example that’s easy to understand.
In classic Sudoku, we play it on a grid of 9x9 space. There will be nine boxes made up of 3x3 spaces. Each box, each column, and each row should be filled out with numbers from 1 to 9 exactly once each.

Both Doctor Strange and Hulk love playing the Sudoku game.

In this thread, let's talk about #whyZK matters and why ZK will be one of the main narratives in the next cycle #WhyZK

At @EFDevcon, more than 20% of talks were about ZK. @RaeWrh summarized here docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… During the @VitalikButerin's ZK talk on day 1 of Devcon, @VitalikButerin emphasized that ZK is the preferred scaling method for blockchain. The censorship-resistant feature that blockchain provides sacrificed ‘scalability’ and ‘privacy:’ this is where ZK-SNARKs fit in.

The Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) Model is a fundamental element of Bitcoin that stops double-spending. It defines where a blockchain transaction starts and finishes. We don’t actually own “tokens:” each of our wallets is made of a collection of UTXOs. For example, Bob has 0.4 BTC in his wallet. We see this as a fraction of a coin, but actually what Bob may own is 2 UTXOs worth .25 and .15 BTC. If Bob wants to send .2 BTC to Alice, he will need to send his UTXO unit of .25, which then will break up into .2 and .05.

We had a great panel in partnership with @fuellabs_ at @ETHBerlin last week on how privacy+modularity bring the next billion users to Web 3. Catch the video play here or read along the thread for a TLDR crowdcast.io/e/fuel-x-manta… Modularity lets dapps easily spin up blockchains for very specific use cases, and a multi-chain world will allow them to communicate to each other seamlessly. @Yazanator

🧑‍🏫 time: zkAssets

Why did @MantaNetwork create #zkAssets, and what are they?

zkAssets are natively (on-chain) private crypto assets, guarded by zero-knowledge proofs. They contain all properties of normal crypto assets, and add a layer of configurable privacy. Some properties: Image 🤸 Flexible Asset Types

zkAssets can be any asset type: fungible (eg tokens), non-fungible (eg #NFTs), and non-transferrable non-fungible (eg #soulbound)

🤔 Why do Zero-Knowledge Proofs Matter?

A Zero-Knowledge Proof (#ZKP) has evolved from an idea in GMR’s paper 20 years ago to a technology that empowers many Web3 companies.

Why is it so important and why is @MantaNetwork betting on it? Here’s a thread: In cryptography, encryption is a process of converting plaintext (readable text) into ciphertext (unreadable text). #ZKP, however, is a higher-level encryption on computation. It’s like proving you know 3+5=8 without revealing how.

ZKSNARKS are carrying the torch of privacy held by cypherpunks and crypto-anarchists since the dawn of the internet. Yesterday's community call was about how we use ZKs in crypto to validate info without access.

A quick look at some of the words we use in the privacy world 👇 🔒 ZK: Zero Knowledge; it is a type of cryptographic proof. It refers to the confidentiality and privacy of information between users without compromising their security.

🤔 What is @MantaNetwork's OpenZL? A thread >>

"Manta has recently launched #OpenZL... These initiatives are very important. As we spend more time on this tech, we should [think] about tooling."

@rahulmaganti_ from @jump_ spoke about it on @ZKValidator

youtube.com/clip/Ugkx6YA_K… Image OpenZL is an initiative that we started at @MantaNetwork to make it easier for devs who aren't cryptography experts to build zero-knowledge proofs into their applications. We're making it easier for everyone to use #ZKP.

Current solutions for building fall under two categories:
