RISC Zero: A general-purpose validator will be launched on multiple chains.

zero-knowledge proof software developer RISC Zero stated on social media that it will launch a universal verifier on multiple chains, which is the 3rd step in its zkVM (zero-knowledge virtual machine) 1.0 release roadmap (out of 4 steps).

It is reported that this universal verifier enables blockchains and developers to leverage verifiable off-chain execution, allowing developers to run Rust programs in RISC Zero's zkVM, generate proofs, and seamlessly verify them on-chain.
