Title: To Compute or Not to Compute on FPGA, That is The Question
Speaker: Vladimir Marcin (MAYA-ZK)

Description:
In this presentation, we'll share our experience with implementing zero-knowledge algorithms using FPGA technology. We'll discuss the practical aspects of why we chose FPGA over more common options like GPUs, what challenges we faced, and how we overcame them. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the decision-making process, the technical hurdles, and the innovative solutions we developed along the way. Additionally, we'll talk about our participation in the Zprize competition, highlighting how it pushed us to explore the limits of hardware acceleration for ZK proofs. This is a story about our journey, the lessons we learned, and the insights we gained while competing and working towards making ZK proofs more efficient and accessible.
