Developers on Google Cloud to ‘Verify’ Smart Contracts With Space and Time’s ZK-Proof Protocol
According to
James Tromans,
Head of Web3 at Google Cloud, developers working with Bigquery, his firm’s data warehouse,
can now verify blockchain smart contracts and other business processes using Space and Time’s
zero-knowledge (ZK)-proof protocol. This combination enables developers using Bigquery to “cryptographically confirm” if computed results are accurate or if the data has not been tampered with.
In addition, the capabilities of
Time and Space’s ZK database will make it possible for developers and enterprises to build Large Language Models (LLMs) which are
“trained on a verifiable dataset and data-driven smart contracts.”
For his part,
Nate Holiday, the CEO and co-founder of Space and Time, noted that enterprises already
“demand verifiability throughout their stacks.” In the CEO’s opinion, such demand will only accelerate hence his company’s collaboration with Google Cloud which lays
“the groundwork for the verify-everything future.”
As noted in the statement, Space and Time’s decentralized data
warehouse is now available to deploy from the Google Cloud marketplace. The Web3 company’s collaboration with Google Cloud gives the former enhanced partner benefits
“including development and go-to-market support.”
