Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) is a cryptographic method in which one party (the prover) can prove to another party (the verifier) that a statement or claim is true, without the need to reveal any information other than the claim.
Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) is a cryptographic protocol that allows one party (the proof) to prove to another party (the verifier) that they possess certain knowledge or information, without the need to disclose that information. In other words, ZKP allows proving the truth of a statement or claim without revealing the data on which the claim is based.
In ZKP, the prover and verifier engage in a cryptographic exchange that involves a challenge and response. The prover provides evidence that convinces the verifier of the truth of the claim without revealing sensitive information. This process is done in such a way that the verifier cannot get any information other than the fact that the claim is true.
ZKP has wide applications in the crypto and blockchain world, such as in privacy protocols, transaction verification, and decentralized identity systems. By using ZKP, users can verify their transactions or identity without the need to reveal sensitive information such as their balance or true identity.
