ZK proofs are the holy grail of crypto scaling, but they've been TOO SLOW for real-world use.
Until now.
@cysic_xyz's custom C1 chip is about to change everything we thought we knew about ZK proofs. This is hardware acceleration like we've never seen before.
The numbers are mind-blowing:

• Their FPGA tech handles X million gates per second
• Verification times drop from hours to minutes
This isn't incremental improvement, it's a quantum leap that makes theoretical ZK use cases suddenly practical.
