A multi-chain synchronization protocol that leverage zero knowledge proof to minimize communication trust base (2209.02974v1)

Abstract: Delphinus cross-chain aggregator is a universal firmware which synchronise states between different smart contracts on different block-chains. In the world of block-chains, synchronization challenges are two-folded. Firstly, contracts from different main block-chain can not communicate with each other which makes it hard to establish a trustworthy communication channel for them to share and maintain a universal state between each other. Secondly, transactions on different block-chains can hardly be ordered thus conflicts are common and we need a novel way to avoid and handle these conflicts. Delphinus cross-chain aggregator is a ZKSNARK based multi-block-chain layer on top of which rich cross chain applications can run safely and efficiently.
