Vitalik Buterin says the top priority for zkEVMs should now shift to security following ZKsync’s Airbender milestone, which demonstrated real time proof generation on a single GPU.
Airbender reportedly generated proofs for 99% of 7,200 consecutive Ethereum blocks in under 10 seconds. That’s a major step toward making zero knowledge proofs practical at Ethereum’s pace.
But speed alone isn’t enough. Vitalik wants stronger formal verification, accurate execution of Ethereum’s specifications, and proof systems that can be trusted.
The next challenge isn’t just proving transactions faster. It’s proving they’re correct and secure.
