StarkWare's S-two prover goes live on Starknet mainnet
StarkWare deployed S-two, its fastest zero-knowledge prover, on Starknet mainnet to prove every transaction. Built on Circle STARKs and the M31 field, S-two generates proofs up to 10 times faster than Stone (which secured StarkNet for six years) and runs efficiently enough for client-side proving on mobile phones.
- S-two enables client-side proofs for private transfers, identity proofs, and verifiable AI—with kakarot proving millions of zk proofs on thousands of smartphone models.
- Faster proving lowers hardware costs and enables decentralized proving with multiple sequencers generating proofs in parallel.
- S-two completes proofs in seconds versus the minutes Stone required, measured in benchmark tests.
