zkFold is a project focused on wrapping Plutus scripts for Cardano with zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs). Their product, zkWrapper, takes any Untyped Plutus Core (UPLC) script as input and generates a zero-knowledge version.Key features and benefits of zkWrapper include: No script length limit: Bypasses the Cardano transaction size limit. No CEK execution budget limit: The original script runs off-chain, and the on-chain wrapper script only verifies the proof of execution.No redeemer or datum size limit: The actual data is represented through short polynomial commitments, reducing transaction size. However, public data critical for smart contract state is not hashed, maintaining the trust model.Private Smart Contracts: zkWrapper allows for the creation of private smart contracts since the original script isn’t submitted on-chain.Learn more about the platform at https://zkfold.io

One of the parts when it comes to building decentralised applications is the infrastructure that is required. This allows DApps to query the blockchain, get data and information that it requires and display it on a web interface. Furthermore, it allows the DApp to create transactions and interactions with the blockchain. Without this infrastructure, it makes it harder and costly to interact with the blockchain.Maestro comes into play allowing DApp developers to quickly and easily interact with the blockchain via a Application Programming Interface or API. APIs are common in the web development space and makes for an easy and understandable way for developers to get and push data to and from the blockchain.Maestro has successfully launched its new series of features to allow for developers to build better and more engaging DApps.You can find out more about the V1 release at: https://www.gomaestro.org/blog/platform-v1-launchChapters00:00 Intro02:02 How were people querying on-chain data before? 03:04 Scope and features Maestro provides 05:15 Event notifications 06:55 Turbo transactions 08:31 Costs for using Maestro 09:59 Getting started with Maestro 11:17 Future plans 11:46 DeFi Analytics 13:48 Library of Open Source Contracts with Anastasia Labs Partnership 16:55 Will these smart contracts be audited? 18:04 Integration with Optim Bonds 20:37 Decentralisation of Maestro 22:48 Building on Maestro 25:28 Final comments Catalyst Proposalshttps://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/106445https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/105135https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/105183https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/104382https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/102983https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/102990
