ME News update: On April 7 (UTC+8), Cysic officially announced the open-sourcing of its Graph-First zkVM proof framework, Venus. Venus is built on ZisK. Rather than using the traditional HAL mode that treats the proving process as a series of isolated backend functions, it encodes the entire ZK proving pipeline into a single global computation graph, decoupling logic from hardware execution. Testing shows that, compared with the existing ZisK 0.16.1, Venus improves end-to-end proving time by more than 9%. CPU-GPU synchronization overhead is significantly reduced, and it is compatible with GPUs, FPGAs, and even ASICs. Cysic has been listed as an integrated partner of Ethproofs, and will directly run as an Ethereum zkEVM node. The ZisK zkVM on which Venus is based uses a customized instruction set and is one of the five zkVMs explicitly listed as candidates in the official discussion of the Ethereum EIP-8025 upgrade. As a result, Cysic directly enters the core track of the Ethereum L1 proof market. (Source: ChainCatcher)
