The Mina Foundation welcomed Evan Shapiro and others onto the team this week.
Mina's zk-SNARKs solve a large scalability problem — the ever-growing blockchain, enabling anyone to run a node using commodity hardware, keeping the network inclusive and decentralized. However, creating those zk-SNARKs (aka proofs) is expensive but Mina’s Snarketplace fixes that.
Cryptocurrency’s scalability and privacy is one of the most pressing issues across any blockchain ecosystem — whether that’s Bitcoin, Ethereum, or a DeFi token. In this article we go over how zkApps solve the industry’s greatest challenges.
Least Authority has recently concluded a security audit on Clor.io Wallet, a non-custodial wallet developed by Mina community members.
As CEO of the Mina Foundation, Evan Shapiro will lead the organization's mission to support the ecosystem and development of Mina Protocol with o1Labs continuing to support the development of zkApps as Mina’s ecosystem partner.
The Mina Foundation is distributing more than 2.3 million MINA tokens to community members, as part of Mina's Prism grants program, for significant contributions to its ecosystem.
Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) are the two most common types of consensus mechanisms found in cryptocurrency protocols. Learn more about each and Mina's specific type of PoS consensus, called Ouroboros Samasika.

Legacy blockchains, such as Bitcoin or Dogecoin, face the problem of long waits to verify the entire chain due to their ever-growing size. However, with Mina, participants will be able to fully verify the network and transactions from their ordinary devices using recursive zero knowledge proofs, or zk-SNARKs.
Mina is a decentralized layer one that leverages zero-knowledge (ZK) technology to achieve scalable, verifiable computation. Its unique proving system, Kimchi, allows for the verification of any amount of computation, proofs from other chains, or even internet proofs, resulting in a single, easily verifiable proof on Mina.
Users of Mina JavaScript client-sdk should upgrade to the 1.0.1 release of the client-sdk urgently.
How did you get involved in blockchain? I got involved in blockchain starting in 2013, I mined some dogecoin back then =) Wow, what do you think about all that’s been happening with dogecoin recently? Well, it has been a long time since I mined and sadly I don’t have any dogecoin left. The rise […]
Mina uses advanced cryptography and recursive zk-SNARKs to deliver true decentralization at scale.
Getting started with ZK on Mina is simple.
