• How to Implement a ZK rollup

  These solutions already exist in our days. An example of this is the mina protocol, where smart contracts run off-chain and the PoS validators only collect and store the transactions.

If we can make the validator requirements lighter, it'd be better. Source: over 1 year ago

• Why we need Decentralization and Web3+

  What 'exactly'? Mina [0][1] is a 'blockchain' that doesn't rely on third party server and is small enough to run on a phone and on smaller devices; making it extremely decentralized to run a node on anywhere. Not all blockchains are the same and some are better than others.
