Project Description:

zkp-co-learning is a Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) collaborative study and creation project that has been running for three terms. Since February 2023, we have studied https://zkiap.com/, zk-learning.org, plonkathon codes and more with over 300 participants. We are currently preparing advanced content for zk-learning.org.(like Nova、STARK...)

zkp-co-learning offers bounties to incentivize learners for their technical sharing, actively becoming community maintainers (Maintainer), and for organizing knowledge in the ZKP field. Together, we aim to improve ZKP Public Goods.

Problem Statement:

Currently, there are challenges related to high barriers to entry, difficulty in learning in the ZKP field, lack of learning communities, and the overwhelming and opaque nature of information. We intend to address these issues specifically through zkp-co-learning.

Team Background:

• Qi Zhou: Founder of ETHStorage
• 郭宇@Secbit: Founder of Secbit, https://github.com/sec-bit, https://secbit.io/
• Kurt Pan: Ph.D. in Cryptography from Fudan University, https://github.com/kurtpan666 / https://cryptography.land/
• Harry L: co-Founder of Rebase Community.
• Shirlene 孝羽: director of Creators Co-learning Community
• Demian: zkp-co-learning community maintainer, former JD.com algorithm engineer, https://github.com/Demian101
• Our Maintainers: dream@Scroll, Po@EthStorage, 0xhhh@EthStorage, Frank Jz Liu, miles, 白菜, KEEP, CJ, 笃行, 阳小雪, 啊咪咪小熊, 饭卡里还有不少钱呢...
• sponsoring agency: Antalpha Labs

Vision and Mission:

1. Continue to recruit Maintainers to collaboratively manage the community and answer questions.
2. Operate technical media and Twitter to expand influence.
3. Utilize zk technology to support a broader range of web3 applications.

Roadmap:

We plan to accomplish the following tasks within 6 months:

1. Launch the zkp-co-learning.xyz website and aim for: 1.1 Comprehensive ZKP learning path sorting and a clear, seamless learning guide. 1.2. zk Hackthon information gathering, allowing everyone to showcase and discuss ideas, and team up for Hackthon. 1.3. Distribute bounties, allowing anyone interested to participate and contribute knowledge and content.
2. Complete research on at least 5 open-source projects for EF PSE. (https://www.appliedzkp.org/projects)
3. Host a Hackthon or Hackerhouse to put theory into project practice.
4. Develop at least one zk application project with specific needs and use cases.
5. Organize and open-source the vast amount of zk materials that have accumulated and scattered within the current co-learning GROUP.
6. Attract at least 200 more people to participate in zkp technology learning and engage at least 20 developers in the development of zkp projects.

Project Description：

zkp-co-learning 是一个已经持续了 3 期的 ZKP 共学共创项目，从 2023 年 2 月至今，我们与 300+ 学员共同研究了 https://zkiap.com/ ，zk-learning.org ，plonkathon 代码等，目前正在筹备 zk-learning.org 的进阶内容

zkp-co-learning 针对学员的技术分享，积极成为社群维护者（Maintainer），ZKP 领域的知识整理，都会提供对应的 bounty 来激励他们，共同完善 ZKP Public Goods

Problem Statement

目前，针对 ZKP 领域学习门槛高、难度大，学习社群缺乏，信息庞杂不透明的情况，我们意图通过 zkp-co-learning 来针对性地解决这些问题

Team Background

as above.

愿景

1. 继续招募 Maintainer 来共同维护社区，解答大家的问题
2. 运营技术媒体与 Twitter，扩大影响力
3. 利用 zkp 技术支持更广泛场景的 web3 应用

Roadmap

我们计划使用 5 个月的时间完成以下事务：

1. 上线 zkp-co-learning.xyz 网站，完成：1. ZKP 完整学习路径梳理，清晰无痛的学习指南 2. zkp Hackthon 信息收集，让大家展示交流 ideas，组队 Hackthon 3. bounty 放送，让每个感兴趣的人都能参与其中，进行学识和内容的贡献
2. 完成至少 5 个 EF PSE 的开源项目 Research
3. 举办一次 Hackthon 或 Hackerhouse 来将理论付诸项目实践
4. 完成至少 1 个具有需求和使用场景的 zkp 应用项目的研发
5. 整理与开源目前共学 GROUP 里面沉淀散落的大量 zkp 资料
6. 再吸引至少 200 人参与到 zkp 技术的学习中，让至少 20 名开发者参与到 zkp 项目的研发中

What are we doing now?

进阶研究小组：

$\color{red}PS： 如果你不了解以下进阶概念，建议不要盲目进入，推荐先走主线剧情了解整个 zkp 全貌，后续再选择性参与$

$\color{red}我们建议最好是有一定时间精力投入，对选题有一定研究基础的，再加入研究小组，会获得更好的、非跳跃式的学习体验。$
