RISC Zero

We cut ZK-Proof processing time from 16 hours to 3 minutes in our latest implementation for the music industry.

Here's how we did it leveraging /risc-zero zkVM ↓

Next-generation royalty infrastructure for the music industry.

2/ The challenge: bringing the DDEX standard (music industry's metadata exchange system) onto blockchain while maintaining decentralization and scalability.

3/ The scope of complexity:

• 50,000+ lines of validation rules
• Complex XML schemas
• Thousands of daily transactions
• Strict industry compliance requirements

4/ Our implementation stack:

↳ Rust
↳ /risc-zero
↳ @graphprotocol 
↳ @ethereum 
↳ IPFS

7/ A unified, tamper-proof system for sharing and validating music metadata across the entire industry.

6/ This allows music industry stakeholders to validate and share critical metadata directly in minutes rather than waiting for admin approval or data transfer for hours or days.

Now, any stakeholder can independently verify the entire process with complete transparency. Maintaining full decentralization, data integrity, industry compliance, scalability, and user accessibility.

5/ Core innovation: Combining /risc-zero (Zero-Knowledge Virtual Machine) with Ethereum's EIP-4844 BLOBs for XML validation while maintaining verifiability.

→ First phase: Media and metadata extraction and decentralization 
→ Second phase: BLOB storage implementation 
→ Third phase: Permanent IPFS archive
