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.

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

4/ Our implementation stack:

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

3/ The scope of complexity:

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