Placeholder

This paper introduces Placeholder, a zero-knowledge succinct non-interactive argument of knowledge (zk-SNARK) based on PlonK-style arithmetization. The system is designed to offer flexibility by allowing internal components like commitment schemes and arithmetization types to be replaceable and configurable. Placeholder’s ability to adapt to specific parameters, such as circuit size and proof efficiency, makes it suitable for various applications, including decentralized systems and secure multi-party computations. This flexibility is crucial for achieving efficient results in a wide range of use cases, particularly where trade-offs between trust assumptions and performance are needed.
