📎Changelog

October 3, 2024

ZK-Certificates -> 0.11.0

  • The guardian registry smart contract now links to a metadata URL with information and it allows guardians to use multiple accounts for issuing zkCerts (#61)

  • New sybil-resistant airdrop smart contract based on zkKYC registrations with humanID (#64)

  • New sybil-resistant faucet smart contract based on zkKYC (#66)

  • Added a salt to the humanID for more privacy and tracking resistance (#67)

  • Fixed non-deterministic poseidon hash of “” (#69)

  • New script for debugging encrypted zkCerts (#70)

  • New Zk circuit for country sanction list (#72)

  • New Compliant ERC20 demo and smart contracts (#72)

  • Added a multicall smart contract (#74)

  • New smart contracts and ZK circuits for Twitter related proofs and how they are stored and managed in VerificationSBTs (#74)

  • New smart contracts for basic zkKYC proofs in new Galactica passport front-end (#75)

  • ZkCert hashes of key-value records are now alphabetically ordered. This ensures consistency, with future zkCerts and new content types. This changes the hashes of existing zkCerts and therefore requires updating the zkCert generation and ZK prover accordingly. To separate zkCerts with the hashing approach, we also created new zkCert registry instances on-chain. (#76)

  • Script for whitelisting guardians based on compressed EdDSA public keys (#78)

Galactica ZK Vault Snap -> 0.8.1

  • New method to benchmark ZK proof generation (#63)

  • Allow snap to handle larger, more complex ZK provers by moving them out of the request payload (#65)

  • Fixed compatibility issue with unknown zkCert types (#73)

Snap-API -> 0.3.0

  • Adjusted to new methods and parameter types (#63, #65)

Galactica-Types -> 0.4.0

  • New zkCert standards for Twitter, Rey and DEX certificates (#71, #73)

  • Removed root field from merkle proof type to remove a potential source of inconsistency (#79)

Example and Test Front-Ends -> 0.4.0

  • Integrated snap benchmark button (#63)

  • Integrated CompliantERC20 demo (#72)
