In a recent announcement, on July 7, 2025, ZKM unveiled the new generation zkVM (Zero-Knowledge Proof Virtual Machine) named Ziren (formerly zkMIPS). Utilizing GPU acceleration, distributed proof architecture, and a deeply optimized constraint system, Ziren opens up new possibilities for the deployability and scalability of Zero-Knowledge (ZK) systems in real-world applications. Ziren achieves a 30x speedup in core proofs, a 15x speedup in aggregated proofs, and reduces state preparation time from 5 minutes to 30 seconds, already being implemented in the GOAT Network Bitcoin-native zkRollup project. The name Ziren is inspired by the mythological 'Siren,' symbolizing the transition from illusion to reality - where technology is not just enticing, but a promise of practical usability. Ziren aims to be the truly efficient, trustworthy, and deployable zk infrastructure in the hands of mainstream developers, supporting Rust/C/C++ program proof generation, compatible with full Ethereum Rust client verification, and assisting developers in easily building trusted Zero-Knowledge systems.
