A reminder that the next round of the MoonMath Manual Study Group, hosted by ZK Hack, is tomorrow, Thursday 2 May at 11:00 AM UTC! The group covers various chapters of the manual, including numerous practice exercises. Most explanations struggle to clarify how and why they work, so zk-SNARKs remain somewhat “magical” and elusive, deterring developers from exploring or utilizing them in projects. We want to change that with our MoonMath Manual to zk-SNARKs, designed for an audience with only minimal experience in cryptography and programming. Explore additional details about the topics covered in previous chapters and learn how to join the study group by clicking here: https://lnkd.in/eh4CmBYT #zksnarks #studygroup #cryptography
