Zorp: Nockchain's ZK Proof-of-Useful-Work Consensus - Logan Allen

09 Aug 2025

Description

Inspired by Urbit’s minimal assembly language, Nockchain fuses Urbit’s vision of sovereign computing with a novel proof-of-useful-work consensus mechanism, creating a blockchain where every computation fuels progress and scaling. The crypto-economics behind Nockchain’s zkVM incentivise competition between zero knowledge provers, ultimately bootstrapping ZKPs as a new computational commodity.Topics covered in this episode:Logan’s backgroundUrbit’s valuesNock, Urbit's minimal assembly language Use cases for zk proofsNockchain’s zkVM efficiencyUseful proof-of-workLaunching NockchainFuture roadmap for NockchainBuilding apps on NockchainStore of value vs. revenue generationThe impact of quantum computingEpisode links:Logan Allen on XZorp on XNockchain on XUrbit on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.
