ZKM joins the ZkBoost Consortium Governing Council
2025 will be the year of ZK!

ZkBoost is a generic abstraction for outsourced proving. In practice, it is a kind of proxy node that proving services and networks can integrate with, providing a single, standardized API for projects in need of proof generation to access all proving options.
The purpose of the ZkBoost Consortium Governing Council is to collaboratively develop standards for proof supply chain abstraction. We invite all ZK-rollups and proving services to unite in architecting and funding ZkBoost, a generic abstraction for outsourced proving.
Currently, 42 companies have now opted to join the Governing Council, which consists of a diversified group of organizations and enterprises including Layer 1s, other major Layer 2 partners, and a multitude of prover networks. With a range of industry roles, all companies who have vowed to participate are collectively committed to governing and extending ZkBoost’s capabilities, with the core mission of bringing decentralization to the proof supply chain.
We’re excited to announce that ZKM, the first zkVM for MIPS, has joined the ZkBoost Consortium. The Council Seat will be held by Dylan Kawalec, ZKM’s DevRel Lead, who commented:
”For ZKM, joining ZkBoost is about working together with other industry leaders to contribute to a common mission - taking ZK from niche to mainstream. We see this collaboration as a way to simplify this often complex, fragmented space, transforming it into a standardized, widely accessible toolset that developers can easily adopt. By working together, we can make ZK an essential building block for blockchain applications.”
Gevulot is funding early work on ZkBoost, but our goal is for this to be a public good, open-source software. To formalize how this implementation should be governed to ensure neutrality, apply to join the Governing Council of the ZkBoost Consortium.
We’ll be announcing the rest of the Governing Council members weekly over the coming quarter, so stay tuned to learn more about the folks participating in this innovative initiative.
