BLS12-381 Syscall

A Solana runtime syscall that exposes elliptic curve operations on the BLS12-381 pairing-friendly curve, including point addition, scalar multiplication, multi-scalar multiplication, and pairing checks. BLS12-381 is widely used in modern ZK proof systems, Ethereum 2.0 signatures, and other cryptographic protocols. This syscall enables on-chain verification of BLS signatures and ZK proofs that use the BLS12-381 curve without the prohibitive compute cost of a pure BPF implementation.

ZKP Syscall (alt_bn128)

The alt_bn128 syscalls are native BPF VM system calls added to the Solana runtime (via SIMD-0041 and related proposals) that expose elliptic curve operations on the BN254 curve (also known as alt_bn128) — specifically point addition, scalar multiplication, and pairing checks — enabling on-chain programs to verify Groth16 zk-SNARK proofs within practical compute unit budgets. Without these syscalls, implementing the pairing-based verification of a Groth16 proof purely in BPF bytecode would require hundreds of millions of compute units, far exceeding the 1.4M per-transaction limit; with the syscalls, a full Groth16 verification costs on the order of 200,000–400,000 compute units. Light Protocol's on-chain verifier and Solana's Token-2022 Confidential Transfers both depend on the alt_bn128 syscalls, making them a critical piece of Solana's ZK infrastructure.

Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP)

A zero-knowledge proof is a cryptographic protocol by which a prover convinces a verifier that a statement is true — for example, that a state transition is valid — without revealing any information beyond the truth of the statement itself, satisfying the properties of completeness, soundness, and zero-knowledge. In Solana's ecosystem, ZKPs are used by ZK Compression (via Groth16 SNARKs) to prove correct state transitions for compressed accounts without storing full account state on-chain, and by the Token-2022 Confidential Transfers extension (via ElGamal encryption and range proofs) to prove token balances are non-negative without revealing the actual amounts. Solana's BPF VM exposes the alt_bn128 elliptic curve syscall to make on-chain Groth16 proof verification computationally feasible within the 1.4M compute unit budget.

Syscall (System Call)

The interface through which SBF programs request services from the Solana runtime, analogous to OS system calls. Syscalls provide access to operations that cannot be implemented in userspace BPF code: cryptographic functions (SHA-256, Keccak, Poseidon, secp256k1 recovery), logging (sol_log), account data access, CPI (invoke/invoke_signed), program return data, and sysvar reads. Each syscall has a defined compute unit cost.

Bulletproofs

A zero-knowledge proof system that produces short, non-interactive proofs without a trusted setup. Bulletproofs are particularly efficient for range proofs — proving a committed value lies within a range without revealing it. Used in confidential transaction systems to prove token amounts are non-negative without disclosing exact values.

A native Solana runtime syscall providing elliptic curve operations on the alt_bn128 (BN254) curve — specifically point addition, scalar multiplication, and pairing checks.

Compressão ZK

State Compression

State Compression is Solana's technique for storing the cryptographic fingerprint (root hash) of a Merkle tree on-chain while keeping the actual leaf data off-chain in the Solana ledger's account data logs, reducing the cost of storing large datasets by orders of magnitude. A compressed NFT collection of 1 million items costs roughly 50 SOL to mint versus ~12,000 SOL with standard SPL accounts, because only a single Concurrent Merkle Tree account occupies on-chain storage. Any data change requires updating the root hash and supplying a Merkle proof to the on-chain program, which verifies inclusion without reading the full dataset.

ZK Compression

ZK Compression, pioneered by Light Protocol, extends Solana's state compression model beyond NFTs to general-purpose compressed accounts by using zero-knowledge proofs (specifically Groth16 SNARKs verified via the alt_bn128 syscall) to prove the validity of state transitions without storing full account state on-chain. Compressed accounts live in on-chain Merkle trees but their data is reconstructed from the Solana ledger by indexers like Photon, enabling developers to build applications that use thousands of accounts at a fraction of the normal rent cost — often 1,000x to 5,000x cheaper than regular accounts. The protocol introduces compressed tokens, compressed PDAs, and a system of nullifiers to prevent double-spends while maintaining Solana's throughput.

Compressed Account

A compressed account is a Solana account whose state is stored as a leaf in an on-chain Concurrent Merkle Tree rather than as a dedicated on-chain account, making it 100–1,000x cheaper to create and maintain because no rent-exempt lamport balance is required per account. Compressed accounts are identified by a hash of their data and position in the tree; to interact with one, a client must supply a Merkle proof (or rely on the canopy) showing the leaf is part of the current tree root, which the on-chain program verifies before processing the state change. Light Protocol's compressed account model supports arbitrary data, discriminators, and owner programs, making it a general-purpose replacement for expensive on-chain accounts in high-volume use cases.

Concurrent Merkle Tree

A Concurrent Merkle Tree (CMT) is a specialized on-chain Solana data structure that allows multiple state updates to the same Merkle tree within a single block without conflicting, by recording a changelog buffer of recent root transitions that validators use to reconcile parallel proof submissions. A CMT is parameterized by its maximum depth (max_depth, determining tree capacity of 2^max_depth leaves), max_buffer_size (number of concurrent changes the changelog can track, directly controlling how many operations per slot the tree can safely absorb), and an optional canopy_depth. The SPL Account Compression program manages CMTs, and they are the foundational storage primitive for both Metaplex compressed NFTs and Light Protocol compressed accounts.
