Polygon reveals acquisition of zk proofs project Mir in $500 million deal

Polygon has revealed an acquisition deal that will see the Ethereum Layer-2 platform buy Predictive Labs and its Mir blockchain in a $400 million deal.
Developers Predictive Labs specialize in zero-knowledge roll-up technology, which is gaining traction as a viable privacy and scaling solution.

There are variations to this, such as zk-SNARKs, in which the prover and ver
