Modern users demands for digital information processing and storage systems, which provide reliable, safe and consistent reproduction of recorded facts and issues. We are well acquainted with distributed ledger technology (DLT) that provides the information storage on independent and unaccountable nodes which interact in complete distrust with each other. It yet provides reliable, secure and historically consistent storage. Due to the increase of blockchain network users it is necessary to provide a resource availability service for billions of users in different parts of the world. Moreover, everyone who interacts with the blockchain network in the mode of complete distrust forces to repeatedly check long chain of blocks containing cryptographic integrity and involvement marks of the party that generates them. Thus, the main recent problem of DLTs is scalability. In this paper, we present the main idea of our solution using new cryptographic technology, known as zero-knowledge proof system. We substantiate the general scheme of fast, reliable and secure DLT verification systems and provide time and measurement result of the classic DLT verification and the new one to demonstrate the perspective of the chosen direction.

Abstract
Modern users demands for digital information processing and storage systems, which provide reliable, safe and consistent reproduction of recorded facts and issues. We are well acquainted with distributed ledger technology (DLT) that provides the information storage on independent and unaccountable nodes which interact in complete distrust with each other. It yet provides reliable, secure and historically consistent storage. Due to the increase of blockchain network users it is necessary to provide a resource availability service for billions of users in different parts of the world. Moreover, everyone who interacts with the blockchain network in the mode of complete distrust forces to repeatedly check long chain of blocks containing cryptographic integrity and involvement marks of the party that generates them. Thus, the main recent problem of DLTs is scalability. In this paper, we present the main idea of our solution using new cryptographic technology, known as zero-knowledge proof system. We substantiate the general scheme of fast, reliable and secure DLT verification systems and provide time and measurement result of the classic DLT verification and the new one to demonstrate the perspective of the chosen direction.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
