Logan Allen: Nockchain's Global Competition for Useful ZK Proof of Work Miners Kicks Off

Join Tommy Shaughnessy as he hosts Logan Allen, founder of Zorp and Nockchain, to discuss Nockchain, a new proof-of-work L1 blockchain. Learn about its ZK Powell consensus mechanism, where miners generate ZK proofs.Zorp: https://zorp.ioNockchain: https://nockchain.org🎯 Key Highlights▸ Logan Allen's journey to creating Nockchain. ▸ Nockchain's "ZK Proof of Work" (ZK Powell) and its "Dumbnet" initial phase. ▸ How block rewards will subsidize proving capacity to build a proof market. ▸ "Intents" on Nockchain: enabling micro-apps via conditional coin locks. ▸ Nockchain's state growth strategy: prove once, verify by many. ▸ Potential for specialized ZK ASICs. ▸ Knock App framework for off-chain verifiable services. ▸ Roadmap: Nockchain namespace and cross-chain atomic swaps. ▸ Vision: A circular economy with useful and engaging applications. 💡 Subscribe for more crypto & gaming insights! 🔔🧠 Follow the Alpha▸ Zorp's Twitter: @ZorpZK▸ Nockchain's Twitter: @Nockchain 🔗 Connect with Delphi🌐 Portal: https://delphidigital.io/🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/delphi_digital💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/delphi-digital🎧 Listen onSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/62PR1RigLG2YN5Pelq6UY9?si=18ac7ccf36ab4753Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-delphi-podcast/id1438148082Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9Yy99ZlQIX9-PdG_xHj43QTimestamps00:00 - Intro: Logan Allen & Nockchain 01:00 - Interest in Knock instruction set & ZKVMs 02:00 - Building Nockchain: No pre-mine, PoW L1 03:00 - ZK Powell: Useful Proof of Work 10:00 - ZK Powell Deep Dive 12:00 - "Dumbnet" - Initial Nockchain Phase 15:00 - App Intents & Proving Capacity 19:00 - Miner Competition on Nockchain 22:00 - Knock App Development Framework 25:00 - State Growth & Verification 36:00 - Knock App Framework in Rust 38:00 - Nockchain Namespace Plans 46:00 - Challenge: Building Nockchain's Economy 52:00 - Getting Involved with Nockchain 53:00 - The "Aha!"
