The team released Intmax2, which is a powerful algorithm to make a completely stateless zkRollup. The Rollup space enters the new phase.
The deep dive into statelessness ~Intmax2 algorithm was published~
We're thrilled to announce that we've raised $5M in seed funding to fuel our mission of revolutionizing Ethereum🛸
INTMAX's stateless zkRollup is able to combine extremely high scalability with customizable privacy, which other zkRollups cannot offer🧬
We announce Plasma Next, the first completion of Plasma and the de facto resolution of the Impossibility of Stateless Blockchains. We have been able to eliminate the online requirement from Plasma. This can be verified in both the paper and the code. 1/4
INTMAX Wallet is a game-changing MPC wallet that lets you:
✅Use your biometrics for an awesome user experience
✅Skip the hassle of installing any apps or extensions
✅Forget about keeping seed phrases
✅Support a bunch of Layer2s
Honored to be mentioned! Intmax's unique solution has been validated by ideas from top-level blockchain researchers, and it is becoming increasingly clear that it is a crucial means to achieve ultimate scalability, unstoppable privacy simultaneously.
We are excited to announce the testnet V1 for developers is going on live!! Totally new things are happening!

INTMAX🧬 is a wallet that provides its user with;
- easy access wallet
- cutting edge cyber security
- super user-friendly interface
You don't need lengthy seed phrases, apps and browser extensions, hence a walletless wallet.

to make Ethereum stateless 💻
With 7,668 contributions totaling $21,537.49, INTMAX has been ranked No.1🥇 in the Ethereum Infrastructure category in terms of funding received!
We are planning to adopt 2FA using two ZKP schemes, such as Plonky2 and Plonky3, to ensure that funds remain safe even if one ZKP scheme is compromised. 2 circuits with 2 types of ZKP for one purpose.

Against stateless scaling: a16z, Paradigm, & etc..
Fullbet on stateless scaling: Intmax, .. nobody else!?
Actually, a witness management is rather easy since one can accumulate that in constant-size recursive zkp succinctly. 1/4
statelessness that pushes witness management to users is intractable - doesn't mean that having stateless nodes isn't useful.
eg have the builder generate the witness.
more node types should be fine as the roles of an actor in the ethereum protocol expand? same if eg…
VB thinks Intmax is a crazy and really cool protocol. This is because Intmax can achieve extreme scalability along with privacy simultaneously. This has surprised many top researchers, including him.
(starts from 1:13)
The concept of Stateless zkRollup (Intmax2) can be relatively difficult, leading people to confuse it with solutions like Validium. However, in reality, it uses only 4-6 bytes of calldata per one tx and can even include a significant number of transfers within that one tx. 1/2
It is valuable for many people to know about the post-danksharding world, often called Ethereum 2.0.
Today I want to talk about how danksharding/proto-danksharding’s Data Availability Sampling (DAS) works.
1/x
In INTMAX Wallet, there is a feature called Link Transfer. With this feature, the sender can complete a money transfer simply by sending a link to the recipient, without needing to know the recipient's address.
Yes! And there are also unpopular and interesting facts and examples about statelessness like these
1) a witness update isn't a problem in some cases like payments when it can be one way.
2) linear state growth does not happen when users postpone closing channels forever. 1/7
statelessness = execution hints baked into the header allowing builders to assist other nodes:
1. reduce read load: read values are passed over the wire -> don't need to go to disk,
2. increase cpu utilization: know where you access -> perfect parallelism
way undersold frame imo
We spent a year and a half developing the most powerful algorithm under Proto-Danksharding conditions.
This post unpacks the Intmax components, why Intmax is unique, and what our ultimate goal is.
Check out the details here👇
The 'Revocable Blockchain' paper is widely misunderstood.
If we assume that certain types of witness updates are safe, or if we acknowledge the obvious fact that linear state growth with a very small slope is not a problem, there are no harmful limitations to stateless systems.

Actually, the nodes in a truly stateless zkRollup don't need to synchronize a blockchain. Surprised?

We discussed the differences with other Rollups for comparison, but many Rollups that scale smart contracts are not our competitors. INTMAX will help scale up the remittance of other Rollups, including Scroll. INTMAX will compete with many low-security blockchains.

Statelessness is only one way to have scalability and privacy at the same time in a decentralized manner at least now.
As the paper from a16z implied, the state growth is linear in any system, but we can make an extremely minimized state growth.

1. Efficiency of DA/zkp calculation
2. Need for Customized Privacy
3. Interoperability and UX
4. Decentralization of Sequencers / Unstoppability
We drastically solve these problems left in Ethereum L2 space.
For our upcoming roadmap, features such as a system where you can transfer funds just by sharing a link will be introduced in Q4. Ultimately, the INTMAX zkRollup, which achieves both near-zero gas and privacy, will be integrated into the wallet.

"statezeroness" is impossible, whereas statelessness is certainly possible.
Both stateful and stateless blockchains experience linear growth in database size (or state size), but this is generally not a problem since we can make the growth rate really small.
We live in a very dangerous era. Evolved attacks through machine learning can easily find vulnerabilities from individuals' unencrypted activities. Prohibiting citizens' privacy is what undemocratic nations most wish for us.
2022, top researchers from a16z proved that a stateless blockchain was impossible, but this Plasma becomes the de facto solution to this problem. Instead of resolving the problem directly, we have solved it by making it possible to delay the problem as much as desired. 3/4
