Crypto smart-contract executor.

Zenroom is a tiny secure execution environment that integrates in any platform and application, even on a chip or a web page. It can authenticate, authorize access and execute human-readable smart contracts for blockchains, databases and much more. It helps to develop cryptography keeping it simple, understandable and maintainable.

Crypto smart-contract executor.

Works with most curves

Zenroom supports signature and pairing with most elliptic curves, including SECP256K1 (bitcoin), BLS381 (ethereum 2.0), BLS383, ED25519, see the full list here.

Specs

Perform Elliptic Curve Pairing as well public/private a-symmetric key cryptography for ECDH, ECDSA, AES-GCM, BLS and Schnor signatures.

Attribute based credentials (ABC) and non-interactive zero knowledge proof (zk-SNARKS) based on Coconut, multi-party computation based on Reflow, W3C VC, secret sharing (Lagrange).

Executes smart contracts in Lua or in Zencode: a non Turing-complete, English-like DSL, inspired by LangSec and BDD.

Deterministic execution end-to-end: in-browser, in-memory or distributed to a blockchain. Grants integrity across different platforms.

Tiny library or executable (1MB), low memory usage (600KB~2MB). No external dependencies. Has bindings for most languages.

Written in C (ANSI C99), Zenroom runs on Linux, Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, WebAssembly, integrated Cortex chips and supports Seccomp, see downloads.

Advanced Features

ABC, zk-SNARKS, Multisig

Zenroom implements the Coconut authentication flow, allowing developers to implement complex ABC and zk-SNARKS flows in minutes. Implements BLS multisignatures, free of rogue attacks as in Reflow.
