If you’re used to building on Ethereum, Mina is different. In a world where blockchain problems center around block space and the reliance on replaying transactions, Mina introduces a unique combination of off-chain computation, optional privacy, and the ability to verify the entire chain on any device, all in a single proof.

ABOUT MINA:
Mina is a next-gen zero knowledge (ZK) blockchain. Rather than apply brute computing force, Mina uses advanced cryptography and recursive zk-SNARKs to design an entire blockchain of about 22kb, the size of a couple of tweets. It is the first layer-1 to enable efficient implementation and easy programmability of zero knowledge smart contracts (zkApps). With its unique privacy features and ability to connect to any website, Mina is building a private gateway between the real world and crypto—and the secure, democratic future we all deserve.
