We recently teamed up with Lighter to dive deep into their custom ZK circuits used for a verifiable orderbook matching on a Layer 2 exchange. Our findings show solid and well-structured code, thanks to their cooperative engineering team. The post gives a fascinating look into how Lighter’s ZK rollup ensures valid state transitions on Layer 1 through zero-knowledge proofs and the innovative structure of their order book matching process. It explains the roles of the main operation and exit hatch circuits, while also touching on how users can exit in emergencies. It's a great read if you're curious about how these systems maintain security and efficiency in decentralized finance.
