职位：零知识证明基础设施平台Ligero从Galaxy Ventures和1KX筹集了400万美元的种子，以启动ZKVM Ligetron

Ligero是一个以零知识证明为重点的基础设施平台，已通过Galaxy Ventures和1KX筹集了400万美元的种子圆形共同领导。

Ligero, a startup focused on zero-knowledge proofs infrastructure, has raised $4 million in a seed round co-led by Galaxy Ventures and 1kx.

Ligero是一家专注于零知识证明基础设施的初创公司，已在Galaxy Ventures和1KX的一个种子圆形共同领导的种子圆形筹集资金中筹集了400万美元。

The round was structured as a simple agreement for future equity (SAFE) with token warrants, valuing Ligero at $20 million.

这一轮的结构是对未来股权（安全）的简单协议，并用令牌认股权证，以2000万美元的价格评估Ligero。

Several other notable investors also participated in the fundraising, including Franklin Templeton, Nascent, Anagram, Robot Ventures, and Digital Currency Group.

其他几个著名的投资者还参加了筹款活动，包括富兰克林·邓普顿（Franklin Templeton），新生，阿阴系格拉姆（Anagram），机器人风险投资集团（Anagram）和数字货币集团。

As part of the deal, Wei Dai, a research partner at 1kx, joins Ligero’s board of directors. The company plans to use the fresh capital to expand its engineering and business development teams.

作为交易的一部分，1KX的研究合作伙伴Wei Dai加入了Ligero的董事会。该公司计划利用新资本来扩展其工程和业务发展团队。

Ligero also announced the launch of Ligetron, a zkVM platform capable of handling 1,000 transactions per second (TPS) on a single NVIDIA L40S GPU with less than 2 GB CPU RAM.

Ligero还宣布了Ligetron的推出，Ligetron是一个ZKVM平台，能够在单个NVIDIA L40S GPU上处理1,000件交易（TPS），少于2 GB CPU RAM。

A browser-based implementation of Ligetron can achieve 100 TPS, opening the door for mobile-based zk proof-powered applications.

基于浏览器的Ligetron实现可以实现100 TP，为基于移动的ZK证明应用程序打开了大门。

“Next-gen DeFi, gaming, ML applications, and real-world asset tokenization will crucially depend on scalable privacy. Unfortunately, existing ZK-SNARK L2s are simply too cumbersome for practical use and lack composability,” said Ligero co-founder Muthu Venkitasubramaniam.

“下一代DEFI，游戏，ML应用程序和现实资产令牌化将至关重要地取决于可扩展的隐私。不幸的是，现有的ZK-SNARK L2太麻烦了，对于实际使用，缺乏合成性。” Ligero联合创始人Muthu Venkitasubramaniam说。

Existing ZK-SNARKS powering L2 technology are not suited for true privacy applications given that they can’t run client-side and require significant hardware on the server side.

鉴于它们无法运行客户端并且需要在服务器端需要重要的硬件，因此现有的ZK-SNARKS为L2技术提供动力L2技术不适合真正的隐私应用程序。

By contrast, Ligetron is the first and only memory-efficient ZKVM that can be deployed on any device — from a Raspberry Pi to an NVIDIA H100 — delivering consistent and scalable performance.

相比之下，Ligetron是可以在任何设备上部署的第一个也是唯一可以在任何设备上部署的内存效率的ZKVM（从Raspberry Pi到NVIDIA H100）提供一致且可扩展的性能。

“We are thrilled to support Ligero in their journey to revolutionize Web3 with blazing-fast, lightweight, and privacy-preserving proofs. Ligetron's remarkable performance, capable of handling 1,000 TPS on a single L40S GPU with minimal CPU RAM, is a testament to the team's exceptional technical capabilities,” said Ananya Chaitanya, partner at Galaxy Ventures.

“我们很高兴能在利格罗（Ligero）的旅程中以巨大的速度，轻巧和隐私的证明来革新Web3的旅程。 Ligetron的出色表现，能够在单个L40S GPU上以最少的CPU RAM处理1,000 TP，这证明了该团队的出色技术能力。” Galaxy Ventures的合伙人Ananya Chaitanya说。

“We are excited to continue our partnership with the Ligero team as they launch Ligetron, the world’s fastest ZKVM. Muhtu, Matt, and the team have built an incredible technology that will unlock new possibilities for Web3 applications,” added 1kx’s research partner Wei Dai.

“我们很高兴能在世界上最快的ZKVM发射Ligetron时继续与Ligero团队的合作伙伴关系。 Muhtu，Matt和该团队已经建立了一项令人难以置信的技术，可以为Web3应用程序解锁新的可能性。” 1KX的研究合作伙伴WEI DAI补充说。

“We are impressed by Ligero's technology and the potential it holds to transform the Web3 landscape. We believe that zero-knowledge proofs will play a crucial role in the future of Web3, and we are proud to support Ligero in their mission.”

“ Ligero的技术及其改变Web3景观的潜力给我们留下了深刻的印象。我们认为，零知识证明将在Web3的未来中发挥至关重要的作用，我们为支持Ligero的使命而感到自豪。”
