Introducing ZKFS (Zero-Knowledge File System) - a data availability layer designed to reduce blockchain storage requirements while still allowing for complex business logic.

Unlike traditional blockchain designs, MINA's zero-knowledge approach enables developers to store 1large data structures indirectly (through state hash commitments) without adding unnecessary bulk to the network. More importantly, it shifts the responsibilities of executing smart-contracts to the client side, together with delegating the data storage requirements outside of the MINA chain itself.

You can try ZKFS out for yourself on our online playground or locally.
