Area and Time, a flagship platform for blockchain, AI, information and zero-knowledge (ZK), introduced at the moment that its ZK prover for SQL queries “Proof of SQL” has reached sub-second proving speeds for analytic queries in opposition to a million rows of knowledge.
Powered by NVIDIA, Area and Time’s prover achieves sub-second pace
Based on the official assertion by its crew, Area and Time, the primary blockchain addressing ZK encryption for exterior information, managed to hit sub-second proving pace for its SQL prover. The milestone is completed because of the mixing of NVIDIA computation energy.

As of Could 2025, the prover is the quickest in the marketplace for proving SQL queries with zero-knowledge (ZK) devices.
Proof of SQL is a novel ZK circuit designed to confirm the accuracy and integrity of SQL database queries. The prover may be built-in into any SQL database, centralized or decentralized, and is already securing a number of the most distinguished Web3 apps, AI protocols, monetary establishments and enterprises.
Jay White, PhD, Cofounder and Head of Analysis at MakeInfinite Labs, and the inventor of the Proof of SQL protocol, highlights the significance of the discharge for your entire ecosystem of knowledge logistics options in Web3:
Area and Time is on the forefront of constructing quick, sensible ZK for real-world workloads and purposes. Our collaboration with NVIDIA and use of their know-how is crucial in realizing this imaginative and prescient. We’re thrilled by the progress of Proof of SQL and look ahead to persevering with to construct with the NVIDIA crew to usher within the subsequent era of AI and blockchain purposes, powered by ZK.
Proof of SQL makes use of NVIDIA’s accelerated computing and its personal customized GPU acceleration framework to course of massive information volumes sooner than another answer in the marketplace.
Proof-of-SQL instrument obtainable for builders on GitHub
Proof of SQL is accessible on GitHub for builders and enterprises that need to combine ZK into their database and develop next-generation purposes with verifiable information.
Within the newest benchmarks printed on GitHub, the protocol can execute analytic queries over one million-row tables in lower than a second on NVIDIA GPUs.
As coated by U.As we speak beforehand, Area and Time lastly launched its mainnet on Could 8, 2025. The staking of SXT ERC-20 token was additionally activated.
Beforehand, the founding entity of the protocol secured $50 million in funding from Microsoft’s VC arm.
