About the project

MLabs LTD will perform the maintenance and enhancement of Cardano.nix, a foundational toolset for building and deploying Cardano infrastructure with Nix. MLabs LTD will provide continuous support including maintenance releases, bug fixes, and compatibility updates for Plutarch throughout the 12-month funding period. The Grumplestiltskin project is an applied research effort focused on building experimental Plutarch tooling to support parameterized elliptic curve and Galois field operations, and exploring the feasibility of zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) verification on Cardano.
