Merkle Trees are a fundamental data structure in cryptography, especially when it comes to ensuring the integrity of data. They play a critical role in how we can verify large datasets efficiently, without needing to trust the source completely. This ability to verify the correctness of data in a decentralized or distributed environment makes Merkle Trees an essential tool in various applications, such as blockchain, peer-to-peer networks, and file-sharing systems.

Sudoku might seem like a simple puzzle, but it offers a great example to grasp the fundamental concepts behind Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs). In this blog post, we’ll explore how to prove that a Sudoku solution is correct without revealing the solution itself, and we'll use Noir to implement this idea.

Have you ever heard someone say, “Why do I need privacy if I have nothing to hide?” Or maybe you’ve even thought it yourself. This sentence reflects an idea we have about privacy: that it’s about hiding something bad, and if we have nothing to hide, we shouldn’t worry about privacy.
