Privacy-Preserving-Exchange-Mechanism

This project implements three Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) related to the paper titled "Privacy-Preserving Exchange Mechanism and its Application to Energy Market". These ZKPs have been implemented using Gnark, a high-level zk-SNARK library developed by ConsenSys. Gnark is designed for easy circuit design and efficient SNARK proof generation, with support for both Groth16 and PlonK proving systems.

Installing Gnark

To install Gnark, you need to have Go installed on your machine. Follow the steps below to get started:

1. Install Go from https://golang.org/dl/
2. Once Go is installed, install Gnark by running the following command:

go get github.com/consensys/gnark

This will download and install the Gnark library along with its dependencies.

Usage

To compile and prove a ZKP, you need to place yourself in the desired proof folder (ProofDraw, ProofF, ProofReg or ProofTx) then run the command :

go run main.go

If you want to run a benchmark, go to the benchmarking folder associated with the proof and run the python script with the command :

python3 main.py
