Miden has introduced a new approach to account design. Each account has an independent state space, executes transaction logic locally, and then verifies state changes through zero-knowledge proofs. This is an interesting practice of the actor model on the blockchain.



The truly clever part lies in the way accounts interact—they do not communicate directly but exchange information through the "notes" mechanism. The on-chain verifier's work is also greatly simplified: there is no need to re-execute each operation step-by-step, only to verify these cryptographic proofs. As a result, the entire system ensures security while significantly reducing verification costs. This approach represents a notable breakthrough for scalability.

Based on historical data, such architectural innovations often correspond to breakthroughs in technology. But to be honest, reducing verification costs does not necessarily mean TPS will skyrocket; it still depends on actual deployment performance. However, the notes mechanism is indeed a good idea, somewhat reminiscent of sharding... If the overhead of ZK proofs can truly be reduced, it could rewrite the narrative within market cycles. Risk warning: don't be blinded by concepts; wait for the data before jumping in.

This architecture design is indeed comfortable, with local execution + zero-knowledge proof verification. How should I put it? It’s a bit like the vision I had during my all-in in 2017… Unfortunately, that technology wasn't available back then, and I lost everything. The notes mechanism is a brilliant move; accounts don't need to hassle each other, reducing verification costs… If it can truly be implemented, the scalability ceiling will be raised again. However, we've seen too many projects, and the key is whether the mainnet can run smoothly—otherwise, it’s just another empty promise.

ngl the notes mechanism is basically async messaging for chains that actually learned from actor models... no more execution replay hell, just verify the cryptographic handshake and move on. that's the arbitrage spread between traditional rollups and what miden's cooking up right now.

The notes mechanism to bypass direct communication is really clever. It feels like locking each account in its own little room and passing notes back and forth—both secure and efficient.

Sounds good, with zero-knowledge proofs and actor models... but I bet five bucks that when it actually launches, there will be some unexpected issues. Will the notes mechanism work? I have a bad feeling about this... The last project was just as confident, and it's still sitting on my zeroing-out list. If the scalability can be broken through, then be even more careful. The more hyped the innovation, the higher the chance I’ll stumble into pitfalls. This is the only metric I’ve summarized over the years with a 99% accuracy rate. Looking forward to your success, Miden. Hope I won't fail to catch the bottom for the Nth time.

ngl the notes mechanism is clever but let me see the audit findings before popping champagne... asynchronous messaging between accounts sounds elegant until someone figures out the replay vector

This notes mechanism is indeed excellent, much more elegant than direct communication.
