ChainCatcher news, Andreessen Horowitz's cryptocurrency division a16z crypto has launched two new SNARK-based technologies, Lasso and Jolt, providing a more efficient approach to SNARK design that could make it faster and easier for developers to understand, potentially facilitating the development of ZK-rollups in Layer 2.

The article states that Lasso employs a "lookup parameter" mechanism, which is beneficial for faster zero-knowledge proofs. Jolt is a framework specifically designed for Roll-ups compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine. It is described as a novel method that utilizes Lasso to build a SNARK VM (a virtual machine executing through SNARK proofs).
