## Source excerpt (up to 25 words)

> Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming

## Review question

Check the benchmark version, sampling budget, data contamination controls, human interventions and proof-review method. A final answer or benchmark score is not evidence that every reasoning step is valid.

No independent proof check or claim of peer review.
