It currently supports the full Merkle-Patricia Tree and has all Shanghai opcodes implemented. This implementation is able to provide transaction level proofs which are then recursively aggregated into a block proof. This means that proofs for a block can be efficiently distributed across a cluster of computers. As these proofs use Plonky2 they are CPU and Memory bound. The ability to scale horizontally across transactions increases the total performance of the system dramatically. +Included here is an implementation of a stateless, recursive ZK-EVM client implemented using Plonky2.
