For a more decentralized approach, TrueBit offers a solution for off-chain computation. It involves solvers and verifiers who perform computations and verify them. In case of a challenge, an iterative verification process takes place on-chain. Ethereum miners act as judges to make a final ruling. TrueBit creates a computation market where decentralized applications can pay for verifiable computation outside of the network. This allows trustless smart contracts to perform various computational tasks securely.

That solution is undoubtedly Truebit. https://truebit.io/

Yes, it is on truebit.io site: "Truebit combines with bulletproofs to achieve compact, zero-knowledge proofs without trusted setup. "

There's already a whitepaper from 2018 covering the bridge between ethereum and Doge from the creator of Truebit protocol

Perhaps the ELI5 page from Truebit can help

This is not true for all crypto coins. A small proportion of mining hash functions are deliberately designed to thwart ASICs, e.g. https://github.com/tevador/RandomX. It's a cat-and-mouse game, though: CryptoNight was designed to fulfill the same role, but ultimately failed: https://monerodocs.org/proof-of-work/cryptonight/.

Can we reference this specs doc from the Randomx repo https://github.com/tevador/RandomX/blob/master/doc/specs.md . I am going to be using the variables K and H as described in the doc.

Monero uses randomx, an ASIC-resistant and CPU-friendly POW algorithm created by Monero community members, designed to make the use of mining-specific hardware unfeasible. Monero previously used CryptoNight and variations of this algorithm. More info in the GitHub repo.

Here's the randomx github. Or at least I think its the same randomx that xmr uses? https://github.com/tevador/RandomX. There's some stuff in there under the documentation section.

Monero does not have ASICs since RandomX was implemented in 2019. CPU is the best way to mine it. See https://github.com/tevador/RandomX.
