Gate access to Telegram group chats using ZK proofs with Risc Zero and zkVerify

The problem zgate solves

Gated Telegram chats have become popular recently, but current approaches to gating chats are limited to a trusted party checking onchain state. Using ZK we can create more flexible conditions to gain entry to a chat, and we remove the need for a trusted party. Additionally, with zkVerify the proofs used to gate one chat could be reused for another chat.

Challenges I ran into

Connecting all the pieces was fairly difficult, although I have a working end to end flow, the ZK proofs are simplified from what I was hoping for.
