Is SuperNova's Folding Scheme the Endgame for ZK?

SuperNova is a new recursive proof system for incrementally producing succinct proofs of the correct execution of programs on a stateful machine with a particular instruction set.

These seem to be fantastic features. This article will mainly interpret how these features are implemented.
