 > Unfortunately, we only have about 253 bytes max to use if we want to
 send the proof in the intro circuit itself... MTP proofs are ~187KB with
 their recommended L=70 parameter (see Section 4.6). This is far too large
 to use without a secondary validator server that hands out tokens in
 exchange for proofs, which is a lot more complexity :/

 at the end)

 FWIW, I made child ticket #33712 for more exploration of this particular
 avenue. Let's use this ticket for more brainstorming kind of things, and
 use #33712 to get deeper into pow/anon credentials.
