Typed presentations on the topic:

Recently I gave a presentation with a very high level and general overview of ways to (ab)use SNARKs for bitcoin scalability reasons:
(start at page 43) http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/irc/bitcoin/scalingbitcoin-review.pdf
Some discussion about which CPU architecture to use for a SNARKs prover, whether to use RISC-V or moxie or some other CPU design:

Still no word on SNARKs with trustless setup.
