ZKsync is a blockchain network protected by cryptography rather than validators. Its cutting-edge zero-knowledge proof technology provides the privacy, performance, and connectivity needed for enterprises to thrive in the digital asset economy.

ZKsync offers three core products: ZK Stack, an open-source framework for building customizable enterprise-grade zero-knowledge proof blockchains that achieve global scalability, native interoperability, and Ethereum security inheritance; Prividium™, a secure Ethereum blockchain platform built for institutions requiring privacy, compliance, and full data control; ZKsync Connect, the first interoperability protocol built for institutions, enabling real-time, secure cross-public and private system connections through zero-knowledge proofs.

The network supports users in issuing, controlling, and monetizing custom high-performance EVM chains, tokenizing and monetizing real-world assets, building programmable capital markets, and supporting real-time cross-border settlements. Airbender, the world’s fastest RISC-V proof machine, achieves sub-second block proofs, Ethereum finality in minutes, and low-cost transfers at approximately $0.0001 per transaction. The platform features fully open-source, independently audited, battle-tested proof systems, multi-layer defense architecture, and a bug bounty program offering rewards up to $1.1 million.

Recent Important News about ZK (ZKsync):

1️⃣ ZK-EVM achieves production-level performance, becoming a core solution for Ethereum scalability
ZK-EVM has entered the alpha stage with production-level performance, with remaining work focused on security optimization. As the core technological foundation of ZKsync, the maturity of ZK-EVM directly enhances the platform’s position within the Ethereum ecosystem. This progress validates the feasibility of zero-knowledge proofs for large-scale applications and provides solid technical support for ZKsync’s main product, ZK Stack.

2️⃣ PeerDAS mainnet launch opens space for Ethereum-ZK ecosystem collaboration
PeerDAS has officially launched on the Ethereum mainnet. Its integration with ZK-EVM will simultaneously break through the trilemma of decentralization, consensus mechanism, and high throughput. This technological combination is transforming Ethereum into a high-bandwidth peer-to-peer network, creating more favorable infrastructure conditions for ZKsync as an Ethereum layer-two solution.

3️⃣ Future Gas scalability route creates clear expectations for ZK-EVM’s large-scale application
Starting from 2026, with mechanisms like BAL and ePBS, Ethereum’s Gas limit is expected to gradually increase; between 2026-2028, Gas re-pricing and state structure adjustments will occur; from 2027-2030, ZK-EVM is expected to become the main method for network block validation. This clear technological evolution path provides long-term demand certainty for ZKsync’s zero-knowledge proof-based scalability solutions and clarifies its core role within the Ethereum ecosystem.
