ZK is the endgame for unlimited scaling in Web3
ZK is the endgame for unlimited scaling in Web3
ZK technology enables unlimited scaling in Web3 without compromising decentralization. The endgame is thousands of permissionless hyperchains with thousands of transactions per second (TPS), with ZK proofs aggregated into one for each block. Ethereum will serve as the most decentralized settlement layer. Each transaction will be verified by every user in under 1 second. UX and liquidity fragmentation will be addressed, allowing seamless transactions between chains and free flow of liquidity. This vision will become reality on Ethereum in 2024.
1k TPS is a drop in the ocean of the world's demand for Web3. The Internet can't run on a single server. The Internet of Value can't run on a single monolithic blockchain, no matter how fast and willing to sacrifice decentralization. The endgame is ZK singularity: ⧫
Say what you want about SOL hitting its scaling limits today At least SOL is trying, as ETH gave up on scaling a long time ago SOL is clocking in over 1k TPS of real usage every day! While ETH has remained stuck on 100 TPS for three years, they have no ground left to stand on!
ZK Proofs Enable Private Transactions on Prividiums
At the Linux Foundation Decentralized event in London, a presentation demonstrated how **Prividiums** maintain complete privacy for transactions, counterparties, and balances. **Key technical approach:** - Zero-knowledge proofs verify transaction correctness - Raw information remains unexposed throughout the process - Privacy is preserved while maintaining verifiability The technology supports **Trust-Based Finance** applications, allowing programs to measure impact and secure funding while maintaining user privacy. This privacy-first approach aims to build trust in the verification process.
UAE Settles Over AED 150M on Blockchain Under Central Bank Oversight
The UAE's ADIChain Digital Dirham Settlement Coin (DDSC) has processed over AED 150 million in settlements under Central Bank of UAE (CBUAE) supervision. **Key Points:** - Settlement infrastructure built on zkSync technology - Demonstrates institutional adoption of regulated, non-USD stablecoins - Operates under central bank oversight, ensuring compliance The milestone highlights growing demand for blockchain-based settlement systems that meet regulatory requirements while serving institutional needs. The DDSC represents a regulated approach to digital currency infrastructure in the Middle East.
zkSync Releases Deep-Dive on Private Atomic DvP Technology
zkSync has published a comprehensive breakdown of their **Private Atomic Delivery versus Payment (DvP)** technology. The deep-dive thread explores how this mechanism enables secure, simultaneous exchange of assets while maintaining privacy - a critical feature for institutional and retail trading on Layer 2. **Key aspects likely covered:** - Atomic settlement ensuring both parties receive assets simultaneously - Privacy-preserving features for transaction details - Implementation within zkSync's zkRollup infrastructure This development represents zkSync's continued focus on building institutional-grade infrastructure while maintaining the privacy and security standards expected in modern blockchain systems.
