ZKsync Association Releases First Year Operational Report

ZKsync has joined over 200 organizations calling on the U.S. Senate to bring the **Clarity Act** to a floor vote. The bill, which previously passed the Banking Committee with bipartisan support, aims to establish clear regulatory rules for digital asset markets. **Key Points:** - The Clarity Act would create a defined legal framework for the digital asset industry - Bill has already cleared the Banking Committee with support from both parties - Organizations argue the legislation is necessary to maintain U.S. competitiveness in crypto markets - Senate action is now required to move the bill forward The push represents a coordinated effort by the crypto industry to secure regulatory clarity that has long been absent in U.S. digital asset policy.

**Korea's equity market is now accessible on GRVT**, a real-world asset (RWA) platform built on ZKsync's Layer 2 infrastructure. - Korea's stock market, currently one of the top-performing major equity markets globally, expands GRVT's tokenized asset offerings - The integration leverages ZKsync's zkRollup technology to bring traditional financial markets onchain - This follows GRVT's participation in the Global Markets Alliance, which aims to standardize how tokenized stocks and ETFs operate in the crypto ecosystem The move represents another step in bridging traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure, allowing users to access Korean equities through a decentralized platform.

**Institutional momentum continues across ZKsync Network** This week saw continued progress in institutional blockchain adoption across several key areas: - **Tokenized deposits** expanding institutional access - **Digital settlement infrastructure** development advancing - **Smart wallet** implementations growing - **Real World Assets (RWAs)** gaining traction The developments reflect ongoing institutional deployment rather than exploratory phases. Traditional finance entities are actively building and allocating resources on blockchain infrastructure. **Notable context**: Tradable previously tokenized $1.7B in private credit on ZKsync, positioning the network as the #2 RWA chain behind Ethereum. The focus remains on practical implementation across security, privacy, and interoperability - core infrastructure needs for institutional participants. [ZKsync Network](https://zksync.io)

ZKsync has launched **Prividiums**, a new framework enabling institutions to create private yet interoperable blockchain environments. Key features include: - Private onchain environments tailored for institutional needs - Maintained interoperability across blockchain networks - **Selective disclosure** capabilities for compliance - Cryptographic auditability for regulatory requirements The solution addresses a critical challenge: institutions can now operate with privacy while meeting compliance standards. Traditional blockchain transparency often conflicts with regulatory requirements, but Prividiums bridge this gap. ZKsync emphasizes that privacy and compliance work together rather than oppose each other. The cryptographic approach allows institutions to prove compliance without exposing sensitive data.
