ZKsync Releases Prover API for Decentralization
ZKsync Releases Prover API for Decentralization
🔐 Proof of Decentralization
ZKsync has released a Prover API as part of their five-step plan to decentralize the Eras prover network. This API allows third parties to:
- Generate proofs
- Verify correctness against L1-submitted proofs
Provers are crucial for ZK rollups, handling:
- Transaction bundling
- Proof generation
- Transaction execution validation
The permissionless Prover API aims to enhance censorship resistance by decentralizing these critical operations.
ZKsync invites teams to:
- Test the API
- Benchmark performance
- Integrate it into their systems

Back in June, we laid out a five-step plan start decentralizing the ZKsync Era’s prover network. Today, we are releasing the Prover API that allows third parties to easily generate proofs and verify their correctness against L1-submitted proofs. Provers play a critical role in
.@NethermindEth and @the_matter_labs just completed the first formal verification of ZKsync's on-chain zk-verifier. This is a major milestone for ZKsync and blockchain security. So, what does this mean? 🧵👇
zkSync Bridge and Enterprise Updates
zkSync has launched significant updates to their infrastructure: - Bridge interface received a major redesign, improving user experience and accessibility at [zkSync Era Bridge](http://zksync.io/era#bridges) - Enterprise solutions platform unveiled at [zkSync Enterprise](http://www.zksync.io/enterprise), offering expanded capabilities for business integration The updates reflect zkSync's continued development of Layer 2 scaling solutions on Ethereum, focusing on enhanced usability and enterprise adoption. *Key improvements include streamlined navigation and clearer transaction flows.*
ZKsync Open Sources Key Infrastructure Components
Matter Labs has open-sourced two critical components of their zkSync infrastructure: - **ZKsync Airbender**: A new proof system designed to enhance interoperability - **ZKsync OS**: A flexible platform supporting multiple Virtual Machines (EVM, EraVM, WASM) The release marks a significant step in zkSync's commitment to open-source development and blockchain interoperability. Developers can now access the code at [Matter Labs GitHub](https://github.com/matter-labs/zksync-os). Further announcements about interoperability features are expected in the coming weeks.
