The zkSync expansion solution has not only won the favor of a large amount of capital. As of November last year, Matter Labs has raised $58 million from a16z, Union Square Ventures, and Placeholder. Of course, it also attracts other ecological projects or infrastructure.
Vitalik Buterinexpress, in the short term, Optimistic Rollups may win in general EVM calculations, and ZK Rollups may win in simple payments, transactions, and other application-specific use cases, but in the medium and long term, as ZK-SNARK As the technology improves, ZK Rollups will win in all use cases.
zkSync developed by Matter Labs, as an expansion solution based on the ZK Rollups architecture, has launched the 1.0 mainnet mainly focusing on payment purposes and the general 2.0 testnet fully compatible with EVM. In zkSync 2.0, the L2 state is divided into zkRollup and zkPorter with off-chain data availability, both composable and interoperable. This month, zkSync also upgraded its 2.0 portal, which supports payment of network fees with any token, which greatly improves user flexibility.

However, since zkSync 1.0 is not yet compatible with EVM, there are only about 10 projects that have supported or integrated zkSync, most of which are wallet and payment gateway projects, including Argent, ZigZag, Ramp Network, Banxa, wallet Numio, imToken, Orbiter Finance, MathWallet, payment gateway Sprintcheckout, The Graph. The AMM protocol Mute.io has launched the zkSync 2.0 test network. In addition, it is currently possible to participate in Gitcoin donation activities through zkSync. It is expected that zkSync 2.0 will promote ecological development in the field of DeFi and NFT after it is officially launched.
It is a Layer2 mobile wallet application based on Ethereum and zkSync, which also integrates cryptocurrency purchase and exchange functions. According to the roadmap, Numio will later integrate other Layer2 solutions, as well as integrate NFT and DeFi functions, including mining and lending.

ZigZag Bridge (already live)
In addition, zkSync also supports logging in to zkSync through Wallet Connect or Ethereum wallets MetaMask, Formatic, Trezor and Ledger on its official wallet page, and then MetaMask, 1inch Wallet and MyKey will also support zkSync.
bridge
At present, a total of 15 cross-chain solutions or bridges have or will integrate zkSync, among which ZigZag and Orbiter Finance already support the cross-chain between zkSync and other blockchains.

Via Protocol
Via ProtocolIn addition, according to the content updated by zkSync last month, the bridges supporting zkSync will also include DAI Wormhole (built by Maker, which will allow users to transfer DAI between Layer2), Hop Exchange, and LayerZero.
According to the official website, Via.Exchange’s partners include NEAR, Biconomy, etc., and previously completed a $1.2 million pre-seed roundfinancing, investors include Ravikant Capital and Shima Capital, etc.
Other bridge infrastructures that are preparing or are integrating zkSync include Automata Network, Connext, Celer, Composable Finance, Poly Network, Multichain, Nomad (a cross-chain communication solution, the token bridge has been launched on Ethereum and Moonbeam) and deBridge, which will not be discussed here. Let me introduce you further.

Banxa, MoonPay, Ramp Network, Simplex, and UTORG, which provide fiat-to-crypto gateway solutions, will provide the ability to purchase cryptocurrencies directly on zkSync through various payment methods. Among them, Banxa and Ramp Network have already begun to support zkSync.

Layer2 payment gateway based on ZkSyncSprintcheckoutis also live. Sprintcheckout launched a payment gateway for merchants that allows merchant customers to pay via ZkSync, accepting ETH or ERC-20 tokens as payment. There is no fee charged by the customer and a 0.5% Sprintcheckout transaction fee and ZkSync fee charged by the merchant on each transaction.

Matter Labs has officially launched zkSync block explorer and analysis platform zkScan before. In addition, Matter Labs also stated that it will also ensure that users can access zkSync data through Etherscan and Blockscout in the future.

exchange Major exchanges including Crypto.com, Bybit, Huobi, Blockchain.com, OKEx, and Ripio are also building direct deposit and withdrawal capabilities using zkSync for their users. So far, there are 30 projects in the DeFi ecosystem listed on the zkSync website, some of which are duplicated with the projects listed above. However, the only ZK Rollup-based order book DEX ZigZag and the AMM protocol Mute that are currently on the zkSync mainnet. io has launched the zkSync 2.0 Goerli test network. Other projects that will be built on top of zkSync include: Babylon Finance (Asset Management Agreement) Dank Protocol (fixed rate agreement) CVI (Crypto Volatility Index protocol built by COTI) Hedgey (DeFi Derivative Protocol) Angle Protocol (Stable Coin Protocol) Gro Protocol (stable currency yield aggregator) Increment (a perpetual contract agreement based on zkSync and using Curve V2's AMM to execute transactions, and also received Aave Grant donation in February) Yearn Finance Mute.io (AMM and IDO platform based on ZK-Rollup, has launched zkSync Goerli test network) Frax (algorithmic stablecoin protocol) WOO Network Taker Protocol (liquidity protocol for NFT and synthetic assets, etc.) 1inch Network 88mph Vovo Finance (structured product protocol, previously launched on Arbitrum) Hashflow Alchemix Vovo Finance (structured product protocol, previously launched on Arbitrum) OlympusDAO Since zkSync 1.0 is not EVM compatible, the only NFT functionality currently available is the built-in wallet minting functionality. Other NFT projects, games or marketplaces exploring building on zkSync 2.0 include: Mint Square (an NFT market based on Layer 2 ZK Rollup, which has previously supported NFT minting on the StarkNet Goerli test network, and will support zkSync 2.0 later) Other ecological projects exploring building on zkSync include Snapshot, Aragon that allows anyone to create and manage decentralized organizations, Forward Protocol, and clr.fund. OpenStars (P2E space strategy game) Other ecological projects exploring building on zkSync include Snapshot, Aragon that allows anyone to create and manage decentralized organizations, Forward Protocol, and clr.fund. Risk warning: Most of the native projects based on zkSync are in the testing stage, and the project team and security audit information are not disclosed too much, so users are reminded to identify risks by themselves. clr.fund is a Gnosis Chain-based quadratic financing protocol that effectively allocates matching funds to public goods in the Ethereum ecosystem. It combines quadratic financing, zk-SNARKs, minimized anti-collusion infrastructure (MACI) and Sybil attacks, working towards more democratization and greater funding of public goods. zkSync has previously confirmed the shift to decentralization and publishing. In the latest update, zkSync stated that the current zkSync is completely run by the server of the zkSync team and is centralized. It is currently close to balance of payments. Of course, it will be adjusted according to the gas fee from time to time. its costs. However, zkSync will move towards decentralization and currency issuance in the future, and the current priority is to solve the scalability of Ethereum. When zkSync is completely decentralized, an independent consensus mechanism and two different roles will be introduced. Among them, the verifier needs to pledge tokens, and the other role is Guardian, that is, the majority of nominated verifiers who pledge their token shares. part holders.
