The ZK track narrative continues to heat up in 2023.
On the one hand, at the ETH Denver conference that just passed, ZK surpassed Defi, NFT and other hotspots, becoming the most frequently appearing vocabulary, attracting the attention of all participants; on the other hand, even under the background of the overall downturn in the encryption industry , The good news of the entire ZK track is also constant, such as Binance’s high-profile announcement of the introduction of ZK technology, Scroll completed a new round of financing and is about to launch the main network, and Ploygon zkEVM released the signal that the main network is about to start...
Capital is undoubtedly the vane of the market, and with the layout of large institutions such as Paradigm, a16z, and Sequoia, a large number of excellent developers are investing in ZK-related research, constantly accelerating the implementation of ZK technology. The Opside team has many years of experience in ZK technology development, and has been actively participating in the construction of the ZK ecosystem as always.
As one of the ZK construction teams in the market, Opside has attracted the attention of many institutions and individual investors, and has had many inquiries about the development of Opside, especially the technical innovation, so I would like to share with you here:
Opside's eight innovations:
ZK-RaaS. Opside provides a ZK-Rollup solution, while other RaaS platforms provide Optimistic Rollup. ZK-Rollup has advantages that opstack does not have: safer, more trustless, and faster withdrawal speed
Fully managed hardware. The two hardware resources required by ZK-Rollup: data availability (analogous to a hard disk) and zkp computing power (analogous to a CPU) are decentralized and license-free provided by PoS and PoW respectively. Developers do not need to bear any hardware costs.
0 gas fee. Based on Opside's innovative economic model, the developer pays the rent of the rollup slot, thereby bearing the cost of ZK-Rollup. If the developer is willing, the user does not need to pay any handling fees, or even hold an Opside token, as long as they have USDC, they can play the game.
Fully on-chain. Thanks to the extremely low gas fee and high throughput, games, financial derivatives and social networks can be fully chained.
EVM compatible. We have transformed multiple zkEVM consensus layers (including Polygon zkEVM, scroll, zkSync, StarkNet, etc.), and developers can freely choose the zkEVM SDK without migration costs.
sovereignty. Developers have the sovereignty of ZK-Rollup and can customize the rollup economic model, such as the 0 gas fee mentioned above.
Communication across rollups. The ZK-Rollup of layer 3 will be managed by a unified system contract. They have the same interface specification and data results, so that native cross-rollup communication can be realized.
More decentralized. Opside layer 2 adopts the PoS consensus of ETH 2.0 and will have more than 100k validators. At the same time, the permissionless PoW will attract more miners to jointly maintain security.
The above are the innovations of Opside at the technical level. We hope to communicate and learn with more peers or enthusiasts to build a ZK ecosystem together!
