ZK-rollup scaling that provides compatibility

An option for ZK-rollup scaling that provides compatibility with the Ethereum blockchain is called ZkSync. Without sacrificing Ethereum’s security, it seeks to give developers the option to move their apps from the Ethereum mainnet to zkSync Layer 2 with little gas cost and quick transaction times. On October 28, zkSync 2.0’s alpha release was made available as the first stage in a three-step procedure to make the Layer 2 network accessible to the general public.

In light of the productive collaboration, OpenZeppelin and Matter Labs have decided to keep working together in the long run to further improve the security of zkSync. The team said that the network security of zkSync now has an additional layer of reliability thanks to the security audits.

According to Anton Astafiev, head of security at Matter Labs, “Our collaboration with OpenZeppelin continues to produce such fantastic results, and we are delighted to broaden this alliance in order to further make zkSync as secure and dependable as possible for our users and ecosystem projects.”
