The ZK comprehensive platform leads a new paradigm for Rollup, assisting Ethereum Layer 2 scalability.
The Birth of the New Paradigm of Rollup
Layer1 expansion is imperative
The Ethereum network is becoming increasingly busy, with the number of users continuously rising, especially during popular events, where gas fees often soar. At the same time, the rising price of Ether has also led to high transaction costs, hindering small transactions. Therefore, improving storage efficiency, transaction throughput, and reducing latency is crucial for the development of Ethereum.
Traditional Layer 1 scaling solutions include both on-chain and off-chain forms. On-chain scaling is optimized through improvements in consensus mechanisms, implementing sharding, and enlarging blocks. Off-chain scaling mainly includes sidechains and Layer 2, with Layer 2 relying on the security protocols of the mainnet, which are generally more secure than sidechains.
The main implementation methods of Layer 2 include Channel, Plasma, and Rollup. Rollup, as a further extension of Plasma, has higher security, state validity, and data verification capabilities, and has become the main direction for the development of Layer 2.
Two Major Branches of Rollup Technology
Rollups are divided into two main branches: Optimistic-Rollup and ZK-Rollup. Optimistic-Rollup assumes that the submitted transaction results are correct and sets a challenge period for verification. ZK-Rollup, on the other hand, immediately verifies the correctness of transactions through zero-knowledge proofs, providing higher security and faster confirmation speeds, and is considered the future development direction of Layer 2.
However, due to the high technical implementation difficulty of ZK-Rollup, the Rollup market is still dominated by Optimistic-Rollup. How to develop standardized ZK-Rollup solutions and expand their application range has become a key issue. Emerging comprehensive ZK platforms may provide a breakthrough for this.
The Rise of the ZK Comprehensive Platform
A global distributed modular computing network combines DePIN technology to provide computational support for ZK-Rollup, ZK ML, ZKP, and more. This platform focuses on ZK-RaaS development, aiming to provide a complete deployment and implementation solution for ZK Rollup, addressing multiple issues such as incompatibility among current ZK-Rollup solutions, centralization of computational power, and concentration of risks.
The project team has been deeply engaged in the ZK field since 2018, completing multiple rounds of financing over the past few years, with its valuation continuously rising. Since the launch of its testnet, it has amassed a large number of nodes, operational Rollups, and millions of transaction records. On the technical level, the platform has introduced the ZK-Rollup Launchbase, supporting multiple mainstream networks and achieving several breakthrough technologies.
Unified ZK Technical Solution
The platform provides a modular computing layer, including a settlement layer, execution layer, consensus layer, data availability layer, and a core proof layer. By integrating ZK computing resources with a re-staking mechanism, the security of active validation services is enhanced.
The platform has optimized the ZKP computation and submission mechanism, supporting parallel computation and sequential submission, while using recursive aggregation algorithms to reduce resource consumption. At the same time, its ZK-RaaS solution supports various mainstream zkEVM technologies, greatly simplifying the deployment process of ZK-Rollup.
The platform also supports multiple architecture modes, including modular computing layers, native cross-Rollup communication, and customizable infrastructure services, providing developers with great flexibility.
Token Economic Model
The platform adopts a dual-token governance model, which includes the native token of the mainnet and the ecological governance token. The mainnet token is used to pay transaction fees and service fees and can be exchanged for ecological tokens at a 1:1 ratio. The ecological token is used to incentivize network participants and facilitate decentralized governance.
The exchange ratio of ecological tokens to mainnet tokens is adjusted according to the redemption period, effectively balancing miner profits and market pressure, while protecting the rights and interests of token holders.
Future Development Prospects
As ZK-Rollup is considered the best solution for Layer 2, the emergence of this platform meets the urgent need to integrate ZK-Rollup and promote industry development. Its modular design, optimized ZKP process, and simplified deployment plan are expected to solve long-standing problems in the ZK-Rollup field and pave the way for the widespread application of this technology.
Overall, the emergence of this ZK comprehensive platform may become an important milestone in the development of ZK-Rollup, opening a new chapter for blockchain scalability technology.
