The state of zkSync: scaling, security, UX, traction, challenges, financials | Fundamentals ep.75
In this episode of the Fundamentals podcast, we’re joined by Alex, the Co-Founder and CEO of Matter Labs – the engineering team behind zkSync – a Layer-2 blockchain protocol that scales Ethereum with zero knowledge technology.
In this episode with Alex, we discuss what zkSync’s core value proposition is, and why zero-knowledge proofs are the most viable technology to enable the mainstream adoption of public blockchains.
We speak about Hyperchains, and what the zkSync ecosystem will evolve into on a long-term horizon. Alex walks us through the current painpoints with crypto’s UX, and how zkSync is tackling these problems.
We dive into zkSync Era’s economic model, the venture case for a blockchain protocol, and walk through the best metrics to measure the performance of a blockchain.
Finally, we wrap up with the current challenges related to zkSync’s growth, and what the most exciting things happening within the zkSync ecosystem are.
Tune in for a great discussion about zkSync, and scaling Ethereum’s technology and values
