Matter Labs Unveils ZKsync 3.0 Roadmap for Enhanced Interconnectivity

  • ZKsync introduces ZKsync 3.0 roadmap for interconnected ecosystem.
  • ZKsync 3.0 features Elastic Chain, similar to Polygon's AggLayer.
  • v24 upgrade turns ZKsync into an Elastic Chain.
  • Elastic Chain connects multiple ZK chains for seamless user experience.
  • Matter Labs' ZK Stack allows developers to build custom chains.
  • New trend in blockchain focuses on interoperability for users.

Summary :
Matter Labs, the development firm behind ZKsync, has unveiled its new roadmap, ZKsync 3.0, which aims to enhance interconnectivity within the ecosystem. The update introduces an "Elastic Chain" that resembles Polygon's AggLayer. The core of ZKsync 3.0 is the v24 upgrade, which transforms ZKsync into an Elastic Chain. This chain is made up of multiple chains within the ZKsync ecosystem, providing users with a seamless experience. Matter Labs released the ZK Stack last year, allowing developers to build their own blockchain on ZKsync's technology, with all custom chains interconnected through the Elastic Chain. The new Elastic Chain comprises three core components: the Native Token Vault, Shared Router, and ZK Gateway. These components manage the network's state, handle chain registrations, and enable interoperability between different chains. The Elastic Chain ensures efficient interaction and transactions between ZK chains, while inheriting the security of Ethereum. This move towards interoperability aligns with the industry trend of creating seamless connections between different blockchain ecosystems. Polygon's AggLayer follows a similar concept.
