LBank Joins Forces with zkSync to Foster Layer-2 Ethereum Scaling Solutions and Empower a New Generation of Decentralized Applications

Road Town, British Virgin Islands, May 1st, 2023, Chainwire

LBank, the leading cryptocurrency exchange, is excited to announce its collaboration with zkSync, a Layer-2 protocol that scales Ethereum using cutting-edge zero-knowledge (ZK) technology. LBank is among the first exchanges to publicly support zkSync, embracing its mission to scale Ethereum while preserving its core values – freedom, self-sovereignty, and decentralization.

The Inside Scoop

LBank and zkSync will host a Twitter Space event on May 3rd at 2:00 PM EDT, featuring guest Omar Azhar. This collaboration reflects LBank’s commitment to monitoring and supporting the growth of zkSync’s ecosystem, and actively engaging in its long-term development.

zkSync Overview

zkSync offers a wide range of benefits for users and developers, including:

1. Cheaper and faster transactions: zkSync reduces gas fees and increases transaction speeds, making it more cost-effective and efficient than Ethereum’s Layer 1

2. Low gas fees: zkSync enables up to 1/100 of Layer 1 gas fees, significantly reducing costs for users.

3. High-speed transfers: With over 2000 transactions per second, zkSync vastly outperforms Layer 1’s 14 transactions per second.

4. Security: zkSync maintains the security and decentralization of Ethereum by using ZK rollup technology, which bundles off-chain transactions and sends them back to Layer 1.

5. EVM compatibility: zkSync will be EVM compatible, allowing developers to easily transfer existing Layer 1 smart contracts to Layer 2 when zkSync transitions from version 1.0 (Lite) to 2.0 (Era) in early 2023.

6. Account Abstraction: Unlike other ZK rollups, zkSync supports Account Abstraction, which turns every account into a smart contract with its own logic, enabling tailored accounts for each user.

7. Robust backing: Developed by Matter Labs, zkSync has the backing of the Ethereum Foundation and top investors, and has been live since September 2020.

Some Notable projects in zkSync’s ecosystem

ZigZag: A decentralized exchange using zk-Rollups, empowering investors to swap tokens and perform spot trading straight from their wallets without additional charges or gas fees. ZigZag has also implemented a bridge to connect zkSync with Ethereum. Link:https://www.zigzag.exchange/

Taker Protocol: A platform based on a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), providing a liquidity framework for cryptocurrency tokens, synthetic assets, and NFTs. Taker Protocol enables crypto lending and borrowing, NFT lending, and even renting. Link: https://taker.org/
