The Gateway to ZK: The Resiliency and Expandability of the Elastic Network
ZKsync is the endgame, but how will we reach the new paradigm? The Elastic Network, powered by ZKsync, is an ecosystem of natively interconnected and interoperable blockchains that share liquidity, community, and more, while also being secured by math to resolve many of Ethereum’s current shortcomings.
