Polygon MATIC: Colaboración con NEAR Foundation

Expanding the L2 market by introducing Wasm chains to Ethereum.

Polygon Labs and NEAR Foundation are teaming up to develop a zero-knowledge (ZK) prover for Wasm blockchains in order to bridge the gap between Wasm-based chains and the Ethereum ecosystem. When complete, a zkWasm prover will add additional customizability for developers building with Polygon CDK (Chain Development Kit).

So what does this mean?

NEAR Foundation will become a core contributor to Polygon CDK (Chain Development Kit), expanding developer options for building custom blockchains. This means projects will be able to select from a number of provers when building with Polygon CDK, whether that’s launching or migrating an EVM chain, or building a Wasm chain for closer Ethereum alignment and access to liquidity.

The zkWasm prover will be a new runtime to generate zero-knowledge proofs that prove the native Wasm runtime execution is correct, which will result in better scalability and increased decentralization.

This innovation can bring NEAR Protocol | NEARCON | November 7-10 | Lisbon! closer to Ethereum, enabling Wasm chains to tap Ethereum liquidity.
