Decentralizing ZK proofs, restaking for modular security, and the road to trustless scaling
ZK needs decentralized proving networks, or we're just moving trust to a new bottleneck.
Same goes for L2s.
In today's episode, we cover how EigenLayer attempts to create a new way to coordinate decentralized proving networks so no single entity controls the backbone of ZK systems.
We sit down with zkSync co-inventor, Alex Gluchowski and EigenLayer founder, Sreeram to cover how modular scaling works, why decentralizing proof generation matters, what this means for DeFi builders wanting flexibility without sacrificing security, and more.
This conversation drills into modular design and the future of verifiable computation.
Enjoy.
