Almost 15 months ago we launched with the promise to always bring the latest validation technologies to market. Today LayerZero is doing just that by rolling out a production grade zk light client from the @PolyhedraZK team.
The @PolyhedraZK team’s zkLightClient is based off of their renowned work on zkp (arxiv.org/abs/2210.00264). Built exclusively on LayerZero, it’s custom circuits produce significant compression and allow multiple tx verifications to be batched into a single zero-knowledge proof.
Now with a simple configuration update, any application can leverage the power of a zk light client. This extremely powerful design primitive is completely unique to LayerZero: Application owned security.
Tenet is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain focused on DeFi.
Tenet's Diversified Proof of Stake consensus mechanism enables the staking of multiple assets as well as the staking of assets from one chain on another chain via interchain staking.
With LayerZero, projects building on Tenet can quickly deploy their application across the entire LayerZero network.
Developers already building with LayerZero can easily deploy on Tenet.
Today we introduce a new project codenamed Essence, which separates security and operational burden. Essence allows anybody to spin up and run a validator (Oracle & Relayer) in <1 hour. Before, validators took months to build and required the support of a full devops team.
Before Essence, running validators was cumbersome; requiring the management of security, gas prices, chain specific transaction listeners and senders, and wallet rebalancing across 30+ chains.
With Essence teams can easily scale their validator sets to 10, 100, or even 1000 validators
We're excited to introduce the Testnet Bridge as the first of several tools we launch for the Ethereum developer community.
Cliffs: Get Goerli-ETH quickly, easily, and begin testing ASAP without camping faucets or feeling stranded
The Testnet Bridge (testnetbridge.com) is now live and creates a way to connect open markets for immediate pricing of ETH/Goerli-ETH.
The initial price of Goerli-ETH is set to $0.10 and the pool is seeded with 12,500 Goerli-ETH.
These pools are open and hosted on @Uniswap on both Ethereum and Goerli. We welcome the community to LP and actively trade to achieve real price discovery and equilibrium. The two pools are listed as
Recently @pudgypenguins opened a portal over LayerZero. Let's take a look back at @pudgypenguins history, @LucaNetz takeover, their great migration and the incredible community they've built
The date is July, 2021 - Mint is live (largely unsuccessful)
