This year, we're attending @ethbelgrade @SuperteamBLKN for the first time! While conversations are mainly focused on RWA, trading, institutions, it's great to see bottom-up Defi primitives being built right now to keep the original Web3 ethos alive Ping us if you are around 📍

With Moonbeam and Moonriver wrapping up their run as Polkadot parachains and moving to Base, this is our last update as Orbiter/Collator. We kept our collators online until the last useful block, then executed a planned exit within the migration window. If you haven't already, you can proceed with your migration before the deadline. Thank you to the Foundation, which selected, nominated and trusted us along the way. We'll be watching what comes next on Base, ready to run nodes again if the chance comes.

It's that time of the year when you only wait for @eth_milano

Less crowded than last year and with some bear market vibes, but attending @EthCC is always inspirational

yes sir 🫡

Congrats to @mellowprotocol on launching the first Core Vault with @LidoFinance!

2m+ proofs verified via @ZKVProtocol, well done! 👏

Thrilled to join zkVerify as a genesis validator, leveraging our decade-long expertise to enhance network security. What a chance to help power scalable proof verification amid growing global demand for zero-knowledge tech 🤝 A universal verification layer is essential for the ZK era

Staying DN-rule compliant just got easier! We noticed there wasn’t a quick way to check unpaid eras for validators on #Polkadot & #Kusama… so we built one 👀 A clean UI that lists all unpaid eras at a glance 👇 ➡️ dn-payouts.openbitlab.com/

With 160 active validators on @ssv_network, and together with the 80 validators on @Obol_Collective, we just achieved 240 $ETH staked! At the current price, we crossed $35m 💰 Check it out 👇🏻 explorer.ssv.network/mainnet… explorer.rated.network/o/Obo…

Our Insightful Ibex cluster - powered by @ssv_network - is consistently the best pool of @LidoFinance SimpleDVT Module 📈 With a 30-day raver of 98.74%, it outperforms the average Ethereum validators' raver of 97.91% 🔥 Check it out: explorer.rated.network/o/Lid…

All the best for your future!

What’s next Here is a glimpse into their roadmap 👇 🔹 Release more verifiers 🔹 Unlock more integrations 🔹 Governance going live 🔹 ProofPoints + ZK Games continue

The journey ⚙️ Public Testnet Beta (early 2024): laid architecture, onboarded early verifiers: Fflonk, Groth16, Risc0, zkSync Era zkVerify ⚙️ Incentivized Testnet + ProofPoints: community-powered stress tests, gaming, voting & feedback zkVerify ⚙️ Permanent Testnet (Volta): performance tune-ups, expanded verifier support (Ultraplonk, SP1, Plonky2, Halo2, etc.), bridging zkVerify to the EVM via VFlow parachain ⚙️ Mainnet Launch: validator set genesis, token live, infrastructure ready for builders

Architecture Built on Substrate, zkVerify leverages modular design for performance & composability. By separating proof verification from execution, it avoids L1 bottlenecks, reducing latency & scaling with demand. Standardized interfaces make it easy to plug zkVerify into any ecosystem while keeping execution flexible.

Why zkVerify matters ➡️ The cost of verifying ZK proofs is massive: $100M+ projected in 2024, scaling to $1.5B by 2028. ➡️ On Ethereum, a single proof can consume 200k–300k gas. ➡️ The ecosystem is fragmented with different chains, standards & verifiers. zkVerify proposes a solution with a universal, decentralized verification layer for any proof, on any chain.

zkVerify just launched on mainnet 🎉 A dedicated layer built for ZK proof verification is now live: workload can now be offloaded from L1s, lowering and stabilizing verification costs. And we’re excited to help safeguard the network from day one!

We're glad to have been selected for another round of @Web3foundation Decentralized Nodes Program! We will serve Cohort #3 with passion and commitment, helping Polkadot and Kusama to get ready for JAM 🤝 Winner list: nodes.web3.foundation/cohort…
