zenBTC, Zenrock's flagship product, brings decentralized yield-bearing wrapped Bitcoin to high-performance chains. Launching on Solana & SEI first, zenBTC addresses the critical shortage of wrapped Bitcoin solutions in DeFi's fastest-growing ecosystems.

Powered by $ROCK, Zenrock's decentralized custody network eliminates single points of failure through advanced dMPC technology. This infrastructure enables zenBTC to maintain complete security while generating native yield for holders through partnerships with restaking protocols.

$ROCK serves as the native token for Zenrock's ecosystem, securing the network through staking and governance. Value flows to $ROCK through protocol fees, network activity, and deflationary mechanisms, aligning network security with zenBTC adoption.

zkSync Era is a Layer-2 protocol that scales Ethereum with cutting-edge ZK tech. Our mission is not only to merely increase Ethereum's throughput, but to fully preserve its foundational values – freedom, self-sovereignty, decentralization – at scale.

<ul>
<li>This consulting report explores ZKsync's transformation from a Layer 2 scaling solution into the Elastic Network, a groundbreaking ecosystem of interoperable ZK Chains positioned to revolutionize institutional blockchain adoption.</li>
<li>With Bitcoin ETF inflows exceeding $30B and major players like BlackRock embracing blockchain technology, 2024 has marked unprecedented institutional interest in crypto.</li>
<li>However, widespread adoption faces two key challenges: blockchain fragmentation and the inability of public networks to meet institutional requirements for privacy and compliance.</li>

Virtual currencies are decentralized, math-based digital assets in which transactions can be performed cryptographically without the need for a central issuing authority. The first specification and proof of concept of Bitcoin, the first widely used virtual currency, was published in 2009 based on a paper published pseudonymously by Satoshi Nakamoto.

Sui Network: Demystifying the Monolithic Contender

Ethereum is an open-source, public, blockchain-based distributed computing platform featuring smart contract (scripting) functionality. It provides a decentralized Turing-complete virtual machine, the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which can execute scripts using an international network of public nodes. Ethereum also provides a cryptocurrency token called "ether", which can be transferred between accounts and used to compensate participant nodes for computations performed. "Gas", an internal transaction pricing mechanism, is used to mitigate spam and allocate resources on the network.
