Founded by seasoned software architects and backed by top-tier investors such as a16z, Blockchain Capital, and Union Square Ventures, Matter Labs is the core team behind zkSync Era.
Over 200 ecosystem projects across DeFi, NFTs, games, privacy, and DAOs have registered their interest to deploy on zkSync Era. See our full list of ecosystem projects.
zkSync’s mission is to accelerate the mass adoption of crypto for personal sovereignty.
As the most Ethereum-aligned L2, every technical decision for zkSync Era is judged against the principles of trustlessness, permissionless access, censorship resistance, resilience, and formability. Security, decentralization, community ownership, and censorship resistance are core to our success.
This could take years, but we’re all in it for the long haul.
