On Thursday, a proposal to fund decentralized autonomous organization zkDAO passed via treasury protocol BitDAO with close to 200 million votes cast. The proposal was authored by Matter Labs — the organization behind scaling protocol zkSync — and Mirana Ventures.
Utilizing zk-Rollups, zkSync and its family of technologies will build layer-2 infrastructure capable of returning succinct proofs to the Ethereum network without sending the entire data. The result, if implemented, would mean a vastly speedier network. Zero-knowledge-based solutions have attracted much attention in recent months due to recurrently high levels of congestion on Ethereum, as well as exuberant gas fees. For example, Polygon is committing $1 billion to zero-knowledge tech firms and protocols. Aside from scaling, zero-knowledge proofs can also be used to obscure transactions and enhance individual privacy, such as via the Panther protocol.
