Polygon Lands First User of New 'AggLayer,' Inking Deal With Astar Network
Summary
Astar, a blockchain network, announced that its Astar zkEVM will be the first to fully integrate into Polygon’s AggLayer. AggLayer is a solution that connects blockchains with zero-knowledge proofs to other networks in Polygon’s ecosystem, providing unified liquidity. Astar zkEVM is powered by Polygon’s Chain Development Kit (CDK), which allows users to build their own zero-knowledge blockchains. By integrating with AggLayer, Astar users can access liquidity in the Polygon ecosystem and conduct cross-chain transactions between Astar and Polygon zkEVM. Polygon’s AggLayer, launched in February, aims to address blockchain shortcomings and unify various blockchain projects using Polygon’s technology.
