QuickNode’s Latest Move Boosts Enterprise Data Privacy with zkSync Hyperchains
Blockchain infrastructure provider QuickNode has collaborated with Matter Labs, the principal developer of zkSync, to launch zkSync hyperchains on its platform. The latest partnership brings hyperchains to the list of custom chains on QuickNode, providing high scalability, speed and privacy to applications built atop it. The partnership will allow clients, developers, and enterprises to access zero-knowledge technology on demand, the press statement from the team reads.
Hyperchains work as independent zk-rollup chains that compute transactions separately from Layer-1, generate zk-proof, and submit it to L1 for finality. This technology provides users with a hyper-scalable, interoperable, and customizable zk-chain, which can be run on a Layer 1 or Layer 2 blockchain and provides interconnectivity and security from the main chain.
Praising the partnership with Matter Labs to incorporate hyperchains into the QuickNode platform, Jason Hunt, VP of Ecosystem at QuickNode, stated:
“We’re excited to expand our partnership with Matter Labs, incorporating their zkSync hyperchains into the QuickNode platform. Hyperchains introduce a unique blend of scaling, user experience, and privacy enhancements, critical for powering the next wave of adoption across the rollup ecosystem.”
Termed as the “best-in-class” blockchain solution, hyperchains on QuickNode will allow enterprises and clients to highly scale their solutions. This makes the blockchain suitable for some of the world’s largest companies looking to build blockchain-based solutions by enhancing the trust and performance required to deliver custom solutions.
“Combined with QuickNode’s Custom Chain technology, we enable both startups and enterprises to launch and scale blockchains, tailor-made for their specific use cases and requirements,” Hunt added.
Hyperchains also unlock several capabilities and use cases for global companies, given their high speed and low costs compared to L1 blockchains. This opens up the blockchain space for traditional companies, enterprises, and developers to build futuristic use cases for their customers, which was not previously feasible with Layer 1 blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Crucially, hyperchains add a layer of security (as the transactions will be finalized on Layer 1s), while offering a highly scalable and fast platform for applications built on QuickNode. In addition, hyperchains also provide unrivalled data privacy which makes them ideal for hosting enterprise use cases. This enables businesses to create blockchain-powered products while remaining compliant, with assurances that users’ data is protected against malicious attacks.
The speed and seamless development of QuickNode makes the blockchain ideal for businesses as well. The platform provides development toolkits, which enhance the application development process on the platform. Instead of building everything from scratch, QuickNode provides a plug-and-play model, allowing developers to fully focus on building the best app capabilities and experience for their users.
As voiced by Vassilis Tziokas, Head of Enterprise at Matter Labs, hyperchain technology bridges the gap for enterprises entering the blockchain field, making the onboarding process much easier. In praise of QuickNode’s latest integration, Tziokas added:
“In order to expand adoption of blockchain and zk technologies in the enterprise space, it is important that companies like QuickNode support the seamless development of hyperchains, making them available to a wider community.”
This saves developers precious time and resources, allowing faster deployment of apps to market and minimizing infrastructure obstacles in creating DApps. By utilizing QuickNode, they can bring their application on-chain in a fraction of the time with reliable infrastructure that will support rapid growth.
The introduction of hyperchains to QuickNode also provides a highly interoperable and customizable infrastructure for applications, providing cross-chain functionality and shared liquidity options. Enterprises building on QuickNode will now be able to share capabilities and liquidity with the wide network of partners on the platform, building an end-to-end ecosystem of integrated web3 services.
“Hyperchains are a great gateway for enterprises to onboard in the web3 ecosystem through a technology stack that can be customized to meet their specific needs,” concluded Tziokas.
