Alchemy has integrated support for zkSync, in order to offer blockchain developers “a seamless developer experience.”
Thanks to the integration of Ethereum's zero-knowledge (ZK)-powered Layer2 scalability solution, zkSync, Alchemy can now offer a much more powerful Web3 development infrastructure. more reliable, secure and scalable for its developers.
zkSync support also raises the flexibility and increases the usability blockchain technology, thanks to the fact that this Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible L2 solution integrates support for account abstraction natively, allowing it to significantly improve the user experience of the technology. This, as noted by Alchemy, will offer developers a secure and innovative building environment in which they will be able to create and deploy on-chain applications more easily, while users will be able to benefit from lower transaction costs and improved on-chain security.
Building new DApps on zkSync with Alchemy
One of the advantages that Alchemy highlighted, about building new protocols and DApps using zkSync through its infrastructure, is the accessibility to technology zkSync's hyperscalable capabilities and the powerful tools of Alchemy, all in one place.
On X (formerly Twitter), zkSync builders also noted that the integration of their L2 scaling protocol will give blockchain developers access to various Web3 building and development tools, such as supernode RPC, token API, Alchemy Signer, and more. All of these cutting-edge tools are focused on facilitating the creation of fast, affordable, and easy-to-use applications on the blockchain.
Another advantage of the recent integration is the zkSync compatibility with EVM.
Alchemy emphasized that zkSync is the first ZK rollup compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, so developers do not need to make major changes to their code to deploy and scale their applications and protocols. “You just need to copy and paste your Solidity code and deploy it to zkSync with your existing Ethereum infrastructure,” the Alchemy team highlighted.
The integration of Ethereum's L2 solution with one of the leading Web3 development platforms also benefits users, by enjoying increased security and performance and lower transaction costsThis, according to Alchemy, could unlock a new wave of adoption for major DeFi projects built on the network.
On the other hand, Web3 protocols such as Pudgy Penguins are expected to offer their users and cryptocollectors better Web3 experiences that encourage entry into the digital world.
Main use cases of zkSync
The list of benefits of integrating zkSync support into Alchemy extends to all major use cases for Ethereum’s L2 solution, from DeFi to crypto collectibles and NFTs to digital identity.
In its blog post, Alchemy highlighted the initiative of the local government of Buenos Aires (Argentina), together with the self-sovereign identity protocol QuarkID, to issue self-sovereign digital identity certificates to its citizens, powered by zkSync technology.
“This initiative aims to provide secure, transparent and privacy-preserving digital identity solutions in Argentina,” said the Alchemy development team.
Finally, the Web3 infrastructure platform ensures that blockchain builders using their tools will enjoy world-class engineering support, available 24/7, in addition to other developer features such as sandboxes, logs, and an easy-to-use dashboard interface.
