Today, we’re thrilled to announce a major milestone in Taiko’s journey: the integration of Zero-Knowledge (ZK) proofs into our mainnet, strengthening our robust multi-proof based rollup. This enhancement complements our existing multi-proof architecture, which includes TEE proofs, establishing one of the most comprehensive security systems in the Layer 2 space. With industry-leading zkVMs from Succinct and RISC Zero, Taiko’s mainnet reaches a new level of security and scalability.
