Stratis is pleased to announce Verium, a next-generation flexible blockchain technology that brings high performance, scalability, and modular flexibility to developers and enterprises, powered by zkSync zero-knowledge proof technology. In the process of continuously providing innovative solutions and enhancing user experience, Stratis is leveraging zkSync's advanced zero-knowledge rollup technology to bring fast, secure transactions to its ecosystem. With the launch of GPU Prover, Verium will provide fast transaction proof speed, making it an ideal platform for deploying blockchain-based games.

Verium also launched elastic chain functionality supported by the cutting-edge technology of zkSync. Leveraging zkSync's advanced ZK Rollup framework, Verium brings forth a continuously expanding ZK chain network, enabling horizontal scalability and allowing enthusiasts, developers, and enterprises to deploy their own custom chains, including Layer 3 (L3) solutions. This integration provides a scalable, secure, and cost-effective environment, ideal for blockchain-based games and decentralized application (dApps) development.

With zkSync's Elastic Chains technology, Verium enables users to build custom, self-sovereign ZK Rollup and L3 solutions to meet specific use cases (such as gaming or Decentralized Finance) This allows these chains to remain interoperable within the Verium ecosystem, enabling Cross-Chain Interaction, shared Liquidity, and a seamless user experience. By fully embracing zkSync's advanced architecture, Verium provides a flexible, scalable, and future-oriented blockchain environment that can evolve as demand rises.

The launch of Verium brings new opportunities for developers who want to build and deploy blockchain-based games. Stratis aims to foster a thriving ecosystem that enables developers to fully leverage the advantages of blockchain technology to create games with true ownership of digital assets, decentralized economy, and innovative game mechanisms.

Why does Verium need zkSync Era?

zkSync Era is a leading zero-knowledge (zk) Rollup solution that represents a significant leap forward for Ethereum and other blockchain networks in terms of scalability, security, and user experience. The core advantages of zkSync Era perfectly align with Stratis' vision, which is to create a seamless and secure environment for decentralized applications, especially in the blockchain gaming field. Here are the main benefits that zkSync Era brings to Verium:

Faster transaction finality

zkSync Era's zero-knowledge Rollup technology enables near-instant transaction finality. This fast confirmation process is crucial for game applications where speed and user experience are paramount. Players need quick action feedback, and developers require a reliable and fast network to build immersive experiences. Verium and its GPU Prover ensure lightning-fast transaction confirmation, reducing latency and enhancing the overall gaming experience.

Enhancing Security through Zero-Knowledge Proof

Security is the top priority for any blockchain solution, and zkSync Era provides a robust framework to ensure transaction integrity and anti-fraud. By using Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP), zkSync Era can ensure transaction verification on Verium in a trustless manner, which means the network can verify the validity of transactions without re-executing them. This mechanism enables high throughput without compromising network security or decentralization.

Although zkSync Era does not provide transaction privacy, its encryption technology ensures that all transactions are secure and free from Double Spending and other fraudulent activities. This high level of security is particularly beneficial for games involving digital assets and microtransactions, where user trust and asset integrity are crucial.

Seamless User Experience

zkSync Era focuses on user experience, which is another reason why Stratis chooses to integrate it into Verium. Features such as native account abstraction, seamless onboarding for non-crypto-native users, and Wallet support contribute to a frictionless user experience. With these features, Stratis aims to lower the entry barrier for gamers and game developers, ensuring they can easily interact with blockchain technology without having to navigate complex interfaces or processes.

Scalable Game Deployment

The fast verification capability provided by GPU Prover used by Stratis, combined with the scalability of zkSync Era, makes Verium an ideal environment for deploying games that require high throughput and low latency. Game developers can now build and expand their applications without worrying about network congestion or high Money Laundering, and thus may bring more innovative and feature-rich games into the blockchain field.
