1inch Integrates ZKsync to Enhance Cross-Chain Swaps Efficiency

1inch Network has integrated with ZKsync, a layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum. This collaboration enhances cross-chain swaps, enabling faster and cheaper transactions for cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and digital collectibles.

Key Developments

  • Integration aims to improve transaction speed and reduce costs via zero-knowledge rollups (ZK-Rollups).
  • 1inch's existing relationship with ZKsync facilitated this integration.
  • Users can access faster transactions through the 1inch dApp and Wallet.
  • Cross-chain swap feature is in beta, having facilitated millions in trading volume.

ZKsync’s Goals

  • 1inch anticipates increased adoption and trading volumes from ZKsync integration.
  • Costs for swaps are shifted to resolvers, who stake 1INCH tokens for competitive rates.
  • ZKsync plans to eliminate gas fees and scale up to 10,000 transactions per second.

This development represents a significant step towards more efficient DeFi transactions across multiple networks.
