The AggLayer, built by Polygon Labs, is a scaling solution for cross-chain shared state and liquidity. With this solution, any ZK-enabled L2 or L1 chain can seamlessly connect for quick trust-minimized interoperability—without sacrificing sovereignty. 📓

Union2 years ago

The Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK) is an: ▪ Open-source ▪ Modular ▪ Toolkit — designed to support a range of custom blockchain architectures. The CDK makes it easy for developers to launch new L2 chains with Polygon zkEVM technology on Ethereum.

This unification of the Polygon and @Cosmos ecosystems will unlock a seamless experience for bridging between a growing number of blockchains connected to the AggLayer and any IBC-enabled chain. 📖 Read more:

QuickSwap is now live on X Layer Mainnet ⚡️ The birth of a new Citadel on the dragon DEX, expanding the Polygon CDK family. Swap and LP on X Layer (farms coming soon) via QuickSwap to experience DeFi on the network at its very best. X Layer is ZK-powered Layer 2 network designed to connect the OKX and Ethereum communities, built using the Polygon CDK tech stack. It's designed to have seamless interoperability with other Layer 2 chains. Now plugged into the AggLayer, OKX’s massive community of 50+ million users is fully interoperable with all interconnected chains and can now tap into its unified liquidity. The network also uses zk-SNARK to make transactions significantly cheaper and far more compact. X Layer brings other benefits to users, such as near-instant finality, unified liquidity, robust security, high scalability... the list goes on. With this mainnet deployment and more to come, QuickSwap is leading the charge to ignite activity and growth on X Layer at rapid speeds. Going full throttle to further unite the Polygon | POL and OKX communities. This is only the beginning of a bright future for QuickSwap, X Layer, and the broader Polygon and Ethereum ecosystems. Get ready to rumble.

NYC Sessions EP. 4: Is AggLayer The Solution To The Modular Fragmentation Problem? In the 4th episode of our NYC chain abstraction focused content marathon, & Austin King sat down with davidev.eth 💜 of Polygon | POL to discuss the evolution of Polygon's product line and the ever-growing importance of interoperability solutions such as the AggLayer. AggLayer offers a shared bridge model that enables smooth cross-chain communication while supporting multiple rollup stacks and consensus mechanisms via "pessimistic proofs" which have been in development for some time. But, is this the solution the Ethereum ecosystem looking for? Is AggLayer competitive or collaborative with Superchain? When will we expect to see AggLayer in prod? These, and many more, answered in the full interview with David Silverman. Watch or listen to today's spicy, yet insightful interview detailing where AggLayer fits in the modular thesis: 02:20 Is David a crypto OG? 03:43 Polygon's Evolution and the AggLayer 14:36 AggLayer Can't Rug You 18:31 What Users Really Want 23:44 Understanding the AggLayer's Security Guarantees 30:51 The Business Model of AggLayer 37:34 Road To Mainnet

Something Huge Happened on Polygon... In case you missed it, a major exploit hit Polymarket on Polygon (Polygon | POL). An attacker drained more than $660,000 from the smart contract. They made many small transfers of 5K MATIC each time. On-chain investigator ZachXBT first raised the alarm, with community reports confirming losses between $520K and $660K so far. Polymarket is one of the biggest decentralized prediction markets.

🎙️1/ I enjoyed speaking with 0xkaiserkarel.union from Union where we discussed the current state of blockchain infrastructure and the pain developers go through to build cross-chain apps and how Union aims to solve those exact problems. Enjoy. Summary Karel Kubat, CEO of Union, lays out a bold vision for a decentralized coordination layer that can unlock true interoperability in crypto. He breaks down why bridging is still broken, why ZK is more than hype, and why Bitcoin needs to be more than digital gold. From security risks to UX gaps to regulatory pressure, this conversation covers the hard problems and how Union is solving them. Takeaways – Union is building a decentralized coordination layer to connect ecosystems without sacrificing sovereignty – Interoperability is not a feature, it’s the future, especially for assets like Bitcoin – ZK tech offers powerful efficiency and trust guarantees for cross-chain operations – Union’s mainnet beta is focused on bootstrapping use cases in the Bitcoin ecosystem – Bitcoin in DeFi isn’t optional, it’s the next unlock for serious liquidity – Real-world asset (RWA) integration is a priority for Union’s long-term roadmap – Bridge security remains a major attack surface and demands a new approach – UX in cross-chain bridging is still painful, Union wants to fix that – Go-to-market strategy targets underserved, long-tail assets and app developers – Regulatory shifts will shape product and protocol design going forward Chapters (00:00) Introduction to Union and Its Vision (02:43) The Importance of Interoperability in Blockchain (05:30) Union’s Unique Approach to ZK Technology (08:15) Building Bridges: Union’s Role in the Bitcoin Ecosystem (10:58) Unlocking Bitcoin’s Potential in DeFi (13:40) Real-World Asset Integration and Future Plans (16:33) Security and Trust in Blockchain Bridges (19:24) User Experience and the Future of Bridging (22:07) Union’s Go-to-Market Strategy and Community Engagement (24:42) The Role of Regulation in Union’s Future (27:27) Conclusion and Future Outlook (33:18) The role of Super Apps like Infinex that Abstracts Bridging and other painful processes
