zkLink AVS protocol
Overview
zkLink AVS (Actively Validated Service) is an EigenLayer AVS that provides decentralized verification of zero-knowledge proofs for zkLink Nova, a ZK-rollup aggregator. It enables secure cross-chain asset transfers and swaps by leveraging restaked ETH and the EigenLayer security model. The service validates zk-SNARK proofs to ensure correctness of state transitions across multiple layer-2 networks.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, zkLink AVS connects to 1 tracked entity, most strongly to EigenLayer.
