Introduction

We are thrilled to announce that Chainbase has integrated with zkSync Era, a groundbreaking Layer 2 scaling solution that uses ZK rollups to offer scalable and low-cost transactions on Ethereum. This integration allows developers to build decentralized applications with the same level of security as Ethereum but at a fraction of the cost.

Chainbase ↔ zkSync

Chainbase is committed to providing the best infrastructure for blockchain developers, and our integration with zkSync Era is a testament to that commitment. With zkSync's Layer 2 gas fees depending on the current Ethereum gas fees for publishing and verification, developers can now build more cost-effective applications.

Chainbase's PM Ryan said:

“Fellow Developers, We are honored to be partner with zkSync. It is a scaling and privacy solution for Ethereum, uses the ZK Rollup architecture to provide a low gas fee solution for ETH and ERC20 token transactions on the Ethereum. This partnership means that Chainbase will provide a more efficient and private transaction experience for everyone. Let's work together to create more and more amazing Apps on zkSync with Chainbase!”

Integration Highlights

• Native Support for Ethereum Wallets: No need to register a separate private key; zkSync supports existing Ethereum wallets and the general Account Abstraction. Chainbase will be supporting zkSync with wallet-specific datasets and providing basic and advanced toolset (Bundler APIs, User operations data) for AA development in and beyond the ecosystem.
• Solidity and Vyper Support: Smart contracts can be written in Solidity or Vyper, allowing for easy migration of existing projects. Chainbase, as one of the leading developer tools live on zkSync mainnet and testnet, is continually enabling smart contract developers (no matter written in Solidity or Vyper) to build anything they want, without backend hassles.
• Web3 API Compatibility: zkSync's Web3 API is fully compatible with Ethereum, enabling seamless integration with existing developer tools, which greatly ease the friction for deployment and migration. Stay tuned for Chainbase’s pre-packaged scenario-oriented Web3 API on zkSync as well!
• Composable datasets: The most highlighted design in this integration. In Chainbase’s all-in-one developer-friendly console, builders can leverage the full compatibility of zkSync data (raw and abstract data, dapp data is coming soon) and apply them into coolest user scenarios, including DeFi, AA, gaming, and more.

Future Collaborations

Chainbase will continue to provide zkSync node and data support for both existing and new teams in the ecosystem. We are also planning to introduce more features, documentation, tutorials, and workshops that will make the developer experience even more seamless. Stay tuned!

About zkSync

zkSync Era is a ZK rollup that provides scalable and low-cost transactions on Ethereum. It performs computation off-chain and stores most data off-chain as well. However, all transactions are proven on the Ethereum mainchain, ensuring the same level of security. zkSync supports existing Ethereum wallets out of the box and is designed to transition to a decentralized system shortly.

About Chainbase

Chainbase is an open Web3 data infrastructure for accessing, organizing, and analyzing on-chain data at scale. It helps people to better utilize on-chain data by combining rich datasets with open computing technologies in one data platform. Chainbase’s ultimate goal is to increase data freedom in the crypto.

More than 5,000 developers actively interact with our platform and over 200Mn data requests per day as their data backend and integrate chainbase into their main workflow.  Additionally, we are working with ~10 top-tier public chains as first-tier validators and managing over US $500Mn tokens non-custodially as a validator provider.
