🚀 What Is Hyperchain?

ZKSync has just activated Hyperchain, its long-anticipated modular Layer 2 infrastructure built on zero-knowledge rollups. Hyperchain represents the next evolution of Ethereum scalability—allowing developers to launch their own secure and customizable rollup chains using ZKStack, an open-source modular framework developed by Matter Labs.

🧠 Why It Matters

Hyperchain isn't just another Layer 2. It introduces:

• 🔗 Interoperable Rollups: Each Hyperchain can communicate with others in a trustless environment.

• 💸 Near-zero Gas Fees: ZKRollup compression and batch validation slashes transaction costs.

• ⚡ Fast Finality: Transactions are confirmed in seconds, with Ethereum-level security.

🧩 ZKStack – Powering the Modular Rollup Revolution

Hyperchain is powered by ZKStack, a toolkit for developers to build their own sovereign rollups. Think of it as WordPress for blockchains—flexible, modular, and open-source.

Core Features Include:

• Custom token bridges

• On-chain data availability options

• Full EVM compatibility

• Built-in zkSync account abstraction (hello gasless transactions!)

🧩 Real Projects Already Going Live

Some major Ethereum-based players have already begun migrating to Hyperchain:

• Argent – Launching a native Hyperchain to power its smart wallet ecosystem

• 1inch Network – Integrating liquidity tools directly onto zkSync’s stack

• Gitcoin – Exploring zkSync rollups for funding public goods

And more protocols are building—especially those priced out by Ethereum mainnet gas fees.

💬 What the Community Is Saying

“Hyperchain feels like the L2 Ethereum was always meant to have.”
— @vitalikchain on X

“Deploying our own chain on zkSync has cut costs by 98% without losing security. That’s huge.”
— Dev Lead, Argent Wallet

🧠 Developer Takeaway

If you're a dev looking to:

• Avoid high mainnet gas

• Launch fast and secure smart contracts

• Build your own L2 for your dApp or ecosystem

…ZKStack and Hyperchain are open for deployment now.
