BitDAO and Matter Labs Launch $200M Backed zkDAO Project

The project was announced after a poll was issued by Matter Labs on the BitDAO treasury. Users were asked if they would be interested in a decentralized autonomous organization. The poll reached almost $200M votes in favor of the new DAO.

zkDAO’s capital will be used to create a layer-2 framework on the Ethereum network. This will allow the network to make faster transactions on the blockchain, alongside a zero-knowledge proof protocol which will allow users to verify their identities without unveiling crucial personal information.

Head of Mirana Ventures Jonathan Allen, who also backed the BitDAO project, stated:

 “This proposal will not only benefit the collective Ethereum scaling effort but will provide tremendous value to the BitDAO ecosystem, which continues to act as a leading force across industries as it creates entirely new purpose-built DAOs that also need to scale effectively on-chain.”

zkSync will be the crucial part of the new ecosystem, ensuring better scalability which will result in less transaction fees.
