@citrea_xyz
: ZK rollup on Bitcoin
- Like any zk rollup, Citrea batches transactions and generate a zk proof.
- The proof is inscribed onto Bitcoin and verified optimistically via BitVM.
- Citrea also leverages Light Nodes,

With zkRust, TEE attestations and more to come,
@alignedlayer
will become the go-to infrastructure for everything zk, and unlock massive potential & novel use cases for trustless & verifiable compute. Building with zk will be as easy as building in Web2 with AWS.
Some thoughts after ETH CC:
- Many zk projects are integrating both ZKPs and TEEs. To give them the best experience possible, we have decided to integrate TEE attestations on

It’s true that it’s still being built out. That’s why I said tech is only one aspect. Applications and users matter equally, which means projects with shorter time to market can have an advantage.

Both truth-seeking and democratic, built around open public participation rather than pre-selected elites.
