Polygon Labs and NEAR Foundation Collaborate to Build zkWasm Prover

• Polygon Labs and Near Foundation have partnered to build a zkWasm L2 prover.
• The collaboration will position the ZK solution at the forefront of the Web 3.0 virtual realm.
• The zkWASM prover is presently under “active development” and is poised to launch in 2024.

Polygon Labs and Near Foundation have recently announced their partnership to build a zero-knowledge prover for WASM (zkWASM) blockchains during the NEARCON in Lisbon. This integration will enable any WebAssembly chain to prove itself in the Ethereum ecosystem while benefiting from the security features of Layer 2.

In a recent post on X (formerly known as Twitter), Polygon Co-Founder Sandeep Nailwal emphasized the significance of this collaboration.

This is an unprecedented move!

What is it?@0xpolygonlabs and @NEARfoundation are going to build a zkWASM Prover which will allow any WASM chain to prove on Ethereum and have Ethereum Layer2 security
