1inch Network Integrates ZKsync for Faster, Fee-Free Ethereum Transactions
The 1inch Network has officially integrated ZKsync, a cutting-edge Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum, promising faster and more cost-efficient transactions. This move is expected to revolutionize blockchain interoperability, enhancing both transaction speed and affordability across multiple networks.
Why This Integration Matters: Speed, Cost, and Accessibility
By adopting ZKsync’s zero-knowledge rollup technology, 1inch Network aims to provide users with seamless, bridge-less transactions that don’t compromise security. A major benefit? Zero transaction fees for users.
“We anticipate an increase in transaction volume due to trust-based, bridge-less transactions on ZKsync Era.” – Sergej Kunz, Co-Founder of 1inch
Instead of users paying gas fees, these costs are covered by resolvers—network participants who stake 1INCH tokens in exchange for incentives. This fee-free model is designed to make DeFi transactions more accessible and cost-effective.
The Future of Blockchain: What’s Next for ZKsync?
ZKsync’s long-term vision is to process up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) while maintaining the robust security of Ethereum’s mainnet. Future upgrades could even eliminate transaction fees entirely, making blockchain technology more scalable and user-friendly.
Key Benefits of the Integration:
✅ Faster and cheaper transactions across multiple networks
✅ 1inch’s “Fusion+” technology continues driving high transaction volumes
✅ No gas fees for users—costs are covered by staked 1INCH tokens
✅ ZKsync’s goal: 10,000 TPS while maintaining Ethereum security
✅ Growing adoption, including UBS exploring ZKsync for financial assets
Traditional Finance Meets Blockchain Innovation
This integration isn’t just a win for DeFi users. Swiss banking giant UBS is currently testing ZKsync technology for a gold-backed financial product, signaling a growing interest in blockchain from mainstream financial institutions.
As Ethereum’s scalability challenges persist, 1inch and ZKsync are setting a new standard for efficiency and affordability in digital finance. Could this be the turning point for mainstream DeFi adoption? All signs point to yes.
