RISC Zero Launches Kailua zkEVM for fast finality: Get it on Conduit Marketplace
Conduit rollups have a new option for ZK proofs with Kailua from RISC Zero! Kailua lets OP Stack rollups ditch the 7-day withdrawal waiting period and achieve 1-hour finality. Kailua is also uniquely cost-effective, as ZK proofs are only required in cases of disputes — in other words, rollups get the benefits of ZK at the costs of an optimistic approach. Integrate now on Conduit Marketplace.
Rollup Metrics from the Conduit ecosystem
As the biggest rollup platform in the Ethereum ecosystem, Conduit has a bird’s eye view of the latest rollup trends.
In this blog post, we break those trends down and look at what rollups powered by Conduit are using for key parts of their tech stack: Rollup framework, data availability, settlement layer, and more.
GURU Network launches on Conduit
