Overview
ZKsync provides a framework for launching customizable EVM-compatible blockchains, including both public chains and privacy-focused private chains for institutions such as banks. Its products include ZK Stack for building enterprise-grade blockchains, Prividium for compliant private chain deployments, and ZKsync Connect for interoperability between public and private systems. Financial institutions use it to issue tokenized deposits and real-world assets, run private capital markets, and settle cross-border payments, replacing traditional banking integrations and third-party intermediaries.
