Ethereum layer-2 network ZKsync has unveiled its 2026 roadmap and is focusing on applying blockchain to the real economy for financial institutions, The Block reported on Jan. 13.
Matter Labs co-founder and CEO Alex Gluchowski announced ZKsync's 2026 strategy on social media platform X. He set out four tasks: built-in privacy, deterministic control, verifiable risk management and native connections to global markets.
"We chose a design that takes real-economy constraints into account," he said. "We will build trust with an incorruptible financial infrastructure based on cryptography, not people or intermediaries."
ZKsync's core 2026 strategy is to expand Prividium, a privacy-focused blockchain platform, The Block reported.
Prividium is designed so companies such as banks and asset managers can integrate privacy directly. "Prividium will strengthen privacy across areas including access management, transaction approvals, reporting, audits and integration with existing financial and operational software," Gluchowski said.
