Ethereum Layer 2 Optimism is partnering with Succinct as its first zero-knowledge (ZK) proving provider, in order to provide instant and real-time withdrawals from the L2, according to an announcement shared exclusively with The Defiant.
The move makes Succinct Optimism’s first official ZK partner, and by leveraging Succinct’s proof system, users can off-ramp capital from Optimism to any other chain in a timely fashion, as opposed to the bridge’s traditional, multi-day wait time.
By accelerating the bridge time from Optimism, large on-chain operators such as market makers or treasuries, can move capital quickly without having to rely on a third party bridging solution.
