Earlier this month, the @CNzksync community went from URL to IRL to learn how zkSync scales Ethereum.

Where should we go next? 👀

Only the real homies main Zeek 🎮

We released Zeek into the public domain for zkSync communities to get creative and make Zeek their own. Shoutout to @tevaera for being one of the first to make it happen.

Who’s next 👀

Here's a quick introduction to @MadaraStarknet , the open-source Starknet sequencer

Madara is an open-source Starknet sequencer built using Substrate. As a sequencer, Madara plays a crucial role in the architecture of Starknet by processing transactions and generating blocks.

On Starknet, the sequencer takes transactions from users and executes them on the Layer 2 network using the CAIRO virtual machine. It creates blocks that are later proven valid by the prover component.

Madara aims to mimic the behavior of the public Starknet mainnet. This means devs can use Madara to run Starknet smart contracts just as if they were deployed on the live network. Madara can also be used to build custom Starknet Appchains that settle on Ethereum.

An Appchain powered by Madara would enable running Starknet smart contracts on a proprietary network separate from the main public network. So Madara could potentially be used to implement a Layer 2 or even Layer 3 solution anchored to Ethereum.

One of the most exciting aspects of Madara is that it is an open-source, community-driven project. With over 70 contributors from diverse backgrounds and companies, Madara exemplifies the collaborative spirit of crypto development.

By building an open-source sequencer for Starknet, the Madara contributor community is advancing the decentralization and accessibility of Validity Rollup (aka ZK Rollup) technology. Devs worldwide can benefit from and build on top of this shared public good.

Madara shows off the potential for open-source coordination in crypto. Its community of contributors is rapidly growing, making it an important component of Ethereum's scaling roadmap.

The Madara no Shinobi seek skilled shinobi to join the crusade.

For the glory of decentralization! For freedom! For Madara!!! 🔥💥🎌

@PudgyPenguins is going mainstream with Pudgy Toys—now available at 2,000 @Walmart stores across the US. Each Pudgy Toy is a gateway into Pudgy World, an open-world digital player experience powered by zkSync Era.

∎ A new avenue for mass adoption ∎
Bridging the gap between the digital and physical is key to Web3’s mass adoption. By harnessing blockchain tech to build immersive, interactive experiences, brands can bring the power of Web3 to a billion users in a way that is easy to onboard, fun, and accessible.

zkSync Era and Ethereum were chosen as Pudgy World’s foundational technology to enable an immersive user experience, lightning-fast speeds, and affordability while prioritizing the foundational values of Web3 including freedom, self-sovereignty, and decentralization.

∎ Blending physical and digital ∎
Each Pudgy Toy comes with a unique birth certificate containing a scannable QR code that grants access to Pudgy World. Once inside Pudgy World, users can customize their unique Forever Pudgy Penguin characters and redeem traits, which are all NFTs stored in users’ wallets.

∎ Taking web3 ownership mainstream ∎
Pudgy Toys is the first mass-market NFT intellectual property product licensed directly from its community. All Pudgy Penguin toys are linked to existing NFT characters, and holders of those characters will receive licensing royalties for every toy sold at Walmart in perpetuity. This creates a major opportunity for NFT holders to have their IP go mainstream and also profit from the process.

∎ Supporting the larger NFT ecosystem ∎
The Pudgy Toy designs sold at Walmart have incorporated IP from popular NFT collections such as @DeGodsNFT, @MeebitsNFTs, @coolcats, @y00tsNFT, and others, allowing existing NFT holders to receive licensing royalties for each corresponding toy at Walmart.

By creating a pathway between analog and digital, Pudgy Penguins is enabling mainstream consumers to experience Web3 without the complicated jargon and intimidating onboarding that can hinder ecosystem growth—all while providing existing NFT holders with long-term value.
