Say hello to Boojum 👋: zkSync Era’s new high-performance proof system for radical decentralization. Boojum is an upgrade that will transition zkSync Era to a STARK-powered proof system, providing world-class performance on consumer-grade hardware.

TL;DR 👇
Boojum is the name of our Rust-based cryptographic library, which we use to implement the upgraded version of the ZK circuits for zkSync Era and the ZK Stack.
The name Boojum was inspired by Lewis Carroll's poem "The Hunting of the Snark," where the Boojum represents the most fearsome kind of Snark.
We intentionally designed zkSync Era in a way that cryptographic upgrades can be made without a regenesis, meaning that the Boojum upgrade won’t cause any user disruptions.
Why Boojum❓
From day one, zkSync’s mission is to advance personal freedom for all — making digital self-ownership universally accessible by building a blockchain network that is trustless, secure, permissionless, affordable, easy to use, resilient and limitlessly scalable. Boojum plays an important role in advancing this mission by delivering:
1. World-class performance
zkSync Era’s current SNARK-based proof system is effective today, but it won’t scale to the volume that we envision for hyperchains. zkSync Era’s sequencer can already process over 100 TPS; Boojum orders of magnitude improvements to performance complements this well.
2. Reduced hardware requirements for decentralization
Our long-term goal is to enable user-powered, decentralized proof generation. Boojum represents a breakthrough in this direction — with the prover running on consumer-grade GPUs requiring only 16 GB GPU RAM.
Boojum’s Journey to Mainnet 🚴🏽♀️
Boojum is now live on Mainnet, generating and verifying ‘shadow proofs’ today with real production data so that we can carefully test the system ahead of fully migrating.
Today, we’re also open-sourcing the repo; if you’d like to take a look, you can find it here 👇

LIBERTAS OMNIBUS ∎
Ready. Steady. Mint.
LIBERTAS OMNIBUS is an experimental NFT project to explore new NFT standards, network superpowers, new protocol features, prototype collections with surprise creators, and just vibe out.
Building on learnings from last month’s NFT test mint, we’re launching a LIBERTAS OMNIBUS Open Mint for the remainder of the 179,365 early zkSync NFT community members.
Thank you to the community for your patience, support, and good vibes as we continue on this experimental journey together 🙏
Think you may be eligible? Follow the steps below.
Step 1: Confirm wallet eligibility
Head to https://t.co/1Jw5CBBdaj and follow the steps to confirm your wallet is eligible for this wave.
Eligible addresses include those who interacted with at least one of the top 100+ zkSync NFT collections between Mainnet launch and July 12. For additional details, visit zkSync’s Discord at https://t.co/6JWFOfQJov.
Step 2: Mint your NFT
Once you’ve confirmed eligibility and completed the necessary steps, you can mint your NFT!
Note: We’ve incorporated a first-in first-out queuing mechanism in case too many people rush to mint simultaneously. Minting will stay open for at least a few weeks, so there’s no need to rush.
Stay alert. https://t.co/1Jw5CBBdaj is the only source for these NFTs. Verify before engaging.
What’s coming up
Our collective mission is to advance personal freedom for all. LIBERTAS OMNIBUS is meant to be a fun way for the broader NFT community to join the ZK Revolution.
We’ll monitor the mint carefully and rely on your feedback to make the experience as smooth and rewarding as possible.
If you weren’t included in this wave, there will be many more opportunities to join the journey. Keep an eye out here for updates.

"[Zero-knowledge proofs] allow you to verify arbitrary amounts of computation very cheaply. The beauty of it: you can combine various zero-knowledge proofs recursively and then settle this on Ethereum as a global settlement layer. This enables us to scale blockchains––basically indefinitely."
