V3 Launches on Era Mainnet

Decentralized finance protocol Aave launched its V3 on Era Mainnet with transactions backed by ZKsync technology. In an August 21 release, the company highlighted utilities including liquidity and yield generation models. Through zero-knowledge technology, users can access both low-cost transactions and security via cryptographic validity proofs from Ethereum.

ZKsync will offer improved scalability in the DeFi space as the platform seeks wider adoption. In addition to the partnership, Chainlink will provide secure price feeds. Chainlink price feeds ensure that market data for DeFi protocols is both accessible and reliable. Johann Eid, Chainlink's Chief Business Officer, explained the impact of both Aave and ZKsync in the ecosystem, bringing value to the space.

Aave V3’s deployment on Era Mainnet brings together a foundational DeFi protocol and a pioneer that is pushing the zero-knowledge space forward, which is a major step forward for our industry, and Chainlink Price Feeds are playing a key role in ensuring that the market data powering the protocol is ultra-reliable and accessible.Johann Eid
