zkSync launches high-performance prover, Starknet considers independent L1 status
Matter Labs announced Airbender Prime, a prover that reportedly handled 99% of 7,200 consecutive Ethereum mainnet blocks in under 10 seconds each on a single NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPU. Separately, Starknet is actively considering becoming an independent layer-1 (L1) blockchain, targeting full quantum resistance by 2027. This comes as Ethereum aims for L1 quantum resistance across execution, consensus, and data by December 2029. Matter Labs is also focusing on regulated finance, with Deutsche Bundesbank testing its Prividium platform, while Aave's risk provider LlamaRisk recommended winding down V3 deployments on zkSync and other chains due to low quarterly protocol revenue.
