zkSync Prover Meets Ethereum's Real-Time Performance Benchmark
Matter Labs announced that zkSync's Airbender Prime prover handled 99% of 7,200 consecutive Ethereum mainnet blocks in under 10 seconds each on a single NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell GPU. The announcement came after Starknet considered becoming an independent layer-1 (L1) blockchain, targeting quantum resistance in 2027. The Ethereum Foundation's target for L1 quantum resistance is December 2029.
