zkSync Era, as a Layer 2 protocol and ZK-rollup, offers a groundbreaking solution that aggregates multiple transactions into a compressed data structure, verifiable on-chain. This innovative approach allows for significantly higher transaction throughput compared to traditional Layer 1 (L1) solutions.
As a result, Storj's adoption of zkSync Era will drive down costs, decrease confirmation times, and enhance the scalability and efficiency of decentralized systems, positioning Storj as the frontrunner in the field of decentralized infrastructure technologies.
CEO of Storj, Ben Golub, expressed his enthusiasm for the strong adoption of zkSync within the Storj community, emphasizing their commitment to supporting the zkSync Era developer ecosystem with open-source tools.
"Zero-knowledge rollups for lower gas payments mean that Storj can provide users & our community of nodes with an optimal transaction experience while continuing to lead as a trailblazer in the field of decentralized infrastructure technologies."

To showcase the capabilities of zkSync Era to the wider Ethereum community, Storj will develop and maintain two additional open-source libraries: Crypto-Batch-Payment and Storjscan. The focus will be on creating a seamless onboarding experience for Storj's decentralized cloud storage customers and nodes onto the zkSync Era network.
Moreover, this collaboration will facilitate EVM-compatible composability for decentralized storage payments, granting customers enhanced flexibility and customization options.
Matter Labs' Head of Business Development, Marco Cora, expressed his excitement about projects like Storj improving overall network scalability for decentralized applications by integrating with zkSync Era.
"The potential of this collaboration in bringing fast, secure & affordable decentralized storage to a broader audience worldwide."
