zkLink: Reconstructing the underlying logic of cross-chain transactions, the AI-driven future has arrived

Cross-chain is no longer a novelty. LayerZero, Wormhole, Axelar… including the recently launched Binance Alpha's $OBT

A series of "bridges" attempt to stitch together the fragmentation of liquidity, but the reality is always stuck, slow, expensive, and difficult. A fancy UI cannot cover up the fundamental flaws beneath.

zkLink's new roadmap brings a whole new possibility — not to build another bridge, but to reconstruct the underlying logic of the entire cross-chain transaction network.

Starting from "zero protocol fees, permissionless, peer-to-peer", zkLink aims to create a cross-chain transaction infrastructure driven by AI agents:

🔸 Transactions, automated negotiations, asset allocation, and collaboration, all efficiently executed by AI agents.

🔸 The goal? To make the interaction between chains as smooth as if they were on the same chain, truly achieving "multi-chain as one chain".

The roadmap is clear, and the execution is pragmatic:

🔸 2025: Cross-chain protocol PoC completed, protocol layer open-sourced.

🔸 Starting in 2026: Alpha/Beta testing launched, accelerating the development of the developer ecosystem.

This is not a PPT fantasy, but a system-level project being built while laying the groundwork.

Capital has quietly placed its bets: leading institutions like Coinbase Ventures, OKX Ventures, https://t.co/ZyKocLJdLS, Republic Crypto have all entered the field. The platform token $ZKL has also been listed on exchanges such as Bybit, https://t.co/wlUpay1PX3, Bitget, Hashkey Global, and Coinone, gradually solidifying the liquidity foundation.

zkLink's ambition goes beyond cross-chain protocols. It positions itself as a "cross-chain operating system", with an AI architecture at its core, linking modules such as spot, contracts, Launchpad, SuperApp, to create a complete DeFi closed loop.

No airdrop speculation, no narrative bubbles, zkLink chooses to prioritize products and fundamentals. In this world where "multi-chain is like multiple countries", whoever can make the collaboration between chains as smooth as "local operations" may define the future rhythm of DeFi.

zkLink may not be the ultimate solution, but the combination of AI + cross-chain has already swung in the right direction.
