zkLink's new roadmap has gone viral, and to be honest, it's a bit stunning.
I originally thought it was just another cross-chain bridge project, but it turns out they directly launched an AI-driven cross-chain trading network, focusing on 'bidding farewell to bridging, AI agents handle everything'.
To put it simply:
In the past, when you operated across multiple chains, it felt like a global runner: opening positions on Arbitrum, exchanging coins on BNB, buying NFTs on zkSync, every time you crossed chains you had to bridge, which took a long time and incurred high gas fees.
What is zkLink's ambition? No bridges! The AI agent takes over directly.
You give a command, and the AI automatically finds the optimal path, negotiates prices, exchanges coins, signs, and pulls liquidity, all without you noticing. Where are the assets? Contract format? No need to worry, it's fast and hassle-free.
This system is called the P2P AI agent trading network, currently building the underlying protocol, PoC validation, and open-source plans, with global testing expected in 2026.
The capital lineup is very hardcore: Coinbase Ventures, OKX, Crypto.com, Republic, SIG have all invested.
The platform token $ZKL has been listed on Bybit, Gate, Bitget, and Hashkey Global, with initial liquidity taking shape.
zkLink is not a project that has been shouting 'interoperability' for ten years while still requiring you to manually switch chains, but rather aims to create a 'cross-chain operating system'. In the future, spot trading, contracts, Launchpad, and SuperApp will all run on this AI system.
They haven't done any airdrop gimmicks, and the rhythm is very steady: first, they will launch a task system, staking, and LP incentives, gradually improving the product loop.
In a market flooded with narratives, this slow and meticulous pace actually shows they truly want to get things done.
The real highlight: once the AI agent network is connected, that's when zkLink's value will explode.
