Lagrange: The Zero-Knowledge Interoperability Layer for Modular Blockchains

Lagrange is a cryptographic infrastructure protocol based on zero-knowledge proofs (ZK), designed to address cross-chain interoperability and verifiable computing issues in the modular blockchain ecosystem. Its core innovations include:

ZK Co-Processor Architecture: Combining a decentralized prover network with a highly parallel zkVM, it supports cross-chain data queries and historical state verification, achieving low-latency and provably correct computations.

Multi-Chain Compatibility: Compatible with mainstream frameworks like Ethereum, Celestia, and OP Stack, providing secure interoperability for DeFi, restaking validation (such as EigenLayer), and GameFi.

Token Economic Model: The native token LA (total supply of 1 billion) is used to pay for proof fees, node staking, and governance. Distribution focuses on the community (34.78%) and airdrops (10%), but a fixed 4% annual inflation rate may trigger selling pressure.

Funding and Progress: Raised $17.2 million in funding (led by Founders Fund), with the testnet processing over 400,000 proofs, facing risks of mainnet delays and competition pressure from rivals (such as Polygon zkEVM).

Prospects and Challenges: The technology's implementation depends on ecosystem adoption (currently only testnet collaborations), high valuation ($1 billion FDV) requires scalable revenue support, and whether it can become the “Multi-Chain ZK Engine” depends on cross-chain security and proof efficiency optimization. #lagrange $LA @Lagrange Official
