About ZKsync

ZKsync (ZK) is the governance and utility token of ZKsync Era, a ZK-Rollup (Zero-Knowledge Rollup) scaling solution for Ethereum developed by Matter Labs. ZKsync Era was the first EVM-compatible ZK-Rollup to go live on mainnet in 2023. It offers Ethereum-level security with significantly lower fees by batching transactions and submitting validity proofs to L1. ZKsync features native account abstraction (every account is a smart contract by default) and the Elastic Chain scalability concept.

How to Swap ZK

Exchanging ZKsync (ZK) on SyntheticSwap is straightforward and requires no registration or identity verification. ZK is an ERC-20 token built on Ethereum, so you can use MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, or any other Ethereum-compatible wallet to send and receive it. Select ZK in the SyntheticSwap interface, choose your destination coin, enter a receiving address, and confirm the rate. Your swap processes automatically — the destination token arrives in your wallet once the Ethereum transaction is confirmed.

How to Store ZK

ZK is stored in MetaMask (with ZKsync Era network added), Argent (native ZKsync support), or hardware wallets supporting ZKsync. ZK exists natively on ZKsync Era network.
