zkSync Entry price: $0.1744(ZK/USDT) (June 30, 2024) (#zkSync #Spot)
Layer Zero has started to grow, and ZK is also showing growth. This formation resembles what happened with Notcoin.
zkSync (ZK) — zkSync is a Layer-2 protocol that scales Ethereum with cutting-edge ZK tech. Our mission is not only to merely increase Ethereum's throughput, but to fully preserve its foundational values – freedom, self-sovereignty, decentralization – at scale.

Chinese Tesla Rival Zeekr Soars 35% On NYSE Debut, Hits $6.8B Shares of ZEEKR Intelligent Technology Holding Limited ( NYSE:ZK ), a global electric mobility technology brand of Chinese automaker Geely Automobile Holding, rose by nearly 35% on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday, following its initial public offering (IPO). The company offered 21 million American Depositary Shares (ADS) at $21 per share. ZEEKR's stock closed at $28.26, giving it a fully diluted valuation of $6.8 billion. This successful debut comes at a time when other US EV makers, such as Tesla and Rivian, have seen a decline in their stock prices.
Geely Holding's Chief Executive, Daniel Li, expressed optimism about ZEEKR's future prospects, stating that there are significant opportunities in the global new energy vehicle market and that ZEEKR is positioned as a premium electric mobility brand that supports Geely's electric transformation. Geely Holding also owns Volvo Cars and Lotus Cars.
ZEEKR ( NYSE:ZK ) began delivering vehicles in October 2021 and has delivered more than 240,000 vehicles to date. The company plans to expand its market to Europe, the Middle East, and other Asian markets. In 2023, the company reported a total revenue of 51.67 billion yuan ($7.15 billion), but also recorded a net loss of 8.26 billion yuan.
Overall, ZEEKR's successful debut on the New York Stock Exchange signals promising growth prospects for the company and highlights the growth potential of the global electric mobility market.
Wormhole Set to Use AMD Chips for Scaling 'Light Client' ProofsInteroperability platform Wormhole will leverage Advanced Micro Devices' ( NASDAQ:AMD ) enterprise-grade FPGA hardware accelerator chips for scaling cross-chain communication. The project will make use of AMD’s Alveo U55C and U250 adaptable accelerator cards to enhance capacity for secure cross-chain messages using zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs).
As a bridge solution connecting over 30 blockchains, Wormhole has embraced the integration of zero-knowledge proofs into the platform. It is developing “light client” implementations for secure transfers across various chains, using ZKPs. The goal is to create secure “corridors” between blockchains for messaging.
Moreover, this necessitates substantial computing power for the generation and verification of proofs across networks. That’s where the Advanced Micro Devices ( NASDAQ:AMD ) chips come into the picture. These FPGA chips are widely used for compute-heavy tasks like training machine learning models. Wormhole is optimizing its platform for AMD chips.
"Advanced Micro Devices ( NASDAQ:AMD ) plays a critical role in this effort by providing enterprise-grade FPGA and GPU hardware and lending deep hardware expertise to Wormhole ZK engineers to ensure efficiency and speed,” said Dan Reecer, co-founder and chief operating officer at Wormhole Foundation.
Advanced Micro Devices ( NASDAQ:AMD ) contribution to the project supersedes hardware provision — it will also share its expertise in hardware acceleration to improve the scalability of applications developed within the Wormhole ecosystem.
Zero Knowledge-Based Light Clients
In the coming months, organizations contributing to Wormhole will start rolling out mainnet deployments of various zero-knowledge (ZK) light clients. Just last week, Wormhole revealed a collaboration with Succinct Labs, to enhance the development and performance of an Ethereum-based ZK light client.
Wormhole’s plan is to create secure communication channels across major blockchains, including Ethereum, Near, Solana, Aptos, Sui, and Cosmos. Scaling concerning proof generation and verification in the light clients will be facilitated through Advanced Micro Devices ( NASDAQ:AMD ).
Wormhole’s core contributors emphasize the critical importance of its product security. This stance stems from an incident in February 2022, when a security breach facilitated by a signature verification flaw in the Wormhole network on Solana led to the theft of over $320 million in $ETH. Fortunately, the compromised funds were later recovered.
According to the contributors, ZK-based light clients will significantly contribute to improving the project’s security and decentralization.
ETH TO BREAK THE $2K MARK BEFORE RETRACEMENT!Good day my fellow crypto traders, HODlers, speculators and critics! Before I get into the technical side of things I would like to mention to those who are not aware of the ZKSync release which is a huge milestone in the ZK-rollup space. In laymen's terms ZKSync is an update that offers low gas and fast transactions, without compromising on security. The ZKSync era is also here to make the Ethereum network more decentralized, through making it possible for retail traders to operate nodes on the network as the GPU requirements have dropped dramatically to 8GB. This will help prevent large institutions running nodes to centralize the the network and instead give everyone the ability to run their nodes with less processing power.
Now that, that is out the way here is my explanation for my prediction on the market structure of ETH in both the short and long term.
Short term bullish flag formation (yellow): We are currently channeling a bullish flag fomration within a bearish flag formation. To focus on the bullish flag formation, the price prediction before a retracement is due, is roughly $2400, however, this will not happen over night per say as we have a few levels of resistance we have to cross before this is possible, first one being the $2k and roughly $2.1 marks.
Elliot wave indicator 1-5: In order to be more confident in the potential retracement out of the bearish flag formation to the predicted levels of $1.4k, the Elliot wave formation must be completed which would mean the price reaching $2.4k, or the price would bounce off the $2.1k mark resulting in a double top before the price begins to move down in the days/weeks to come. These low prices will most probably only be found nearing the end of the year, into early 2024, before the bull market begins in full swing.
Bearish flag formation (white): This price prediction in the longer term is highly possible due to the fact that a constant higher high and full swing bull market structure is a bit premature at this time, regardless of the narrative being shifted into a bullish point of view. It would not be healthy if the market continues rapidly to the up side and would most definitely result in an over inflated price, which in return would result in a major retracement offsetting the strengthening of much needed support and resistance levels for future price action.

ZK InternationalZK International manufactures pipes, tools and devices for water.
Since 2018, ZK International has been working on a research project to create blockchain systems, which they call xSigma.
They are now composing the Blockchain system to focus on the supply chain and the Internet of Things.
There are practically no competitors in the blockchain market, industrial systems, and none of them is public. ZKIN has an existing business that makes it feasible to implement technologies such as blockchain.
It is important to note that they are not raising money or tokens - they are spending their profits to create technology.
On November 23, shares jumped from $ 1.72 to $ 3.05 per share on news that the company plans to fund its subsidiary xSigma to focus on the decentralized financial space, with a focus on decentralized exchanges, stablecoins and lending protocols. "Funded research lab xSigma is now actively working on its ecosystem of products, starting with the DeFi protocol."
If we look at the annual reports, the company's revenue is growing from year to year, even in spite of the pandemic for 2020, an increase of 15% is expected compared to 2019.
This is a strong company with real customers that just didn't get the attention it deserves. If the company continues to use the markening move and continues to publicly promote its blockchain technology, then the company's shares will grow several times.
I suppose at the moment we should take a closer look at two points of entry into the long.
