We’re thrilled to announce that Everstake, one of the world’s leading non-custodial staking providers, has joined zkVerify as a validator partner.

This collaboration combines zkVerify’s universal, ultra-fast verification layer with Everstake’s proven track record in institutional-grade staking infrastructure, reinforcing both networks’ commitment to security, decentralization, and scalability.

How the Partnership Elevates Both Networks

Fortifying zkVerify’s Consensus Layer

Everstake’s proven infrastructure, with 40,000+ active nodes and $7B in staked assets, adds depth and resilience to zkVerify’s Proof-of-Stake network.

Their experience ensures reliability at scale, strengthening the security and uptime guarantees that developers and users depend on.

Scaling Universal Proof Verification

zkVerify makes it possible to verify any zero-knowledge proof, from zkRollups and zkApps to zkBridges and AI systems, in milliseconds and at far lower cost than Layer 1 blockchains.

With Everstake securing the network, this verification infrastructure can serve a truly global audience with consistency and speed.

A Shared Commitment to Trust and Accessibility

Both zkVerify and Everstake are focused on expanding access to advanced cryptographic systems without sacrificing security.

Everstake’s community of over 1M delegators across 85+ networks brings immediate reach and credibility, accelerating zkVerify’s path to becoming the backbone of verifiable trust across Web3 and beyond.

What’s Next

This partnership is just the beginning. As zkVerify scales to handle billions of proofs across blockchains, AI, and data systems, Everstake’s validator support will help ensure the network grows in a secure and decentralized way.

Users and institutions alike can look forward to more robust staking opportunities, deeper integrations, and a stronger foundation for the next generation of verifiable applications.
