BOB announces integration with RISC Zero's Kailua architecture, becoming the first Rollup project to use ZK proofs as fraud proofs
On July 25, BOB (Build on Bitcoin) announced a partnership with zero-knowledge proof infrastructure RISCZero, becoming the first Rollup project in the industry to use zero-knowledge proofs as fraud proofs through the integration of the hybrid architecture framework Kailua launched by RISC Zero. This will significantly save time and costs for existing setups, allowing withdrawal times to be reduced from the usual 7 days to 1 hour. This is a key step for BOB in achieving Rollup Phase 1 and Phase 2 on L2beat.
It is reported that Kailua is the OP stack extension built by RISC Zero using its verifiable computing layer Boundless Network, which is a hybrid architecture that can upgrade Optimistic Rollup to Hybrid ZK Rollup (i.e., Hybrid Rollup), combining the advantages of Optimistic Rollups and ZK Rollup, aiming for efficient blockchain settlement and dispute resolution. It quickly processes transactions by default using Optimistic Rollups and enables ZK proofs when disputes arise or quick settlements are needed, attempting to balance high throughput, low cost, and high security. In simple terms, it integrates the capabilities of ZK Rollup advantages into existing Optimistic Rollups.

🚨Boundless ZKC: Powering the Zero-Knowledge Economy🚨
@Boundless Privacy isn't an add-on—it's the new economy, and $ZKC is its fuel. RISC Zero's Boundless protocol, live on mainnet since September 2025, turns zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) into scalable infrastructure via its zkVM, compiling any code into verifiable circuits for any chain.
At the heart is the Boundless Market: A PoVW system where provers stake ZKC as collateral (10x job fee) to deliver proofs on time. Success earns rewards; failures slash 50% (burned) and redistribute bounties. With 1B total supply (20% circulating), inflation drops from 7% Year 1 to 3% by Year 8. Stakers grab 75% emissions, holders vote on upgrades. Backed by Ethereum Foundation and Wormhole, it's on Base (Optimism) with millions of beta proofs processed.
ZKCs utility shines: Provers collateralize for reliability, fees drive burns for deflation, staking (min 100 ZKC) fights sybils. It scales blockchains to "internet speeds"—off-chain proofs, on-chain verification—slashing costs 70% vs. native rollups (e.g., EigenLayer pilot).
Unlock private dApps: Anonymous DEX swaps, zk-DAOs, prediction markets with $5M bets post-launch, yielding 15% APY. Modular networks stack ZK layers for 10K TPS across Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos—cutting hacks 90%. Data ownership? Verify credentials or license datasets privately, tapping a $200B market with ZKC royalties.
Trading at $0.1835 ($88M 24h vol, $36.8M cap), ZKC eyes $1B by 2026 amid volatility. As X buzz says: "ZKC is the pickaxe in the ZK gold rush." Stake your privacy—build the invisible economy.

$ZKC
Did you know @Boundless was launched by the brilliant minds at RISC Zero? They built the first RISC-V zkVM, which is the engine powering Boundless. This allows developers to write ZK proofs in popular languages like Rust and Solidity. That level of flexibility and efficiency is what will bring ZK to every single chain. It's a huge step for the whole ecosystem. I'm bullish on the tech behind $ZKC

Adoption of zkVM: The Universal Computing Engine
The technological heart of Boundless is the integration with a zkVM (Zero-Knowledge Virtual Machine), specifically that of RISC Zero. This engine allows Provers to execute general-purpose code (arbitrarily complex programs) within a verifiable environment. This universality enables Boundless to not only scale transactions but also empower complex use cases such as DeFi risk calculations, secure oracles, and AI validation, all backed by ZK Proofs.

#BuildOnBitcoin upgraded to become the first hybrid zk Rollup, which is a milestone for #boundless .
This means that the OP Kailua and Boundless zk fraud proof services developed by @boundless_xyz's parent company #RiscZero have achieved their first deployment on the BOB chain.
The core of Hybrid zk Rollup is to find a path that is both time-efficient and cost-efficient between the traditional Optimistic Rollup based on optimistic proofs and the zk Rollup based on zk proofs.
Based on the OP Kailua suite, @build_on_bob has migrated from a long interactive fraud proof system to using short non-interactive zk fraud proofs generated by RISC zkVM. In other words, @boundless_xyz provides zk proof generation services for BOB.
And this is just the beginning; it is expected that more traditional Rollups will transform into more flexible Hybrid zk Rollups in the future, driven by the demand of @boundless_xyz's value. #zkEVM

Boundless: The Universal Layer for ZK Compute Across Chains
@Boundless $, developed by RISC Zero, is stepping into the blockchain space with a bold vision: to make zero-knowledge (ZK) computation available everywhere. Rather than being “just another ZK project,” Boundless is positioning itself as the connective tissue between chains, rollups, bridges, and developers — turning ZK proofs into a core utility.
The core strength of Boundless lies in abstraction. Developers don’t need to dive deep into cryptography or build custom proof systems. Instead, they can keep using their favorite programming languages and tools, while outsourcing the heavy lifting to a decentralized marketplace of provers. When a computation request is submitted, provers compete to generate proofs, which are later aggregated and verified on the target chain.
This design introduces a critical shift: execution is separated from consensus. Unlike traditional blockchains where every node re-executes transactions, Boundless ensures only the proof gets verified onchain. This unlocks higher throughput, lower latency, and far greater scalability.
Another innovation is Proof of Verifiable Work (PoVW) — Boundless’ incentive mechanism. Provers are rewarded based on the scale, complexity, and efficiency of the computations they perform. This model encourages fast, high-quality proof generation while keeping the marketplace competitive and decentralized.
Bottom Line: Boundless is emerging as a serious contender for the next generation of blockchain infrastructure. With compute-prove-verify separation, scalable proof aggregation, PoVW incentives, and multi-chain support, it’s paving the way for ZK to shift from niche to mainstream. While challenges remain — from prover reliability to regulatory scrutiny — Boundless has already proven its technical maturity and is fast becoming a backbone layer for privacy, security, and scalability across chai

Boundless: Unlocking Cross-Chain Compute Power with RISC Zero
Developed by RISC Zero, Boundless addresses two of the most pressing challenges in the blockchain space: scalability and interoperability. By leveraging zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and modular architecture, Boundless provides a powerful infrastructure layer purpose-built for high-performance decentralized applications (dApps) in a multi-chain world.

Universal ZKP Infrastructure for Scalable dApps
At its core, Boundless offers a universal zero-knowledge proof infrastructure, enabling blockchains and rollups to offload intensive computation while preserving trust through on-chain verification. This unlocks significant performance benefits:
Higher throughput
Lower latency
Enhanced security
Critically, this is achieved without requiring changes to the underlying chain, ensuring seamless integration for developers and protocols.
---
Decentralized Prover Marketplace
Boundless introduces a novel Proof-of-Verifiable-Work (PoVW) model through its decentralized prover marketplace. In this system:
Node operators are incentivized to generate verifiable compute proofs
Idle compute resources are transformed into economically productive assets
The market dynamically allocates compute power where it’s needed most
---
Strategic Alignment in a Multi-Chain Future
As the blockchain industry accelerates toward a multi-chain architecture, Boundless is uniquely positioned to support this transition. Its key differentiators include:
The zkVM engine built by RISC Zero
A chain-agnostic infrastructure design
A marketplace-driven model fostering collaboration among developers, chains, and service providers
Together, these components create a scalable, composable framework for interoperable ZK computing across diverse blockchain environments.

Genesis supply: 1 billion tokens
Year 1 inflation: 7%, tapering to ~3% annually
Utility:
Collateral for provers
Rewards via PoVW
Staking for governance participation
A carefully structured token allocation supports ecosystem growth, team and investor alignment, and long-term sustainability through transparent vesting mechanisms.
