Polygon co-founder Jordi Baylini continues to serve Polygon in an advisory capacity.
Polygon co-founder Jordi Baylina has spun off a new zero-knowledge project called ZisK — an independent initiative aimed at supporting multiple programming languages and accelerating the adoption of decentralized technologies.
ZisK is a fully open-source zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkEVM) stack initially developed at Polygon, the new company said in a Wednesday social media post. Baylina said his main focus will shift to developing ZisK, but he will continue to serve Polygon in an advisory role.
The Baylina-led spinoff will house seven additional developers, described as the “core minds behind the Polygon zkEVM prover.” According to ZisK, the development team has worked together for at least three years.
