Polymarket actually has been around for a while, but it only really exploded after the US election
Why is that, bro? Because suddenly there was real demand, real attention, and the use case became obvious to everyone
Sometimes the market is like that, the infra comes first, but people only notice when there’s one big catalyst
And in my opinion, ZKsync could be in a similar phase for institutional adoption
ZKsync now has infrastructure for institutions via Prividium:
- private execution
- compliance-ready environment
- selective disclosure
- auditability
- Ethereum settlement via ZK proofs
- connectivity to broader ZKsync / Ethereum ecosystem
- use case for tokenized deposits, RWA, treasury, payment, settlement
they have become private infra for institutions, but still connected to Ethereum
the market might not be buzzing yet, but if a big catalyst shows up, for example a bank, RWA, tokenized deposit, or settlement use case that actually goes live, the narrative could open up very quickly
