SWIFT took decades to reach 11,000 institutions. The difference now is that settlement is mathematical, not trust-based. And institutions no longer need to pre-fund trillions in idle capital just to keep the system running. The network @zksync is building compounds the same way.

ZK launched with a stem-cell design. Its economic function is not fixed. Governance can expand it as the network matures through the ZKnomics process. What that looks like is for governance to decide. The foundation is already in place.

SWIFT started with 239 banks in 1973. Today it connects 11,000+ institutions across 200 countries. It grew because shared infrastructure compounds. @zksync is building the next version of that layer. Here is why institutions are already committing 🧵

@bennyharyor2 @zksync I do not think most people fully appreciate how unusual it is for institutions to rely on infrastructure where final coordination rules sit outside the institutions generating most of the activity.

When settlement depends on math instead of bilateral trust between institutions, the $27T sitting idle just to guarantee that trust doesn't need to sit anymore. Traditional finance doesn't need to become crypto. It needs an onchain layer built for regulated institutions. @zksync

This is already in production. Cari Network, founded by the 27th U.S. Comptroller of the Currency, connects 5 U.S. regional banks with $600B+ in deposits on Prividium. Deutsche Bank. BitGo. First Abu Dhabi Bank. These institutions don't make production commitments lightly.

$27 trillion sits locked in pre-funded bank accounts worldwide, not because it has to, but because global finance has never had a shared source of verifiable truth. @zksync just built the architecture that changes that. Here's why institutions are moving, and why it matters 🧵

@foresteregm0855 @RaxFinance Physical infrastructure layers feeding into onchain finance is where the intersections start getting interesting

I took a closer look at @RaxFinance, which has surpassed 250K+ transactions. What's truly striking isn't just the numbers, but the narrative behind them. #AI, #RWA, and #DePIN are becoming increasingly intertwined, and projects are now focusing on building real infrastructure rather than just generating hype. #RAX presents a model that attempts to integrate physical infrastructure layers like computing and energy with on-chain finance. In other words, it aims to transform the "infrastructure layer" needed by the AI ​​economy into a financial structure. Although it's still in its early stages, the trend is clear: as AI grows, the infrastructure side is transforming into a financial market. This is precisely where RAX is positioned.
