Web3 infrastructure service provider LayerEdge has partnered with TRON to upgrade zero-knowledge proof security.

Recently, according to reports from well-known overseas media outlets such as CryptoSlate and Business Insider, Web3 infrastructure service provider LayerEdge announced a partnership with TRON to introduce a security mechanism anchored to the Bitcoin chain to its high-throughput ecosystem. LayerEdge provides zero-knowledge (zk) proof integration services for leading L1 blockchain ecosystems, and its edgenOS platform will build an immutable state verification framework for the TRON network.

As blockchain technology continues to advance towards higher levels of interoperability and security, LayerEdge Validation Network, in partnership with TRON, has set a new benchmark for building truly verifiable and trust-native internet infrastructure.

Following this integration, LayerEdge's verification network will verify the TRON chain state in real time and anchor the verification results to the Bitcoin chain's Proof-of-Work (PoW) security layer. This technical architecture adds an independent and verifiable layer of security to the TRON ecosystem. Currently, the TRON network handles over $24 billion in daily transactions and has more than 342 million accounts.

Sam Elfarra, a spokesperson for the TRON community, stated, “Combining zero-knowledge proofs with the security of Bitcoin represents an innovative breakthrough in blockchain security. LayerEdge’s technology further solidifies TRON’s commitment to building a secure and transparent global digital financial infrastructure. By anchoring network state proofs to the Bitcoin chain, we have achieved unprecedented immutability verification, thereby comprehensively enhancing the trust level of the ecosystem.”

LayerEdge's edgenOS platform generates zero-knowledge proofs for TRON block headers in real time. These proofs are recursively combined in edgenOS's proof aggregation layer to form a verifiable recursive tree structure, which is ultimately anchored to the Bitcoin chain. This mechanism is tamper-proof and independent of any single network's verification nodes, setting a new benchmark for cross-chain trust and security.

LayerEdge co-founder Ayash Gupta stated, "The sheer scale and global reach of the TRON network provide an excellent platform to showcase the Bitcoin chain's anchoring and verification capabilities. TRON has processed over 11 billion transactions and carries the world's largest USDT circulation. This collaboration further demonstrates that mainstream blockchain ecosystems can fully leverage Bitcoin's immutable security advantages without sacrificing performance and scalability."

This technology implementation has achieved three major security upgrades:

Immutable anchoring: Each proof cycle is based on Bitcoin's PoW consensus mechanism, building a highly secure verification layer that resists economic or network attacks.

Independent and verifiable: Users worldwide can verify the correctness of TRON blocks through edgenOS, ensuring complete transparency.

Decentralization Enhancement: By integrating with edgenOS, it further enhances the level of decentralization by establishing an externally verifiable source of truth on the Bitcoin Chain (the world's most decentralized public blockchain).

LayerEdge is a two-layer protocol designed specifically for a verifiable internet. Its core verification layer builds a global coordination network through zero-knowledge proof aggregation technology and recursively anchors the verification results to the Bitcoin chain, thereby supporting the trust-native internet (edgenOS) and edgenEVM to achieve cross-chain secure mutual trust.
