Aligned Layer is a decentralized zero-knowledge proof verification layer for Ethereum, powered by EigenLayer. The project significantly reduces the cost and time required for ZK proof verification, making Ethereum a more efficient settlement layer for validity and ZK proofs.
The native token $ALIGN will serve as the utility token for the Aligned ecosystem, with details on its exact utility to be released closer to TGE.
In its Pre-Seed round, Aligned Layer raised $1M to support early development. This round was the first of several fundraising milestones in 2024, followed by a $2.6M Seed round and $20M Series A.
