ChainCatcher news, the developer of zkVM, Nexus, has launched the first test version of the Nexus network, which is an open validator network.The team stated: "This is the first distributed validator network based on zero-knowledge virtual machines that anyone can access. The network aggregates the collective power of any connected device, from large-scale GPU farms to computers or smartphones. Our goal is to unite computers around the world to form a single supercomputer capable of proving all computations on the internet, thereby unlocking a verifiable internet."

ChainCatcher news, zkSync released an article announcing its validator network milestone. According to this milestone, real-time validation of the validator network (Prover Network Live Proving) is expected to be achieved in Q4 2024.zkSync stated that a significant part of this process will require complex software and hardware co-design. The decentralization of validators in zkSync Era will be achieved through stronger participation.
