everyone’s eyes are creeping toward mainnet and the noise is getting louder
Union flipped the script with chain-verified messaging, validator set doing the checks so signers/MPC stay out of the room
State Lenses track source chain directly multi-hop, NFTs, governance
Another big week lining up for Union
What’s shipping and why it matters:
➤ ucs03-zkgm-0 - ZK-secured general message passing; data/assets/intents move across Ethereum, Cosmos, Bitcoin only after proof and single-delivery verification
➤ Web3 without borders - proof
every timeout compounds doubt
every missing ack leaks decentralization
Union brings zk light clients + edge provers so verification arrives with the message
what happens when finality shows up with the packet
no custodial bridges, no waiting rooms, no forced liquidations
➥ Union Spitzer | mainnet signals
Fragmented chains, clunky bridges, user friction you felt it. Union is stitching the zk-fabric that lets assets, governance and data glide across ecosystems with security preserved and UX intact
Why it matters
➤ Spitzer = blockspace
zkgm
Build faster, connect everywhere, unleash the future that’s the brief
With Union we’re racing toward mainnet before summer taps out, yapping winds down, testers ship their last reports, allocations get set
Spitzer is the conveyor in the back room, slotting
Interoperability without middlemen sounds great Union is wiring it with ZK + IBC and consensus verification
Why it matters
➤ Verifying another chain’s state is heavy, fragmented, and often outsourced to trusted parties
➤ Permissionless cross-chain is the unlock for
➥ Union zk Interoperability Layer
$U will be ERC20 on ETH mainnet, aligning incentives with the home of liquidity
Key pillars:
➤ Bridge aggregator that routes assets/liquidity across networks
➤ zk Bridges + IBC for trustless, private, verifiable transfers
➤ Permissionless
Proof compression = faster interop
Skip the pitch, this is the unlock
Union compresses zk proofs so verification stays light, fees drop, and finality hops cross-chain without drama Bitcoin included. It turns settlement from bottleneck to feature

As we edge to TGE and mainnet, here’s what the community can verify (NFA + DYOR):

The multichain world keeps getting louder; Union keeps getting sharper
ZK at the core so chains connect clean, proofs on tap so if a leg fails, funds snap back and state rewinds
Fail-safe cross-chain calls by default, not a footnote

➥ Union ZK Interop Simplified
Union is building a proof-first interoperability layer to unify DeFi across chains
➤ ZK verification of cross-chain events for minimized trust
➤ Unified routes for assets and messages to reduce fragmentation
➤ Builder-first primitives
➥ Bitcoin DeFi, but native
Most BTC yield today forces wrapping and bridges with extra trust and contract risk. BOB introduces a BitVM bridge that keeps your BTC on Bitcoin while opening a full DeFi surface
Why it matters:
➤ No wrappers, no custodians
➤
Trust is the unlock for AI
The internet gave us information
Blockchains gave us trust in money
Recall gives us trust in intelligence
Outputs and reasoning bound to cryptographic proof, stored forever, shared memory for agents and humans
Transparent, verifiable,
➥ Bitcoin DeFi that keeps BTC sovereign
What is BOB?
A next‑gen layer that anchors to Bitcoin while speaking EVM, powered by a BitVM‑based bridge so native BTC can move trust‑minimized, verifiable, challengeable
