NAUT tracks 17 zkSync ecosystem projects, read from its company database on 8 November 2026: the 17 rows kept from the 25 zkSync-tagged company pages that carry 3 or fewer chain tags, grouped into 6 product categories. 8 of the 17 have a live token on NAUT's record and 9 do not, and wallet and account abstraction is the largest category at 5 of the 17.
How this list was built, all of it from NAUT's own company database on 8 November 2026: 86 company rows carry the zkSync chain tag, 2 of them archived or merged, leaving 84. 59 of those 84 carry 4 or more chain tags, so they read as chain-agnostic products rather than zkSync projects and are set aside here. That leaves 25 rows with 3 or fewer chain tags. The zkSync row itself is the network, so it is out as the ecosystem's anchor. 7 more are out, each on the wording of its own stored description: 3 whose own text names a different home or no chain at all (Space, a Solana prediction markets protocol; Gitcoin, an Ethereum grants platform; Arweave, a chain-agnostic storage protocol), 2 with no stored description at all to confirm a zkSync product (Fulcrom, ZyfAI), and 2 Sygnum rows, a digital asset bank and its liquidity fund, whose text describes institutional custody with no zkSync feature. 17 remain, and every number below is counted after that cut.
One claim in this article was put to an outside source: zkSync's own funding total. None of the 17 project rows was read outside NAUT, so each row's category and product line below is NAUT's stored record of that company and nothing more. Where this article says NAUT holds a website for a row, that means a URL is on file, not that the site was opened.
Which zkSync ecosystem projects are on NAUT, and what does each build?
All 17 rows, sorted by category and then by how many chain tags each carries on NAUT. The product line in each cell is what the row's NAUT page carries, shortened where the stored text runs long, and the Token column is NAUT's record of a launched token.

3 of the 17 are tagged on zkSync and nothing else: getclave, Syncus and Derivio. 2 more name the stack in their own stored line, xRaise as a smart wallet on zkSync and Tevaera as a zkStack-based L3. NAUT holds a website for 10 of the 17 and an X handle for all 17.
Which zkSync ecosystem projects have a live token?
8 of the 17 carry a launched token on NAUT's record, and the split is uneven by category. Token live counts the rows with a launched token on file; the rest of each category's projects have none.
| Category | Projects | Token live |
|---|---|---|
| Wallet and account abstraction | 5 | 1 |
| DeFi | 4 | 3 |
| Infrastructure and AI | 3 | 3 |
| SocialFi and NFT | 3 | 0 |
| Trading | 1 | 0 |
| Gaming | 1 | 1 |
All 3 infrastructure and AI rows have a token live, and all 3 SocialFi and NFT rows have none on NAUT's record. For a founder raising, that is the cleanest read in the table: the wallet and account abstraction group holds 4 of the 9 rows with no token on file, which is where token design and launch work is still ahead rather than behind.
What this tells a BD team working the zkSync ecosystem
- The addressable list is small and nameable. 17 companies means a full-coverage sequence, not a sampling exercise, and every one has an X handle on file for a first touch.
- Chain tags tell you how much of the pitch is zkSync-specific. 3 rows sit on zkSync alone and 5 carry 3 chain tags, so a multichain pitch lands with Arken Finance, Heurist, OMNIA Protocol, Releap Protocol and MetaBrands, while getclave, Syncus and Derivio read as zkSync-first.
- Token status sorts the offer. The 8 rows with a live token are buyers for market making, listings, custody and liquidity work. The 9 without are buyers for tokenomics, legal and launch support.
- 7 of the 17 have no website on file at NAUT, so the X handle and the NAUT page are the route in for those rows.
- Split by token status8 rows have a live token on NAUT's record, 9 have none, and the offer differs for each half.
- Pick the chain-first rowsgetclave, Syncus and Derivio are tagged on zkSync alone.

How to reach the teams behind these zkSync ecosystem projects
Every project above links to its NAUT page, and each page carries the team NAUT holds for that company, with the channels on file named on each person's profile. The fastest route for this list: open the 5 wallet and account abstraction pages first, since that is the largest category at 5 of the 17, then the 8 rows with a live token, which are the ones already past a launch.

zkSync ecosystem projects FAQ
What projects are in the zkSync ecosystem?
On NAUT's record read on 8 November 2026, 17 zkSync ecosystem projects sit across 6 categories: wallet and account abstraction (getclave, Zyfi, Holdstation, xRaise, InteractWith), DeFi (Syncus, Fringe Finance, TiTi Protocol, Arken Finance), infrastructure and AI (RSS3, Heurist, OMNIA Protocol), SocialFi and NFT (Koi Network, Releap Protocol, MetaBrands), trading (Derivio) and gaming (Tevaera).
How many zkSync projects have launched a token?
8 of the 17 zkSync ecosystem projects on NAUT carry a launched token on NAUT's record as of 8 November 2026: Syncus, Tevaera, Holdstation, Fringe Finance, RSS3, Heurist, OMNIA Protocol and Arken Finance. The other 9 have no token on file.
How much has zkSync raised?
Matter Labs, the company behind zkSync Era, had raised $458M in total as of November 2022, when it closed a $200M round, according to The Block. Blockchain Capital led its Series C, and Coinbase Ventures and Consensys invested in earlier rounds.
Why are only 17 of the 25 zkSync-tagged rows listed?
The zkSync row is the network itself, and the other 7 are out on the wording of their own stored description: 3 name a different home chain or none (Space, Gitcoin, Arweave), 2 carry no stored description to confirm a zkSync product (Fulcrom, ZyfAI), and 2 Sygnum rows describe institutional custody with no zkSync feature. A further 59 of the 84 live zkSync-tagged rows carry 4 or more chain tags and read as chain-agnostic, so they are set aside before that cut.
Where can I find the teams behind these zkSync ecosystem projects and their contact channels?
On NAUT. Each of the 17 project pages linked above lists the team NAUT holds for that company, and GET https://api.naut.so/v1/projects?q=zksync&limit=100 returns the zkSync-tagged projects NAUT holds, which this article then filtered down to these 17.
