ZKsync Foundation - Treasury Report

Hello and thanks for raising this, I appreciate the constructive push toward greater transparency.

I’d like to clarify an important structural distinction: within the ZKsync ecosystem, it is the ZKsync Association that supports the governance system that is used to manage tokens under the control of the Token Assembly. The ZKsync Association recently published an annual report which can be found here.

The ZKsync Foundation is an independent entity that was assigned a portion of tokens at launch to fulfil a specific mandate which is to accelerate the adoption of the ZKsync technology. It does this by pursuing strategic partnerships and funding ecosystem infrastructure development and related costs with direct deployments and not governance token allocations.

To maintain transparency, the Foundation has shared regular updates throughout 2025 outlining its priorities and work, for example here, here and here.

We’ll continue providing updates along these lines going forward, and we’re actively considering what additional information can be shared in a way that meaningfully increases transparency without limiting the Foundation’s impact.
