Polygon Co-Founder Spins Off zkVM Team to Launch ZisK - Unchained
Polygon co-founder Jordi Baylina has spun off from Polygon to launch ZisK, an independent project focused on advancing zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) technology.
The core team behind Polygon’s zkEVM – the zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine – has moved with Baylina to this new venture, transferring all related intellectual property and code to SilentSig Switzerland GmbH, a company wholly owned by Baylina.
ZisK’s mission is to develop a low-latency, open-source zkVM stack, supporting multiple programming languages and enabling scalable, privacy-preserving blockchain applications

It was incubated within Polygon Labs before it was spun off this month, and follows Polygon’s strategic decision to phase out its underutilized zkEVM chain and redirect resources to its proof-of-stake network and AggLayer protocol.
Baylina will remain a Polygon advisor, but his main focus will now be on ZisK.
