1/ 🍋 Part 2 — zk-primitives & DeFi

In Part 1, we looked at the basics - apps like escrows and swaps that already work on Citrea’s UTXO + zk design.

Now we’re moving deeper into what really makes Citrea different.

Let’s talk about zk primitives and Bitcoin-aligned DeFi.

2/zk-native primitives

zk isn’t an addon in Citrea - it’s foundational.

This unlocks use cases that feel native to the system itself.

3/Some of this is already live or being prototyped

Intriguing focus on zk-native primitives in Citrea! This foundational integration sets the stage for unique DeFi applications, leveraging zk-rollups for efficiency and privacy. Excited to see these use cases evolve.
