Lineth is a production-grade, EVM-equivalent zk-rollup stack for Ethereum. It covers the full Layer 2 pipeline. The execution is built on Besu with L2-specific plugins.

Code & Projects

Trust over IP (ToIP) has reached an important milestone in advancing interoperable digital infrastructure: the formal registration of the urn:said namespace by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). SAIDs are content-derived identifiers, meaning they are computed directly from the content they represent rather than assigned externally.
