Announcing our new strategic partnership with 4Mica
Announcing a new strategic partnership between Aligned and 4Mica

Today we are excited to announce a new strategic partnership between Aligned and 4Mica, a financial infrastructure that enables sub-second value exchange across any blockchain.
4Mica enables services to extend a line-of-credit by issuing cryptographic fair-exchange guarantees. An immediate application of this infrastructure is trustless, non-custodial, micropayment aggregation: a service that will let us make significant improvements to the payment system used in our ZK Verification Layer.
4Mica is a new company being launched by experts from 3MI Labs, a trusted research partner we have collaborated with on deep technical topics such as zkVM security.
4Mica’s technology will let us continue lowering the costs of proof verification on Ethereum and improving the developer experience for Aligned, and we look forward to this ongoing technical collaboration.
