### **What is zkSync?**

zkSync is an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution based on Zero-Knowledge Proofs. It enables faster and more cost-effective Ethereum transactions while maintaining the security of Ethereum Layer 1. This makes using zkSync more attractive in decentralized applications, such as exchanges and payment apps.

### **What is ve(3,3)?**

Ve(3,3) is a decentralized finance (DeFi) tokenomics design first proposed by Andre Cronje, founder of Yearn Finance, who combined the aspects of the Curve vote-escrow mechanism with OlympusDAO’s (3, 3) staking.

### &#x20;How it Works

Crus works by leveraging the ZkSync Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum. This allows for fast and cheap transactions, while still maintaining the security and trustlessness of the Ethereum blockchain. Crus also uses a mechanism for managing liquidity, which allows liquidity providers to define their own price ranges and capital utilization rates.

If you're looking for a decentralized exchange with flexible liquidity management and optimized trading paths, then Crus might be the perfect choice for you. With its permissionless and trustless trading on ZkSync, Crus provides increased capital efficiency and reduced slippage.
