Rome Protocol Integrates With Polygon AggLayer to Unlock Ethereum-Solana Interoperability

Solana-powered interoperability and scalability layer Rome Protocol has integrated with the AggLayer co-developed by Polygon Labs.

Per the press release shared with Cryptonews, this move enables seamless zero-knowledge (zk)-enhanced interoperability. This means that developers can build decentralized applications (dapps) that leverage Ethereum’s security and Solana’s performance and speed at the same time.

According to the team, this is a key step toward an interconnected blockchain ecosystem as envisioned by the AggLayer team.

Marc Boiron, CEO of Polygon Labs, said that the collaboration provides developers with the best of both the Solana and Ethereum worlds, without trade-offs. “This is a big step toward a truly seamless, high-performance blockchain ecosystem, one that works across all of Web3, not just within isolated networks.”

Moreover, integrating Agglayer’s Ethereum connectivity with Rome Protocol’s interoperability framework gives developers a high-performance, low-latency solution, the announcement said. It reaches Solana’s 4,800+ Transactions per Second (TPS). TPS is a metric that shows the average number of transactions the network processes each second.

More precisely, the integration combines Rome’s Interop framework, Shared Sequencer, and EVM execution layer with Agglayer’s zk-powered network aggregation.

This enables frictionless cross-chain composability between Ethereum and Solana, as well as more scalable, censorship-resistant, and high-performance applications that operate with low latency and high security.

Additionally, the integration creates unified liquidity and seamless asset movement across multiple ecosystems.

“Each blockchain ecosystem offers unique strengths, but true innovation comes from bridging these advantages,” said Anil Kumar, CEO and Co-Founder of Rome Protocol. The “seamless interoperability will drive decentralized technologies closer to mainstream adoption — delivering more scalable, secure, and user-friendly applications to market.”

AggLayer Spreading Wings

Polygon Labs is a software development company that’s building a network of aggregated blockchains through the AggLayer.

The team revealed the first version of the AggLayer a year ago. It’s a public infrastructure that brings together user bases and liquidity for any connected chain. It utilizes Ethereum as a settlement layer. Furthermore, as a centralized protocol, it aggregates zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs from connected chains.

Notably, the AggLayer should help solve the issues of fragmentation and scalability limitations in the blockchain space, the team said.

Exciting stuff!

CDK-Erigon enables devs to build custom L2s with unmatched flexibility (35+ configs working with @gateway_eth) and high levels of zk performance (1K+ TPS).

Also, just recently blockchain infrastructure team Gateway FM announced that Prism Network had been successfully upgraded to the execution client CDK-Erigon.

“This upgrade ensures a more efficient, reliable, and developer-friendly network while maintaining seamless L1 settlement with Agglayer,” Gateway FM wrote.

Just today, Wirex Pay’s new testnet went live on Polygon CDK.
