# Zircuit

> Innovation meets security. For everyone.

Zircuit is an EVM-compatible zero-knowledge rollup that uses AI to monitor transactions for security threats at the sequencer level.

Zircuit is a zero-knowledge rollup that helps developers deploy EVM-compatible applications with built-in security monitoring. Users can process transactions with lower fees while benefiting from AI-powered threat detection at the sequencer level. Its combination of zero-knowledge proofs and real-time AI analysis distinguishes it from traditional rollup infrastructure.

## Products

- [Zircuit L2](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): Zircuit is a zero-knowledge rollup technology with hybrid architecture combining Optimism Bedrock with ZK proofs and AI security monitoring, enabling EVM-compatible smart contract execution and automated malicious transaction prevention. The system processes transactions at reduced costs while maintaining Ethereum-level security through real-time AI analysis at the sequencer level. (L2, Live, Main Product)
- [Zircuit L1 Bridge](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): Zircuit L1 Bridge is a cross-chain asset transfer protocol with canonical bridging infrastructure, enabling secure ETH and ERC-20 token deposits and withdrawals between Ethereum and Zircuit L2. The system processes bridging operations with optimized security architecture while maintaining compatibility with standard bridge interfaces and automated fraud prevention mechanisms. (Bridge, Live)
- [Zircuit Liquidity Hub](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): Zircuit Liquidity Hub is a liquid staking infrastructure with multi-asset support, enabling users to stake ETH, LSTs, and LRTs while maintaining liquidity. The platform provides staking rewards, restaking capabilities, and project airdrop participation. (Liquid Staking, Live)
- [Gud Tech](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): Gud Tech is an AI-driven automated finance platform with market intelligence delivery and algorithmic trading infrastructure, enabling users to access research insights and DeFi strategies. The system provides actionable trading intelligence while developing risk management tools and AI agent vaults for decentralized finance operations. (AI Agent Platform, Live)
- [Zircuit Explorer](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): Zircuit Explorer is a blockchain data visualization platform with comprehensive transaction monitoring and network analytics, enabling users to examine L2 blocks, cross-chain transactions, and smart contract interactions. The system provides real-time network statistics while supporting contract verification and token tracking functionality. (Block Explorer, Live)

## Assets

- [Zircuit (ZRC)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): ZRC is the utility token of Zircuit, a zero-knowledge rollup on Ethereum. It is used for protocol governance, staking through Zircuit's Liquidity Hub, and receiving gas rebates. ZRC holders can also earn a share of protocol fees, giving the token a direct economic link to activity on the network. (Utility)
- [Gud Tech (GUD)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/zircuit): GUD is the utility token of Gud Tech, an AI platform for automated finance on Zircuit. It is used to access market intelligence from AI agents that research and summarize trading opportunities, and can be earned by staking ZRC tokens to participate in the ecosystem. GUD was distributed through a fair launch model, with a large share made available directly through decentralized exchanges on day one, allowing holders to trade and provide liquidity without a presale allocation. (Utility)
