Hacken Chosen to Audit Syscoin’s Layer 2

Blockchain technology is changing fast. Rollups are on the horizon and represent a massive leap forward in scalability and affordability, which will usher an unprecedented level of adoption. Multiple protocols are racing to ensure their platforms will be rollup ready, because failure to do so will mean failure to remain relevant. Syscoin is already ahead of the pack, as we have been working around the clock to make Syscoin Rollux the go-to rollup suite for anyone who takes security seriously, all within the complete architecture Syscoin offers from our modular Layer 1 and up. In order to help prove the security of our protocol, we are proud to announce our latest partnership with Hacken.

Syscoin represents an opportunity for Hacken to put their expertise to use testing our Layer 2 built atop our Layer 1 NEVM running parallel to our Bitcoin-backed UTXO Layer 1 chain.

Security is something that can simply not be taken for granted. It is why we chose to base Syscoin on the Bitcoin network’s gold standard and why we are excited to have Hacken help prove our vision for the way a holistic blockchain system ought to operate. We are working together to achieve our shared vision of faster, cheaper, and more secure transactions ushering in the next level of blockchain adoption.
