Syscoin (SYS), a cryptocurrency project that boasts 60,000 transactions per second, announced last week that it has launched its trustless Syscoin Bridge with Ethereum (ETH) on its testnet.
After over a year of #interoperability research and development, and months of internal testing, we are thrilled to announce the trustless #Syscoin Bridge with #Ethereum is live on testnet and open to the public! Read all about it at the link in comments!

According to the announcement, Syscoin Bridge allows blockchain users to convert between SYS and ETH using zero-knowledge proofs that allow for token fungibility via a two-way minting and burning process.
“Syscoin Bridge is set to offer trustless interoperability between the Syscoin and Ethereum blockchains, freeing you from the common limitations and risks when moving from one platform to another,” states the Syscoin team. “Neither counter-parties nor incentivized custodial holders are required to use the bridge.”
As we previously reported, Syscoin now has roughly 30% of its total coin supply locked up in masternodes. Syscoin’s continued focus on incentivizing masternodes is ultimately to promote a healthy network and allow the proper functioning of Zero Confirmation Acyclic Graph (Z-DAG), an instant settlement protocol enabled by masternodes.
