About Aligned
Aligned provides infrastructure for verifying zero-knowledge proofs, funnelling proofs from different systems into one verification network and submitting them to Ethereum as an aggregated proof, serving rollups, ZK coprocessors and protocols that need offchain computation. It does not generate proofs; it accepts outputs from PLONK, Groth16, SP1, RISC Zero and other backends and recursively aggregates several into one, lowering the onchain cost per verification, with economic security from restaked assets on EigenLayer and results readable by other chains.
It sits between proof producers and the settlement layer, distinct from rollups that each maintain their own verifier in making verification a shared service, so a new proof system needs no per-chain deployment. After ALIGN launched on 20 August 2026, the top ten addresses held about 98% of circulating supply, the token serves only to pay verification fees, and there is no protocol-level buyback.
Aligned began development in February 2024, launched its public testnet in June, and went live with mainnet beta in November, verifying over 136,000 proofs. In April 2026, it updated token economics, reducing initial circulating supply to ~16% and allocating 8.74% for airdrops. In July 2026, it deprecated the Proof Verification Layer in favor of the Proof Aggregation Service, marking a strategic shift toward recursive proof aggregation and Ethereum-native security.
Launch and unlocks: ALIGN launched on August 20 with a fixed 10 billion supply and roughly 16% circulating, about 1.63 billion tokens, debuting on Coinbase, Kraken and five other exchanges; team (23.5%) and investor (19.71%) allocations carry a 12-month cliff, so neither circulates before August 2027 and more than 80% of supply stays locked.
Setback: the token hit an all-time low of $0.0087 on September 3, down 74% from its $0.0338 launch peak, with a $14.22 million market cap; the top 10 wallets hold 98% of circulating supply, there is no buyback, and the token is only used to pay for services.
In January 2026 Aligned's proof aggregation service went live on Ethereum mainnet, recursively merging multiple zero-knowledge proofs into one verified for roughly 300,000 gas, with the cost shared across the batch. In July the team retired the original proof verification layer launched in November 2024, reasoning that ZK tooling and Ethereum's roadmap had moved fast enough that a separate verification network was no longer the best long-term architecture, making aggregation the default. On August 20 ALIGN held its token generation event, the same day depositing seven million tokens as voting incentives into the ALIGN/USDC pool on Aerodrome, and listed on MEXC and other centralised venues.
Aligned's product line widened accordingly: rollup-as-a-service built on LambdaClass's Ethrex client, wallet-as-a-service, an interoperability layer and the RISC-V LambdaVM, with first production customer Sovra serving more than eight million users in Latin America. Mainnet currently supports SP1 proofs, with Zisk integration under way.
Aligned plans to make aggregation the default for Ethrex rollups, prove the RaaS business model with first partner chains, and push proof costs into a predictable subscription band.
