Polygon’s ‘holy grail’ Ethereum-scaling zkEVM beta hits mainnet By Cointelegraph

[ad_1]



Polygon has released its open-source zkEVM scaling technology to the mainnet, promising reduced transaction costs and increased throughput of smart contract deployments.

Polygon’s zkEVM is a zero-knowledge rollup (ZK-rollups) scaling solution equivalent to the Ethereum Virtual Machine. ZK-rollups increase throughput on Ethereum’s blockchain by batching computations and state storage to layer-2 platforms. The technology allows thousands of transactions to be batched off-chain, with a proof containing a minimal data summary posted to the Ethereum mainnet.
