A single ZK-rollup can’t scale Ethereum. But by working together in an interoperable ecosystem, ZK-rollups and ETH can take on the world. by Andrew Fenton 13 min April 20, 2023 ...
Optimistic and ZK-rollups, the most popular implementations of these Ethereum scaling solutions, have very different security models and user experiences. BTC $ 93,401.20 ...
The ZK rollup race between Ethereum layer 2s Scroll, Polygon and Matter Labs may come down to definitions. By Sam Kessler , Sage D. Young Updated Apr 9, 2024, 11:13 p.m. Published Jul 27, 2022, 11 ...
Ethereum is preparing a full zkEVM rollout at the base layer. Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) will become core to how Ethereum ...
The long-anticipated Ethereum 2.0 upgrade is projected to handle 100,000 tps, although the vast majority of transactions are actually expected to be handled off-chain through ZK-Rollups, a novel ...
ZK-Rollups are a Layer-2 scaling solution that sits above Layer-1 networks such as Ethereum. They're used to roll up cryptocurrency transactions into bigger batches that can be executed "off-chain." ...
ZK-rollups are the hottest thing in Ethereum right now, having seemingly appeared out of nowhere in late 2018 to fundamentally reshape the “Eth2” plan to scale via sharding alone.
ZK rollups use fancy cryptography to take some of the load off Ethereum’s highly trafficked layer 1 network. As a result, they promise to offer users cheaper transactions along with a host of ...
Optimistic rollups. Optimistic rollups do not do any computation by default; rather, they assume all state changes are valid (hence optimistic) and post the off-chain transactions to Ethereum’s ...
Last week, a trio of announcements from Scroll, Matter Labs and Polygon all had something in common: Each company implied that it would be the “first” to bring a zkEVM to market. Congrats to ...
