Why Polygon Will Launch First EVM Equivalent Scaling Solution

Why Polygon Will Launch First EVM Equivalent Scaling Solution

According to a press release shared with Bitcoinist, Polygon (MATIC) will launch the first Ethereum equivalent layer two scaling solution, called Polygon zkEVM. Based on Zero Knowledge (ZK) Proof or zk roll-up technology, as the name suggests, this solution will provide developers with the tools to “seemingly” plug into the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector.
