Polygon’s zkEVM Public Testnet to enable smoother Ethereum migration
DeFi protocols Aave and Uniswap, along with other projects, will be among the first projects to deploy on the zkEVM testnet. Decentralized Ethereum scaling platform Polygon (MATIC) announced the launch of Polygon zkEVM Public Testnet, an “Ethereum-equivalent” ecosystem with cross-compatibility to existing smart contracts, developer tools and wallets built on Ethereum and Polygon PoS.Zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM) is a layer-2 construction on top of Ethereum that aims to improve scalability through mass transfer processing rolled into a single transaction. The testnet....

Polygon uses zero-knowledge proof to club multiple transactions into groups before relaying them over to the Ethereum blockchain as a single transaction. Polygon, a Web3 infrastructure on the Ethereum blockchain, announced the launch of Polygon zkEVM or zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine, a Layer-2 scaling solution aimed at reducing transaction costs and improving scalability. The new zero-knowledge (ZK) scaling solution, Polygon zkEVM, operates in full compatibility with existing Ethereum (ETH)-based smart contracts, developer tools and wallets using zero-knowledge cryptography....
A new scaling solution, zkEVM Rollups, could allow Ethereum to overcome Visa in terms of transaction throughput, says Polygon co-founder Mihailo Bjelic. zkEVM Rollups, a new scaling solution for Ethereum, will allow the smart contract protocol to outpace Visa in terms of transaction throughput, said Polygon co-founder Mihailo Bjelic in a recent interview with Cointelegraph. Polygon recently claimed to be the first to implement a zkEVM scaling solution, which aims at reducing Ethereum’s transaction costs and improving its throughput. This layer-2 protocol can bundle together several....
