Search Results for: Polygon Hermez zkEVM

Polygon’s new open-source sidechain developer stack is set to power Layer 2 solutions on Ethereum, backing its commitment to the evolution of the Ethereum ecosystem. Key to this advancement is the integration of zero-knowledge proof technology, considered critical for the scaling of the Ethereum blockchain. However, critics raise concerns about potential inefficiencies and differing architecture.

“The Ethereum ecosystem is encouraging competition, with many firms developing Zero-Knowledge Scaling solutions. This technology enables secure off-chain computations and only light, non-data-revealing proofs on the Ethereum mainnet. Despite its efficiency, questions arise about the sustainability and security of off-chain transaction computations.”
