The first zero-knowledge scaling solution that is fully equivalent to an EVM.

What is Polygon zkEVM?
Polygon zkEVM is an EVM equivalent ZK rollup scaling solution. All existing smart contracts, developer toolings and wallets work seamlessly. Polygon zkEVM uses the zero-knowledge proofs (validity proofs) to lower transaction costs and increase throughput, while inheriting the base-layer security of Ethereum. Web3 developers can build dApps on zkEVM in the same exact manner as building dApps on Ethereum. All devs need to do is switch their RPC URL endpoint to a zkEVM RPC node provider to start accessing higher throughput and lower fees. The developer experience on zkEVM is seamless, and no special toolings or new wallets are required for building or interacting with zkEVM. Developers can deploy their smart contracts to the zkEVM, and users can deposit assets from Ethereum and transact off-chain. These transactions are grouped into batches with zero-knowledge proofs attesting to the validity of each transaction.
