While Part 1 (#486) focused on the technological advancements that allowed proofs to be generated in a practical manner, lowering both the time and the hardware requirements, in this episode, we take a closer look at the use cases of different types of zk rollups and how they could promote blockchain mass adoption. Polygon’s zk EVM equivalence, coupled with low transaction fees, promise a frictionless user experience. As with all L2 rollups, sequencer decentralisation remains a pressing issue that needs to be solved.
We were joined by Jordi Baylina (tech lead) & David Schwartz (CTO) from Polygon’s zkEVM, to discuss the relationship between Polygon’s multiple zk rollups, their use cases, as well as network statistics for zk-EVM.
