The zkEVM has become a very popular topic over the last 2 years. It has arguably become the gold standard technology for scaling Ethereum – not only through layer 2, but also through layer 1 directly – “snark Ethereum itself for the end game”. We have been pushing forward this ambitious dream together with the Privacy and Scaling Exploration team since the beginning, and have committed to keep co-building it in the future.

In this article, I want to share some of the lessons we have learned while building the zkEVM, and how we’ve been thinking of different trade-offs along the way. We’re taking a different approach than other projects in the ecosystem, and this places us in a unique position.

Really nice blog post by the Scroll zkEVM team about their approach to bringing ZK power to Ethereum — security-first and community-first. I like them because they are building on top of and extending the Zcash Halo ZKP technology.
