Research summary

Scroll

Scroll is a zkEVM-based zkRollup on Ethereum that enables native compatibility for existing Ethereum applications and tools.

Project summary

Scrol was designed following a set of technical principles that reinforce its central values: user security: guaranteed by providing users with full security of L1;  EVM equivalence: enables users and developers to migrate without additional changes, maintaining an environment equivalent to EVM; efficiency: includes low tx fees and a satisfactory user experience while maintaining security in a decentralized environment; and decentralization: addressed in aspects that include operator nodes, testers, and the developer and user community.Security and decentralization drove the design of Scroll.

Its zkEVM focus provides the best security for users and developers and maintains compatibility with $ETH tools.Scroll's decentralized testing network reduces testing times and increases scalability.

In addition, it incentivizes the community to improve the infrastructure

zkEVM-based zkRollup on Ethereum

USE CASES

Empoweering humanity

Scroll aims to scale blockchains so that it can be assessible for billions of users.

Build in the open with the community
They believe the open-source DNA at the very heart of Scroll will make it the most secure and robust ZK-rollup, and we will continue collaborating with the community and contributing our solutions back to Ethereum

Fight for decentralization and censorship resistance
Scroll aims to achieve the same levels of decentralization and censorship resistance as base layer Ethereum itself
