❓ | Why zkSync?

Introducing zkSync Era, the groundbreaking layer 2 protocol that has been designed to scale Ethereum's security and values through the power of zero-knowledge cryptography. With its unparalleled features, we are confident that zkSync Era will quickly overtake its competitors in the L2 space in the coming months.

One of the main reasons we have decided to build on zkSync Era is its unrivaled capabilities in delivering hyper scalability to decentralized applications. By leveraging the power of zero-knowledge proofs, zkSync Era is able to enable higher scalability and lower gas fees while also ensuring fast finality and strong anti-tampering measures.

Security is also a critical aspect in the world of blockchain, and zkSync Era once again stands out with its superior security model. Unlike other L2 protocols that rely on game theory or fraud proofs, zkSync Era utilizes cryptographic and mathematical primitives to broadcast cryptographic proofs that make it impossible to spoof or corrupt transaction states. This ensures that user funds are always secure and protected.

Another compelling aspect of zkSync Era is its game-changing UX that supports native account abstraction. This feature gives developers the ability to create experiences that abstract away some of the most common users' pain points such as seed phrases, payment scheduling, and gas fees. By enabling users to build smart contract accounts (CAs), they also gain the ability to pay gas fees in any token, or even have them paid on their behalf.

Overall, we believe that zkSync Era is a revolution in the blockchain space and is a game changer that will push the adoption of blockchain technology to the next level. That is why we are committed to building on this protocol and look forward to being among the first to deliver to users cutting edge experiences enabled by zkSync Era.
