Polygon, the Ethereum-based scaling platform launched its zero-knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine (zkEVM) Mainnet Beta on March 27th, 2021. The Polygon Co-founder Sandeep Nailwal recently shared a tweet today morning citing ‘Polygon zkEVM= Ethereum’, reaffirming the platform's commitment to Web3 ethos. Furthermore, the co-founder Brendan Farmer also shared a series of tweets detailing the features of zkEVM and how it is closely associated to Ethereum blockspace. It is to be noted that everything related to zkEVM is parallel to that of Ethereum and has no bad user experience like withdrawal delays. Moreover, it is the only roll-up on the main net that satisfies the equivalence with Ethereum, making it possible to use the same code, developer and security tools, wallets, and infrastructure. Also, there are no need of any compilers or re-audits while using the zkEVM roll-up. Besides, it does not have any withdrawal delays, ensuring fund deposits and withdrawal from the Ethereum main layer at the same time. Finally, Farmer suggested that the best way to create more blockspace for Ethereum is to make it closely related to the Ethereum main layer (L1).
