We are thrilled to release an upgraded version of the Scroll Pre-Alpha Testnet! scroll.mirror.xyz/FYzq9QWb2UhS00… πŸ“œ
The upgraded Pre-Alpha Testnet will be the first chance for early developers to experience contract deployment on Scroll and to interact with our infrastructure. πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
1/ Our new test-net upgrade enables smart contract deployment on the Scroll network.

This allows developers to write and deploy their own contracts on Scroll using the same Ethereum developer tools we all know and love!

Let's dive into the technical details of the upgrade πŸ‘‡
2/ (a) Developers will be able to deploy smart contract applications using toolings like Hardhat and Foundry.

(b) Users can bridge NFTs and user-defined ERC-20s between our Layer 1 and Layer 2 testnets on our upgraded bridge contract.
3/ As we continue to progressively scale our proving nodes, we will relax the performance-motivated restrictions currently in place and onboard all our eager testers. 10k+ users have been onboarded and testnet registration is open to the community at signup.scroll.io
4/ How can I get involved as a developer?

If you are interested in deploying smart contracts on our testnet, please complete the form here scroll.io/early-dev for early developer support.
This past weekend we had several teams successfully deploy on our testnet @ETHGlobal's hackathon #ETHBogota and we are beyond excited to see what our broader developer community builds!
5/ What's next for Scroll?

Soon after this upgrade, we will release our Alpha Testnet. Our community can expect the following features:

(a) A fully permissionless testnet open to all users without whitelisting.
6/ (b) Proving throughput improvement with increased compute and batch block verification.

(c) Generating and aggregating more pieces of the zkEVM proof to be verified on-chain.
7/ As we move step by step towards an eventual main-net release, we will enable successively more pieces of our final architecture, including a decentralized Roller network and integrations with EVM-native infrastructure tools.
And as always, stay tuned to learn more about our progress! πŸ“œ

Introducing Scroll - Technical Principles

To scale Ethereum with our zkEVM-based zkRollup, we have designed Scroll with a set of key technical principles in mind which uphold Scroll’s core values.

Our latest post outlines those principles πŸ“œ

mirror.xyz/scroll.eth/N7c…
1/ We believe that upholding the Ethereum community's core principles at Layer 2 is of the highest priority.

This means building a solution that remains 100% aligned with Ethereum at the protocol level.

What are our technical principles? πŸ‘‡
2/ (1) Ensuring User Security

For Scroll, this means users should not need to rely on the honesty of Layer 2 nodes for security and can instead take advantage of full Layer 1 security even when transacting on Layer 2.

After over a year of building our zkEVM-based zkRollup in close collaboration with the @PrivacyScaling group at the Ethereum Foundation, we are releasing the pre-alpha version of Scroll for external testers! πŸ“œ

mirror.xyz/scroll.eth/XQy…
1/ In the spirit of building in the open with the community, we have prioritized getting community feedback quickly with this initial release.

If you’d like to be an early tester, sign up at signup.scroll.io for access.
2/ We will invite as many testers as possible while we drive towards a permissionless, public release.

This week we published our latest article outlining Scroll's Vision and Core Values! πŸ“œ

Below is a thread summarizing our most important talking points πŸ‘‡
mirror.xyz/scroll.eth/EYn…
1/ Empowering Humanity πŸ’ͺ

At Scroll, our grand vision is to empower both developers and users by making Ethereum's decentralized and secure services accessible to all, whether that be for financial, or non-financial purposes.
2/ By starting with an EVM-equivalent solution, we allow existing applications and developer toolings to migrate from Ethereum to Scroll without deep modifications. This gives the benefits of scaling while minimizing any obstructions to the current workflows and interfaces.

1/19 After a year of building, we are excited to announce Scroll, a zkEVM-based zkRollup on Ethereum. We are researchers and hackers dedicated to creating the most developer friendly scaling solution for Ethereum.

Check us out at: scroll.io
2/19 Our goal is to make interacting with Layer 2 as easy as interacting with Layer 1 Ethereum for both developers and end users. Because Scroll is fully EVM-equivalent, the experience will be exactly the same, with significantly reduced gas fees and increased throughput.
3/19 For users, this means:
* a Layer 2 chain with lower transaction cost and higher throughput, but inheriting security guarantees from Ethereum
* the same user interface and experience they are used to from existing dapps
* direct compatibility with existing wallets
