Scaling Ethereum means scaling the entire Ethereum ecosystem, infrastructure and all.

Now that Polygon #zkEVM Mainnet Beta has been live for a month+, a SURGE of solution providers across 8 categories are deployed on Polygon zkEVM.

Let’s break it down:
RPC providers. Polygon zkEVM is fully compatible with Ethereum RPC, so any EVM-compatible app, like wallets, should work just like on Ethereum.

Check out RPCs from:
@ankr
@ChainstackHQ
@luganodes
@AlchemyPlatform
Indexers: for sorting through and organizing blockchain data, with more performant results. The best indexers let dApps work fast and support an influx of users.

Live on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta:
@Covalent_HQ
@etherscan
@ZettaBlockHQ
@graphprotocol
Bridges. Polygon Labs revamped the bridge UI for Mainnet Beta, but that’s not the only way to reach the frontier.

Lots of bridges to choose for Polygon zkEVM:
@MultichainOrg
@CelerNetwork
@SocketDotTech
@Orbiter_Finance
@layerswap
@rhinofi
Oracles: off-chain, meet on-chain. Oracles are essential for hybrid smart contracts, external input and data, and complex computations.

The best oracle providers in Web3 are landing on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta:
@API3DAO
@PythNetwork
@witnet_io
Account abstraction/relayers. For ultimate UX, opening up seamless frameworks to do gasless transactions and give users smart-contract based accounts.

Ready to go for devs to integrate:
@biconomy
Fiat onramps. For anyone just starting their journey on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta. Key infra that makes onboarding to the network that much simpler.

Some onramps, with more coming soon:
@Transak
Wallets. So many choices, so many tokens, so many ways to configure Web3 experiences .

A list of what’s out there, with more soon:
Polygon’s revamped zkEVM Wallet Suite
@0xsequence
@Rabby_io
General infra. For dev support, working to make dev experience in Web3 frictionless, compelling, and efficient.

Resources for devs:
@thirdweb
@HardhatHQ
@trufflesuite
Robust infrastructure is essential for layer 2 maturation. When devs have access to a plethora of tools, they build *more* tools.

More tools 👉🏽 more infra. More infra 👉🏽 better experience.

And it’s all happening on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta.

We’re following Friday stats with Monday stats for Polygon zkEVM.

What’s the profile of users on Polygon #zkEVM?

To date, there are ~100k total addresses, which includes wallets and contracts
Of those non-contract addresses, how many of them use other L2s?

Nearly 90% Image
And how old are the wallet addresses on Polygon zkEVM? Or, put another way, how seasoned are these users?

Wallets that are at least one year old (which is a century in cryptotime) make up more than 49% of the total. Image

The goal for Polygon zkEVM, like other L2s, is to be faster and cheaper than transacting on Ethereum.

For the final thread in our feature-set threads for Polygon zkEVM, let’s talk about: LOW COST.
Not long ago, it was thought that zkEVMs would be too costly and require specialized hardware to be practical.

When Polygon Labs’ Hermez team began designing Polygon zkEVM, they were estimating speed using hours and the number of data centers 😂
Proving time is now under two minutes. And cost has also gone down dramatically.

@jbaylina: “The proving cost for a single transaction is no longer relevant.”

Polygon #zkEVM was built around bytecode-level compatibility with the EVM, rather than language-level compatibility.

But plenty of other ZK rollups take the language-level approach. So why was this design choice made?
There are 3 places where a ZK rollup can be compatible:
1. At the bytecode level
2. At an intermediate representation of the compiler, LLVM, or Yul
3. At the Solidity language level
A bytecode compatible system supports Solidity and any language that compiles to Ethereum, like Vyper. This approach doesn’t require a special version of the compiler and it allows for re-use of all of Ethereum’s tooling.

We’re delighted to announce that @0xPolygon and @hermez_network have agreed on a public network merge.

Thread 👇
Right after this announcement, we’ll start the process of integrating the Hermez Network into the Polygon ecosystem, under the name Polygon Hermez.

#PolygonHermez will be maintained and developed with the support of Polygon, which will fund the Hermez team operations.
The main focus of the project will be the development of the #zkEVM.

This was announced by @jbaylina at #EthCC Paris during his talk "Introducing zkEVM."
