Upgrading the Scroll Pre-Alpha Testnet
After 3 months of building, we are excited to release an upgraded version of the Scroll Pre-Alpha Testnet. Our previous version onboarded over 10k users to test our bridge and demo forks of dapps like Uniswap. We'd like to thank the community for their helpful feedback on our UI/UX, and we are working hard to scale up our proving infrastructure to support the 100K+ users on our waitlist. Our new testnet upgrade enables smart contract deployment on Scroll. This allows developers to write ...

An overview of Scroll's architecture
Scroll is an EVM-equivalent zkRollup to scale Ethereum. Technically speaking, Scroll is built upon two major pieces. The core piece is the zkEVM, which is used to prove the correctness of EVM execution in Layer 2. We have been building it in the open with the Privacy and Scaling Explorations group at the Ethereum Foundation for over a year. But to turn the zkEVM into a full zkRollup on the Ethereum, we also need to build a complete L2 architecture around it. In this post, we give an overview ...

📜Introducing Scroll – Technical principles
To scale Ethereum with our zkEVM-based zkRollup, we have designed Scroll based on a set of technical principles which uphold Scroll's core values. This post lays out these principles and how they relate to our broader design for Scroll.Our technical principles1. Ensuring user security In the context of blockchain scaling solutions, the most important form of security concerns the integrity of user funds and data. Although a scaling solution may offer users additional capabilities, we bel...

📜Announcing the Scroll pre-alpha testnet
After over a year of building our zkEVM-based zkRollup in close collaboration with the PSE (Privacy and Scaling Explorations) group at the Ethereum Foundation, we are releasing the pre-alpha version of Scroll for external testers! 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. We will invite as many testers as possible while ...

📜Introducing Scroll - Vision and Values
The promise of Ethereum is to build a decentralized computing platform widely accessible to all. Though it has come a long way towards achieving this vision, untenably high gas fees and frequent congestion on the current network present a significant challenge for true accessibility. Of course, the Ethereum community is aware of these issues and has adopted a rollup-centric roadmap to increase throughput. This roadmap focuses Ethereum on being the most decentralized settlement layer and moves...
