What Is PolyGon zkEVM ? Polygon zkEVM is the first zk-Rollup with source code available, providing complete EVM opcode equivalence for a frictionless user experience and the security of Ethereum.

Polygon zkEVM uses advanced encryption, called proofs with zero disclosure, to reduce transaction fees and increase throughput while maintaining the security of Ethereum.
