About Polygon Labs & Polygon zkEVM

Polygon Labs develops Ethereum scaling solutions for Polygon protocols. Polygon Labs engages with other ecosystem developers to help make available scalable, affordable, secure and sustainable blockchain infrastructure for web3. Polygon Labs has initially developed a growing suite of protocols for developers to gain easy access to major scaling solutions, including Layer 2s (zero-knowledge rollups), sidechains, app-specific chains and data availability protocols.

Polygon zkEVM is a ZK rollup that functions as a Layer 2 network of the EVM. Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta is compatible with the EVM, supporting the majority of Ethereum EIPs, pre-compiles, and opcodes, allowing developers to seamlessly deploy smart contracts, tools, and wallets that already work on Ethereum, but in an environment with significantly lower costs.
