Problem
Ethereum's scalability limitations lead to high transaction fees and slow processing times, hindering the widespread adoption of decentralized applications. Developers need a solution that maintains Ethereum's security while enabling faster and more cost-effective transactions.
Solution
Scroll is a zero-knowledge rollup (zk-rollup) designed to enhance Ethereum's scalability by enabling faster and more cost-effective transactions while inheriting Ethereum's security. By leveraging zk-rollup technology, Scroll bundles multiple transactions into a single proof, which is then verified on the Ethereum mainnet, significantly reducing gas costs and increasing transaction throughput. Scroll achieves bytecode-level compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), allowing developers to seamlessly deploy existing Ethereum applications without code modifications. This compatibility ensures a smooth transition for developers and users, fostering a more scalable and efficient Ethereum ecosystem.
Target Audience
Scroll primarily targets Ethereum developers seeking a scalable and EVM-compatible platform for deploying their decentralized applications, as well as users who desire faster and cheaper transactions within the Ethereum ecosystem.
