Prominent Ethereum development firms are engaging in healthy competition by introducing zero-knowledge scaling solutions. Polygon's co-founder, Jordi Baylina, highlighted the positive impact of this competition on the Ethereum ecosystem, emphasizing the ability to test different approaches and learn from failures. Polygon's zkEVM, which utilizes zero-knowledge proofs (ZK-proofs), has successfully reduced transaction costs and increased Ethereum's throughput. The network's adoption is growing, with around 250,000 active addresses and an increasing number of applications being built on the Polygon zkEVM. Developers' feedback and insights are driving improvements to the protocol, with real-world issues being addressed and long-term fixes in development. The zkEVM technology is seen as a significant breakthrough for Ethereum scaling.Ethereum Firms Compete with Zero-Knowledge Solutions for Scaling
