zkSync Era scales Ethereum via ZK-Rollups, using zero-knowledge proofs for trustless, secure transactions. Its zkEVM supports 100% Ethereum opcode compatibility, enabling native account abstraction and Solidity/Vyper smart contracts. The LLVM compiler extends support to Rust/C++, empowering developers to build with lower fees (gas costs 80% cheaper than Ethereum) and Ethereum-grade security.

zkSync Era processes 2,000+ TPS with near-instant finality (10 minutes to Ethereum), reducing gas fees to $0.01-0.03 per swap. Its ZK-proof compression slashes data costs by 90%, while account abstraction (paymasters, session keys) streamlines user onboarding. Over 200M+ transactions since 2023 cement its role as the fastest-growing ZK Layer2.

With $1B+ TVL, zkSync Era hosts Uniswap V3, 1inch, and PancakeSwap, alongside native projects like SyncSwap and EZKL. Strategic partnerships with Chainlink, Pyth, and gaming giants like Mythical Games fuel its DeFi and Web3 gaming verticals. ZK token (upcoming) will govern the network, incentivizing staking and protocol upgrades.
