Linea: Next Generation EVM-Compatible Blockchain Scaling Solution

Linea is an EVM-compatible layer 2 solution that uses Zk-rollup technology. As a representative of a new generation of Blockchain scaling technology, Linea has the following notable features:

  1. Using zk-rollup technology, it has higher scalability and security compared to optimistic rollup.

  2. Achieved bytecode-level equivalence with EVM, which enables it to be fully compatible with the Ethereum ecosystem and quickly adapt to changes in the EVM specifications.

  3. Combine zero-knowledge proofs with full EVM equivalence, allowing developers to directly migrate existing dapps or build new scalable dapps without the need to modify code or rewrite smart contracts.
