As previously reported by Coingape, Polygon has put forward its plans to launch the much-awaited zkEVM, a zero-knowledge Layer 2 scaling solution on the 27th of March. It will be a zero-knowledge or ZK-Rollup scaling solution that processes transactions faster on layer 2. zkEVM will allow for faster and cheaper transactions while putting an emphasis on security.
According to the blog post, Polygon went live with its zkEVM testnet allowing Ethereum developers to move over their smart contracts from the main blockchain without having to reprogram them in a different language.
Polygon is one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies since the beginning of this year. With an increase in open interest volume toward 2022 highs, many crypto traders are bullish on MATIC.
At the time of writing, the price of MATIC was $1.48, with a market capitalization of $12,914,154,264 and a 24-hour trading volume up by 66.77%. Now it stands at $1,413,587,615. At the same time, the circulating supply is approximately 8,734,317,475 MATIC coins as per the crypto market tracker CoinMarketCap.
