Optimistic Rollups vs Zero Knowledge (ZK) Rollups
š“ Optimistic Rollups is an Ethereum scaling solution that uses proof of fraud and runs on an EVM-compatible Optimistic Virtual Machine (OVM).
š£ ZK Rollups are the way to scale a blockchain using Zero-Knowledge proofs (STARKs or SNARKs). ZK Rollups prove the correctness of transactions without disclosing their content.
Let's compare two rollup solutions by the key metrics.
ZK Rollups slightly overtake Optimistic solutions in daily TPS, while Optimistic Rollups lead in TVL and 30D transactions.
