Credit to ZKsync (∎, ∆) for the transparency and for dealing with this admirably. 💪 To anyone tempted to be critical, this could happen to *any* L2 (including Polygon). We're all working to ensure greater stability as we scale Ethereum.

I'm honoured to have been involved with Polygon zkEVM audit. They're one of the best protocols to work with in the space and I have a lot of respect for the team's professionalism.

I had a debate with Ed Felten a few weeks ago - I asserted that optimistic rollups have fundamental disadvantages: 1) They don’t work well for L3s 2) 3rd party bridges don't work well during periods of volatility Ed disagreed! I don’t want to FUD, so here's the argument. [1/n]

Polygon #zkEVM and EVM-equivalence: go.polygon.technology/3A5z5uh

I will give a talk on Wednesday on Polygon Miden

Introducing Polygon Bridge to Polygon #zkEVM 👉🏽 Better Bridge 👉🏽 ‍Fast Finality 👉🏽 Asset Support 👉🏽 No Mapping Required More: go.polygon.technology/440Ul1Y

In April, the daily avg gas on Polygon #zkEVM was 7X cheaper than Ethereum Mainnet, even during periods of peak network activity. Want to know which growth metrics were +300% this month? Follow the thread👇🏽

1/ Our vision for Polygon is simple: to build the Value Layer of the Internet. The Internet allows anyone to create and exchange information. The Value Layer allows anyone to create, exchange, and program value. Enter Polygon 2.0: a blueprint to build the ultimate Value Layer.

I believe Polygon did an really interesting thing by acquiring Hermez, Mir (zero), Miden and making them collaborators instead of competitors. This was a huge win for Polygon and I believe for these teams too. Interested to see if others will follow the same approach.

At @0xPolygonLabs we're less focused on definitions and semantics, more on building industry-leading ZK technology and pushing the space forward.

Polygon Labs folks are absolute beast in execution. - Launched as a sidechain, hustled their way to the top. - Started the ecosystem LM campaign with Aave. - Built a $$ treasury - Leveraged it to do strategic acquisitions and pivot (90% of which fail) - 18 months, launch a

There are questions about how we are going to accomplish what we have proposed in the blog. As VP of Community & Governance at Polygon Labs, as well as the self-appointed hot dog eating champion of Polygon Labs (no contest yet, but I can eat up to 3), I want to provide clarity.

This is well known but the analogue of the FFT for multilinear polynomials is the Walsh-Hadamard transform, and it is surprisingly simple.

Thank you to the ZK and crypto communities for your support. It was amazing to see the pioneers of ZK scaling, the inventors of STARKs and PLONK (the foundation of our work, including Plonky2), speak out to uphold the open source ethos.
