Polygon’s ZK-rollup Ethereum scaler Miden hits testnet
The Ethereum layer-2 scaling solutions provider is going up against StarkWare’s tech stack Starknet.
Ethereum layer-2 developer Polygon has launched an alpha version testnet of its latest zero-knowledge rollup (ZK-rollup) solution called Miden as the Ethereum scaling competition heats up.
In a May 6 X post, Polygon said the Polygon Miden Alpha Testnet zero-knowledge was live for developers to begin testing. Miden is a ZK-rollup designed to extend the capabilities of the Ethereum blockchain.
Polygon’s latest solution — like other ZK-rollups — uses a type of cryptography where data can be verified or “proved” without revealing what the data consists of to the rest of the network.
