Optimistic-rollups-based solutions Arbitrum and Optimism reduce transaction costs by up to 90\u201399%. According to Arcane Research analysts, layer-2 solutions will enable<\/a> widespread adoption of Ethereum without sacrificing decentralisation and security.<\/p>\n

According to experts, zkRollup-based solutions that do not yet offer EVM compatibility could also cut transaction costs by up to 99%, to $0.1\u2013$1.<\/p>\n

Unlike Optimistic rollups, zkRollups projects such as StarkNet and zkSync shorten transaction finalisation from more than a week to roughly ten minutes.<\/p>\n

According to L2Beat<\/a>, the value of assets locked in L2 solutions reached $5.37 billion.<\/p>\n

Leading is Arbitrum with a TVL<\/span> of $2.77 billion. Analysts attributed the high figure to the project\u2019s emphasis on a higher degree of network security.<\/p>\n

In November, the Matter Labs startup, behind the zkSync second-layer solution built on zkRollup technology, raised $50 million<\/a> in a Series B round.<\/p>\n

In August, Polygon acquired<\/a> the Hermez Network platform, which specialises in scaling solutions based on ZK-Rollups.<\/p>\n
