Introducing the new, Sepolia-anchored testnet for Polygon PoS - Amoy testnet. Based on community feedback, Amoy has been launched as a low-stakes environment to build, test, and break things. Here's why. The Mumbai testnet for Polygon PoS depends on Ethereum’s Goerli as the…

Transaction fee calculations on Polygon zkEVM are changing. Today, effectiveGasPrice was enabled on Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta. The new mechanism uses the amount of execution in any given transaction and data availability to provide users with transaction fees that are more…

Polygon Miden uses recursive verification and aggregation to improve execution efficiency and overall throughput. For the Miden rollup, which is powered by the Miden VM, implementing recursive proof verification has to account for features not found in other ZK rollups,…

Interesting thread, but worth noting: Stylus wouldn't reduce fees for existing Ethereum applications. Parallel EVMs do reduce fees but not by increasing the number of cores. Quick 🧵on EVM+ and parallel EVM [1/5]

The Miden Compiler is being developed at Polygon Miden so that the rollup can support smart contracts written in Rust and possibly other developer friendly languages in the future. It can be useful in two ways: -As a compiler backend for existing languages that wish to target…

In the latest installment of @AvailProject 's whiteboard series, @bobbinth and @prabalbanerjee dive into core architectural concepts of Polygon Miden and the principles shaping the unique ZK rollup’s development. Full episode here: https://t.co/a20wksUWSO Polygon Miden,…

Developers building with Polygon CDK will soon be able to choose from multiple EVM clients for their chain: cdk-erigon will be the second high-performance execution client for Polygon CDK. With cdk-erigon, the ultra-fast, memory-optimized Erigon node is coming to zero-knowledge…

How is Web Assembly used at Polygon Miden? Some say it's “a new development paradigm for the web”. Let’s see how Polygon Miden leverages Web Assembly for its two main benefits: portability and flexibility. Portability The Miden VM is written entirely in Rust and can be compiled…

The @0xPolygonLabs portal is safe from ledger connect kit issue. You can continue using the Polygon portal as normal for bridging, staking, and other operations.

This week, the researchers and engineers building Polygon Miden completed a test version of the node that will manage the state of the rollup. This is what the Miden Node does and how it functions for user-generated state transitions. The basic functions of this first version of…

Any monolithic chain design cannot take web3 to planetary scale, multi independent state machine(aka multichain) with seamless cross chain interoperability is the only way to achieve internet level scale for Web3 L2s enable it @0xPolygon is building Planetary scale Infra for…

What an honour to announce Safe{RecoveryHub} at @0xPolygon Connect in Bangalore yesterday. Thanks @sandeepnailwal @0xAishwary for letting us crash the party with this major announcement for the year 🛟💜

To achieve parallel execution in Polygon Miden, researchers had to look beyond account-based systems like Ethereum to UTXO-based systems like Bitcoin and Zcash. The end result is a transaction model distinct among ZK rollups.

Whiteboard Series with NEAR | Ep: 51 Director of NEAR Protocol @BowenWang18 discusses Polygon zkEVM with @jbaylina , cofounder of @0xPolygonLabs . They unpack proving systems, polynomial commitments and L2/L1 interactions. You don't want to miss this.

The state model in Polygon Miden gives users the option to store their account and note data in two ways: 1. Public and on-chain 2. Private and off-chain These options create different degrees of privacy. With public storage, the data is on-chain and visible to everyone.…

Building a zero-knowledge rollup for client-side proving requires quite a bit of extra work: To have both parallel transaction execution and privacy, we need Notes and Nullifiers and a way of storing them that is privacy-preserving

100%, been saying this. Generalized fraud proofs are actually difficult and complex - how do you provably guarantee that the attacker can't put the dispute game in an unreachable state? ZKPs are complex due to immature tooling, but we're fixing this very quickly. Soon we'll…

REMINDER: The $POL Upgrade is now live on #Ethereum ⚡️ You can find the $POL contract at the following ENS: pol-token.eth Contract Address: 0x455e53CBB86018Ac2B8092FdCd39d8444aFFC3F6 Also find the migrator contract at the following ENS: migrator.pol-token.eth Contract Address: 0x29e7DF7b6A1B2b07b731457f499E1696c60E2C4e A notable list of DEXs have already integrated with the $POL contract internally, there you'll be able to utilize 1:1 swaps from $MATIC to $POL respectively: 🔸 https://www.paraswap.io/ 🔸 https://kyberswap.com/ 🔸 https://swap.cow.fi/ Steps to migrate: 👇🏻 1) Visit any of the above DEXs 2) Make sure you're on the #Ethereum mainnet 3) Make sure your wallet has some $ETH to cover gas fees 4) Select $MATIC to $POL (or vice versa) 5) Sign the transaction & complete the swap 📝 FAQ 1️⃣ Is there anything I need to do today as a Polygon PoS, Polygon zkEVM user or MATIC holder? Nothing. This upgrade does not change active systems on either the Polygon PoS or Polygon zkEVM networks at this time. All existing contracts will function as previously designed. If you would like to join the governance process and give your input, you can join the discussion on the forum. 2️⃣ Is there anything I need to do today as a node operator or staker? Nothing. You can provide feedback on the proposed changes in the PIPs and monitor Github and the forum for new node software versions to remain compatible with your given chain when PIPs are approved by the community. 3️⃣ Is there anything I need to do today as an application or tooling developer? Nothing. Please review the relevant PIPs, provide feedback on the proposed changes and analyze if any changes break your smart contracts. Developers for applications on the Polygon PoS should not see any breaking changes. 4️⃣ Is there anything I need to do if my $MATIC tokens are either on the Polygon PoS chain, or on any major CEX (ie: Binance, Coinbase, Kucoin, ByBit etc..)? Nothing. The process will be seamlessly automated and won't need any additional input from holders.
