Benefits of Scroll
Instant Finality
In the case of zk-Rollups, asset withdrawals to the base chain can be instantaneous because the transactions are already validated through the usage of zero-knowledge proofs.

About Scroll

Scroll is a zkEVM-based zkRollup on Ethereum that enables native compatibility for existing Ethereum applications and tools. Scroll relies on zkEVM as its primary component to demonstrate the native EVM implementation trace, and it employs a decentralized proving network to address the issue of prover efficiency. This eliminates the trade-off between security and scale using zero-knowledge protocols, providing the best option for blockchain users and developers -- minimum trust assumptions, quick finality, and smooth migration from the base layer.

Scroll aims to scale blockchains so that it can be accessible for billions of users. This requires making them both scalable and cheap enough to be accessible for all as well as being secure and easy-to-use for the ordinary user. It is crucial to maintain the fundamental characteristics of decentralization and censorship resistance that make Ethereum so potent while working towards greater blockchain scaling. The ultimate objective of Scroll is to reach the same degrees of decentralization and censorship resilience as base layer Ethereum.

Blast Features for Scroll Developers

Core API

Blast custom APIs offer optimized throughput and reduced latency for transactions on Scroll and enable access to real-time data, transaction history and network status.

Included with all plans

Debug API

The Debug API gives Scroll developers access to several non-standard RPC methods, which will allow them to inspect, debug and set certain debugging flags during runtime.

Included with Developer, Startup, Enterprise & Pay As You Go plans

Archive Nodes

These nodes retain all historical transaction information on the Scroll blockchain from the genesis block to the present, enabling users to query and retrieve any past information. The Archive Nodes feature is enabled starting with the Developer plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are zk-rollups?

zk-Rollups are a blockchain scaling solution that groups multiple transactions into one, reducing the load on the main network. They utilize zero-knowledge proofs, a cryptographic method allowing for transaction validation without revealing their details. This ensures transaction privacy and security.

Is Scroll a modular network?

Yes, it comprises three layers: the settlement layer, the sequencing layer and the proving layer.

How do I start building on Scroll with Blast?

Simply click on Launch App, connect your wallet and get access to dedicated endpoints that you can organize into projects depending on your development needs.
