The freeware Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK) enables simple building and implementation of Ethereum Layer 2 networks based on Zero-knowledge (ZK) technology. Supernet idea is continued and existing Layer 1 networks are helped to move to Layer 2.
Easy proof-of-stake transactions, safe interoperability with the LXLY Bridge, and enhanced security with ZK technology are only a few of its features. Customizable, private blockchain development is also a possibility, and a special Data Availability Committee guarantees data integrity.
Competition from ZK Stack, OP Stack, and Arbitrum Orbit focuses on ZK-Rollups, whereas Polygon CDK offers quicker and more private transactions. Initiatives like Canto, Astar, and Manta Network have already implemented the CDK.
Supported by a $90 million development fund from Polygon Village, Polygon intends to establish governance and further decentralize its ecosystem with Polygon 2.0 and the new POL coin.
Below are five different projects using the CDK that are worth watching out for:
Known across the Japanese Web3 community, Astar now offers cross-chain transactions and reliable liquidity through an interface with Polygon’s new AggLayer.
Astar zkEVM allows Chain Development Kit (CDK) from Polygon to be used to build bespoke zero-knowledge blockchains. By employing Polygon zkEVM for smooth cross-chain transactions and accessing the liquidity of the Polygon ecosystem, this connection gives the appearance that everything is happening on a single chain.
Being the first Layer-2 chain to successfully link with Polygon’s AggLayer, Astar zkEVM is a major step forward for blockchain adoption and cross-chain interoperability between Polygon, Ethereum, and Astar Network. The unified bridge
