2/ First up, zkSyncโa layer-2 scaling solution using zk-Rollups. It aggregates transactions into a single batch, reducing the data processed on Ethereum. This means faster transactions and lower costs. But how exactly does it keep security tight while doing this? ๐ค

3/ Then there's zkEVMโspecifically designed to be fully compatible with Ethereum's own EVM. This means you can run any Ethereum dApp without changes! It also uses zk-Rollups for scaling. The dream? To combine Ethereum's capabilities with the speed and efficiency of zk tech.

4/ Compatibility is a big plus with zkEVM. Unlike other solutions that might require some tweaks to existing contracts, zkEVM aims to let devs migrate seamlessly. This could be a game-changer for developers looking to scale quickly and affordably. ๐ก

5/ But here's where I need your insights: how are zkSync and zkEVM different in handling transactions and reducing costs in practice? I've read about theoretical benefits, but real-world applications and examples would help a lot. ๐
