The rollup chain from ConsenSys, known as a zkEVM, joins a growing field of projects aiming to expand access to Ethereum using zero-knowledge cryptography skesslr reports
Many existing layer 2 networks, like Arbitrum and Optimism, have “airdropped” tokens to early users after launching to the main Ethereum network. The tokens could be sold for a quick profit or used as votes to help govern updates to the protocol; dangling the prospect of an airdrop is seen as a way of encouraging users to try out new networks.
There has long been speculation that ConsenSys might eventually launch a token for Linea. While Liochon wouldn’t count out the possibility of a Linea token, he said that if it ever does arrive, it won’t be for a while. “What do we want to do? Do we want to get rich quickly, or do we want to build something?” asked Liochion. “Yeah, basically, I think that we should build things.”Linea’s launch comes after zkSync and Polygon, the first two zkEVM networks to launch on Ethereum’s mainnet, allowing coders to clone their code to spin up their own rollup networks.
ConsenSys says Linea will become fully open-source in the coming weeks, meaning developers will be able to freely use its code . Zero-knowledge rollup technology is new and still advancing. As Linea enters its alpha launch, it will still have certain points of centralization in its system – which Liochon refers to as “For now, ConsenSys will still be the only party allowed to submit zero-knowledge proofs to Linea’s smart contracts on Ethereum.
