Taiko is a fully decentralized Ethereum-L2 ZK-Rollup that offers the most native way to scale Ethereum, by supporting different types of ZK-EVM opcodes in a layer-2 architecture that is decentralized, permissionless, and secure.
Vitalik Buterin described the development of Taiko as a “Fascinating Work”. Taiko is a Type-1 ZK-EVM, prioritising perfect EVM/Ethereum equivalence over ZK-proof generation speed.
