Layer 2 solutions are essential for scaling blockchain networks, but the industry is divided between Optimistic Rollups and Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Chains. While Optimistic Rollups prioritize compatibility and cost-efficiency, ZK Chains offer stronger privacy, security, and finality. In this panel, experts will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, the trade-offs between scalability and decentralization, and which solution is best suited for the next generation of Web3 applications.
