Taiko - Review

Taiko is a fully permissionless and decentralized ZK-Rollup equivalent to Ethereum. This means that using Taiko is the same as using Ethereum. Taiko not only supports all EVM opcodes, but also a full client API for performing JSON-RPC.

The project is an L2 that gets its security from Ethereum. It does not have a centralized sequencer or verifiers, all operations are performed without permission and are managed by the community.

Taiko offers different rollup solutions such us:

  • Based Contestable Rollup with a modular, multi-proof design;
  • Based Booster Rollup that scales natively and composes synchronously.
